Help - I'm really thick! |
|
I have tried following rarsa's instructions and gone through this thread numerous times however with limited success in file sharing.
Problem 1 - Seeing my XP machine
Linneighbourhood works great => no problems
In Lineighbourhood I can see the following
Service: //DININGROOM/Denise
Mountpoint: /root/mnt/DININGROOM/Denise
Command line => problems
I tried the following commands
smbmount //192.168.0.188/Denise/mnt/DININGROOM
result = cannot resolve mount point
smbmount//192.168.0.188/Denise/mnt/DININGROOM
result = no such file or directory
I'm still not sure if there should be a space between smbmount and //
After reading further in the post I tried various permutations of the smbmount command as above with the exception being that I replaced the IP address with DININGROOM (the computer name) with results similar to the above.
HELP PLEASE
Problem 2 - Seeing Puppy via my XP machine - SOLVED (see below)
I again followed the instructions in the thread.
I tried to add a user named "localuser" via the following command
adduser -h/root localuser
result = login already in use
I tried to add a user named "share" via thr following command
adduser -h/root share
result = SUCCESS
I then added name and password and optimism was high.
I went to my XP machine and explored to this location but the only thing I can see is the readme file called betaftpd.anon
How do I see my files and where do I enter this username and password information?
PLEASE HELP!
*After posting I played some more on my XP machine and found "Login as... in the file menu. Oops
Hurray, I can see all of my files both ways. No it's just the command line so that I can make this available with start-up

If your xp machine is //192.168.0.188/Denise
and you have a directory /mnt/DININGROOM on your puppy box.
Then:
Code: | smbmount //192.168.0.188/Denise /mnt/DININGROOM |
should work.
note the <space> after Denise.

Very nice Howto, it should be added to Linuxneighbourhood in Puppy.
I have a problem though:
Connecting to the XP-machine works fine, and I can copy files among Puppy and XP.
But special characters are shown wrong.
As this is a common problem in applications based on Gtk1 (Rox-filer 1.2), I tried it in the Gnome-Filemanager Nautilus (that can display unicode, as it is based on Gtk2).
Still no joy, even after installing some truetype-fonts (the free dejavu, and tahoma from Windows).
In Nautilus, I can create a file like test-.txt.
But in Windows, it displays as test-.txt.
If I create such a file test-.txt in Windows, Nautilus displays it as
test2-.txt
So the "" is replaced with a unicode-placeholder "0081".
Does someone know, if there maybe is a parameter that can be used to mount the share with a different charset or codepage?

ok, without linneighbourhood I found a solution:
smbmount //MACHINE/folder /root/mnt/MACHINE/folder -o guest,codepage=cp437
I'm writing a script at work that scans the network for shares, and then automatically mounts all available folders in /root/LocalNetwork/ (those without password). Will continue/finish it in 2 days I think.
this is how the script looks like at moment:
http://dotpups.de/tests/Muppy-SMB
It does not work at moment, as I added some test-code, and were interrupted then.

Wow, it's an improved smblogin script.
Just tell me Mark when its ready, I'll be glad to test it.

Very interesting, Mark. Your script looks like a good example of what can be done with PuppyBasic.
Hmm, I have been planning to write a script that will run on a MicroClientJr with a remote control interface to turn house lamps on and off. PuppyBasic looks like it might be a good candidate for the job!

This looks pretty complicated. You are getting into some RFC level stuff here.
Here are some links I stumbled on:
http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/unicode.html
http://www.adaptec.com/en-US/_whitepapers/tech/etherstor/unicode_wp.htm#4.1
http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba-technical/2005-July/042008.html
http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba-technical/2005-July/042010.html
http://lists.samba.org/archive/jcifs/2003-January/001721.html
http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mplayer-users/2003-July/034818.html
Perhaps it's been worked out since then? Last time I got down to the socket/character level was about three years ago.
It sure would be great to make sure Puppy had this worked out, if it's a problem.

my script will not work because of a logical error
I wanted to use netstat, to determine the PCs, that are in the network.
Then I could try to run smbclient on the found IP-adresses, to look up, if there are Shares.
This worked during my first test, as I already were connected to the XP machine using LinNeighbourHood or smbclient.
But if you don't run those first, the XP-machine is not visible in netstat.
So of course my "auto-detection" can not work.
I found no solution yet.
Only a hint, that in KDE you can type smb:/ in Konqueror, to list all Windows-shares.
So it must be possible somehow, the question is:
how do I do it without the KDE-mechanisms?
More googling and tests are required, don't expect a quick solution.

Thanks G2, as usual a brilliant suggestions
I found it in the samba-dotpup from sunburnt.
Runs without error after creating a symlink, so you don't need to install the whole huge dotpup.
You can get it here:
http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Network/samba-utilities/
I will test it on monday at work.
Thanks!

no, findsmb did not work either.
But it seems that "smbtree" can be used.
./smbtree -N| tr -s " "|cut -f2|grep '\\'
This will list the host.
example:
Code: | sh-3.00# ./smbtree -N| tr -s " "|cut -f2|grep '\\'
\\TORSTEN
sh-3.00# |
To find the folders:
Code: | sh-3.00# ./smbtree -N| tr -s " "|cut -f3|grep '\\'
\\TORSTEN\Kyocera
\\TORSTEN\Dokumente
\\TORSTEN\C
\\TORSTEN\Exceldateien
\\TORSTEN\HPOffice
\\TORSTEN\print$
\\TORSTEN\SharedDocs
\\TORSTEN\IPC$
sh-3.00# |
I uploaded the binary.

Muppy-SMB to find and mount Windows shared folders

Dear Friends
I tried to follow these steps once again after my xp installations and upgrading to puppy 2.14 (to let puppy see a windows share folder). LinNeighborhood displays this after I try to scan as user:
Quote: | Error returning browse list: NT_STATUS_OK |
I tried to google this, but information I found is simply too complicated for a casual user like me. Could someone be so kind and help me with this? Thank You very much in advance.

Hi giac_fab; I assume you want to stream from the Puppy PC to other local PCs?
One way is to install the Samba server, Puppy & Win. PCs can use the shares.
MU's package is: Muppy-SMB
