That's okay... English is a vastly overrated language.

And one of the hardest to learn I hear, it's really quite a mess of exceptions.

Hi, thanks for the great step by step but apparently either my puppy laptop or the windows server at my work doesn't play well with others. LinNeighborhood will only display the server name but won't let me at the shared folders that I need, and when I try the command line method I get the following error:

cli_negprot: SMB signing is mandatory and we have disabled it.
8871: protocol negotiation failed
SMB connection failed


Can someone help me fix this? I'm pretty new to linux so keep it simple for me Thanks in advance for your help!

-linneighborhood is opened.

So I've created a new user and assigned their home to an external drive mapped under /mnt/<drivename>. When I login using FTP from an XP machine I am able to see all the files, but I cannot upload new files. The error says something about not having permissions to perform the action. Is there a way that I can enable read-write access to this drive via FTP for this user? I've tried having the new user assigned as the owner of the drive, but was unsuccessful (possibly my command syntax was incorrect). Thanks!

on your puppy menu, click: start-network-RUN-PUREFTPD FTP Server

UNCHECK -- A: Users can only see their files

hope that works.

So the problem ended up being that by default the mounter that puppy used would only mount USB drives in read only mode. I added a setting to the /etc/fstab file that specified the file should be mounted in Read-Write mode and that fixed it.

Of course then I upgraded to the next version of puppy which didn't have the same mount script and so everything worked without the need for an entry in the /etc/fstab file (go figure).

For anyone else having this problem you'll need to create an entry in your /etc/fstab file similar to the following:

I'm trying to mount an SMB FS share from a Mac Mini with Puppy 2.16.

This works:

Well done I didn't realise that you could use smbmount to provide the necessary extension for mount.

Hello,
(translation on line)
Tests of doggie linux with Cd live and safeguards my data on my hard disk. The access to the PC is good I reads and writes above. But when I test what you wrote for the order of adduser that does not function at home as this image shows it.

I have to create in French a tuto explaining my different problems here .

(original text)
Essais de toutou linux avec le cd live et sauvegarde de mes données sur mon disque dur.
L'accès au PC est bon je lis et écris dessus.
Mais quand j'essaye ce que tu as écrit pour la commande de adduser ça ne fonctionne pas chez moi comme le montre cette image.

J'ai créer en français un tuto expliquant mes différent problèmes ici.

It's strange that you want to make / your start folder but I will trust that you know what you are doing.

Have you tried adding the option -H?

[vezuve]

Thank you to answer me, but its does not function.
I will try to give more details, I take again since the beginning the procedure: By taking your example:
To add has to use called “mp3shares” that will share /root/my-music:
Code: adduser - H /root/my-music mp3shares
Me I have to create in root (or this finds “my document”) a file that jet named “Linux” By taking your example and with my own criterion the line of order that I written board is as follows:
Adduser - h /root/Linux toma or Adduser - H - h /root/Linux toma and there that does not function !
As long as I do not know how to create a user with his password Windows cannot see doggie linux

original texte
Merci de me répondre, mais sa ne fonctionne pas.
Je vais essayer de donner plus de détails, je reprends depuis le début la procédure:
En prenant ton exemple :
To add a user called "mp3shares" that will share /root/my-music:
Code: adduser -h /root/my-music mp3shares
Moi j'ai créer dans root (ou ce trouve "my document") un dossier que jais nommé "Linux"
En prenant ton exemple et avec mes propre critère la ligne de commande que j'ais écrit est la suivante:
Adduser –h /root/Linux toma ou Adduser –H –h /root/Linux toma et là ça ne fonctionne pas !
Tant que je ne sais pas comment créer un utilisateur avec son mot de passe windows ne peut voir toutou linux

BusyBox adduser is broken in Puppy 3.
