I am trying to get XBMC (the program, not am Xbox) up and running and I am having some issues...
I have Karmic installed on my home computer (the home computer is going to act as my server because it holds my files)... I also have Karmic installed on an Asrock nettop (http://www.asrock.com/nettop/overvie...ION%20330HT-BD)...
My goal here is to be able to add the "source" location on my home computer to the Asrock machine... Both have XBMC installed on them... I have the Asrock hooked up to my TV as a media canter...
I can not seem to get the home machine visible to the Asrock machine... I have Samba installed on the home machine... Here is a copy of my conf file:
[global]
; General server settings
netbios name = shiloh
server string =
workgroup = WORKGROUP
announce version = 5.0
socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_KEEPALIVE SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
interfaces = lo, eth0
bind interfaces only = true
passdb backend = tdbsam
security = user
null passwords = true
username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
name resolve order = hosts wins bcast
wins support = yes
printing = CUPS
printcap name = CUPS
syslog = 1
syslog only = yes
; NOTE: If you need access to the user home directories uncomment the
; lines below and adjust the settings to your hearts content.
;[homes]
;valid users = %S
;create mode = 0600
;directory mode = 0755
;browseable = no
;read only = no
;veto files = /*.{*}/.*/mail/bin/
; NOTE: Only needed if you run samba as a primary domain controller.
; Not needed as this config doesn't cover that matter.
;[netlogon]
;path = /var/lib/samba/netlogon
;admin users = Administrator
;valid users = %U
;read only = no
; NOTE: Again - only needed if you're running a primary domain controller.
;[Profiles]
;path = /var/lib/samba/profiles
;valid users = %U
;create mode = 0600
;directory mode = 0700
;writeable = yes
;browseable = no
; NOTE: Inside this place you may build a printer driver repository for

[print$]
path = /var/lib/samba/printers
browseable = yes
guest ok = yes
read only = yes
write list = root
create mask = 0664
directory mask = 0775
[printers]
path = /tmp
printable = yes
guest ok = yes
browseable = no
; Uncomment if you need to share your CD-/DVD-ROM Drive
;[DVD-ROM Drive]
;path = /media/cdrom
;browseable = yes
;read only = yes
;guest ok = yes
[MyFiles]
path = /home/samba/
browseable = yes
read only = no
guest ok = no
create mask = 0644
directory mask = 0755
force user = shiloh
force group = shiloh
Am I supposed to have Samba installed on both machines or just the "server" machine?
The only hang up can't seem to figure out is the sharing aspect of this... All the posts I have read seem to talk about how to share from a windows machine to a linux, but not from Linux machine to Linux machine... In playing with this I was able to add a server connection between the two with ssh, but that does not get me by because the XBMC machine can't see the ssh connection... It needs to be a SMB share...
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated...
