Yeah that would've been a typo on my part..hahaha.

I have a feeling its a permission issue at the Linux level but I'm not familiar with changing that.

I have run from the terminal the following...

Frustration with this issue is mounting and I'm fairly new when it comes to Samba and Ubuntu in general but I have 2 users setup on my Ubuntu box, user1 and user2. These same two users are added...

So my system currently has 2 users, User1 and User2. I have 2 external drives that mounted automatically on logon for User1. I have created a samba share to these drives. From Win7, User1 can login...

To follow up on some observations, if I go to Network and press Ctrl + L and type in the following:

smb://192.168.1.203, I can connect to machine 1.

But when clicking on the homes folder, it...

Alright, 3 machines running, two using Ubuntu 11.10 and one on Mac OS X.

On the two Ubuntu machines, both have samba installed and configured on the same workgroup, "HOME".

On machine 1, I can...

So, I have 2 machines running.

1. Ubuntu 11.10 desktop (acting as the server)
2. Ubuntu 10.04 server (acting as the client)

Obviously I want my desktop to be the server and the server to be...

No problem...thread marked as solved.

I appreciate the help...thanks!

Is there an option in 11.10 to prompt a user to change their password? Like every 30 days or setup amount of days. Similar to those who use Windows Professional it'll prompt you saying your password...

I've had a few issues but they seemed to have fixed themselves.

One big thing was my desktop would never load properly, even locked up a handful of times. After a couple reboots the desktop...

When running a handful of programs, one in particular is the Samba program, a box appears asking for the administrative password. So I assumed it was the same password I entered when I first...

Im experiencing the same issue. I'm trying to run the Samba gui program and it keeps asking for the administrative password. Well I keep entering it correctly and refuses it each time. And no, the...

This Terminal Server Client looks very similar to the Windows counter part, but I've read it doesn't work well in 11.10.

What more information would you like?

I'm still fairly new when it comes to this stuff, so I can help give you as much information I can, I just dont know what you need.

Connection maybe firewalled at the other end? Would this be tied to the OS?

Reason I ask, is I can VPN and log into my machine from Windows, using Cisco VPN and Remote Desktop Connection, so I...

Ok, so I finally figured out how to connect to a VPN in Ubuntu. I open up Remote Desktop Viewer, enter some information and I either get a black screen or a blank screen, never fully seeing the other...

To follow up, I think I setup the VPN connection correctly, but how do I connect to it? I keep click on the connection but I really cant tell it connects plus the connections for last used says never.

I completely forgot about this post and it seems like I'm having the same issue again when it comes to 11.04.

I keep getting the "no active connections found" and there are entries in the...

Thanks! Yeah not knowing that 11.10 used LightDM, I didn't scroll down far enough. But thanks again.

So I currently use Cisco VPN client to connect to my work PC. I am in the process of converting my machine to Ubuntu, is there any similar VPN clients I can use?

I also have a .pcf file associated...

I've only been using Ubuntu 11.1o for a few days now, but each time I use the sudo command to open or edit files, I get these Gtk warnings, stating attempting to store changes, attempting to set...

Nevermind, I think I found what I needed. Thanks for explaining why I was missing those folders.

Yes, I'm using Ubuntu 11.10.

Sorry, I completely forgot my old username and password...hahaha...what an idiot.

So what location should I be looking for to edit this file?

Oh just to clarify, when using the mirror display, everything works fine. As soon as I take off the mirror display it gets all funky.

To me it seems like a driver, but I just don't know.
