    [ubuntu] Re: cant connect to samba server

    Make the share more permissive. Once it works, then you can dial back the permissions.

    [ubuntu] Re: cant connect to samba server

    OK, I would ensure the port for samba is open/listening and perhaps look at the post above mine. I'm not sure if WINS would affect your issue, but they seem to believe so - it's worth a shot.

    Well I would start small - which it sounds like you've done. You can run ALL the same services on an Ubuntu Desktop system as you can an Ubuntu Server edition. The main difference between the two...

    [ubuntu] Re: cant connect to samba server

    So did anything change? Just updates? Did you make any changes to samba?

    Have you tried restarting samba?

    I have a much more permissive setup, so my config might not be the best example, but...

    [ubuntu] Re: 12.10 differences

    As the previous post stated, for the server platform it's always recommended to stick to LTS releases.

    I would recommend sticking to 12.04, and upgrade to 14.04 when that comes around a couple of...

    [ubuntu] Re: PXE Boot from ISO file?

    Is there something like this for Linux? Obviously without the GUI, but still. Would be nice if you could get dnsmasq to do something similar - because that is slick.

    [ubuntu] Re: File Server Help

    Yes, it is a good option for over the WAN. It's called 'SFTP' or secure file transfer protocol. It's based on SSH - so if you have SSH setup, you also have SFTP setup.

    [ubuntu] Re: File Server Help

    SSH would be useful for accessing and managing the server itself.

    If you just want to access the files and are on a LAN, look at NFS or Samba to share files on a LAN.

    However, SSH does have...

    [ubuntu] Re: Ubuntu desktop vs server

    This is potentially dangerous advice, as some people would misconstrue this as "apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" which is NOT right.

    [ubuntu] Re: Ubuntu desktop vs server

    Same repo's. The server version has A LOT less gunk installed - obviously, as there's no GUI.

    So just think of Ubuntu Server as a really stripped, lean and mean version of Ubuntu Desktop -...
  16. [ubuntu] Re: How to install Gnome in Ubuntu 10.04 LTS server

  19. [ubuntu] Re: How to install Gnome in Ubuntu 10.04 LTS server

    The server will run better, and honestly be less vulnerable if you leave the desktop environment off of it.

    However, if you're perplexed on the ssh -X command, it might be because that command is...

    [SOLVED] Re: CRON problem with flexget

    I'm running flexget/cron as my user... so are you doing a 'sudo fleget' when you're testing, or just 'flexget'?

    I basically have the same command, but again in my user's crontab, not root's.
