pnethood at wary 5.1.2
I am using pnethood on wary 5.1.2.
I am able to see all computers in windows network. However, after selecting the computer to connect, pnetthood takes too long (30-40 seconds) to probe that computer for shared resources. As such, I want to create a short cut icon on my desktop so that each time i want to go to get a file on other computer, I dont have to click too much. How to do this ?
Wish list : It would be better if you can just click on the computer's name instead of click "ok" to select that computer. Also, probing time of the selected computer can be made shorter.

You dont need Pnethood.
If you know the location of the the folder you can use something like.
mount -t cifs //USER-NBCVDQZ5JP/tvshows /mnt/share -o ,password=%20,rw,iocharset=utf8
Just edit the computer name and the folder paths.
I made a small bash script that i keep on the desktop (Rox pinboard) thats mounts and unmounts a network folder . Its a lot faster
Edit it to you liking, save it as "networkshare.sh", and make it excutable!
Here it is
#!/bin/sh
# A quick and easy way to access a local network share folder
# You need change the computername/folder/password "%20" = no password
answer=$(xmessage "Are you sure you want to mount / umount windows network drive? " -buttons Yes,No -print)
if [ $answer = "Yes" ]
then
answer=$(xmessage "Are you sure you want to mount windows network drive? " -buttons Mount,Unmount -print)
fi
if [ $answer = "Mount" ]
then
xmessage "Mounting XP share in /mnt/share !"
mount -t cifs //USER-NBCVDQZ5JP/tvshows /mnt/share -o ,password=%20,rw,iocharset=utf8
fi
if [ $answer = "Unmount" ]
then
xmessage "XP Share is unmounted !"
umount /mnt/share
fi

Thank you for you kind words p310don, I hope to continue improving pnethood. I'm focusing in graphic interface improvements for the next release.p310don wrote:Clarf
Thanks for this. I really like pnethood, probably because I am most used to it. The standard in 5.25 causes the network to hang for about a minute while is probes, but this updated version doesn't have that issue. Awesome.
Thanks
Now that thunor has updated gtkdialog source (http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=69188) I can add more room for shares .
Just adding the following code:
line 416 add:
Code: Select all
PNETHOOD_GUI=$PNETHOOD_GUI"<vbox scrollable="true">"
Code: Select all
PNETHOOD_GUI=$PNETHOOD_GUI"</vbox>"
Best regards,
clarf
