I'm sorry to have to tell you that I long ago removed the WD software and I now run native Debian Linux on my MyCloud, which gives me far me control and the machine is no longer frequently CPU-bound...

You simply need to type "id -u username" where username is whoever you need to be able to access the server. The default user on the pi is often "pi" but it depends on the distro and also how it was...

Please post a copy of your exports file.

@jeb5

I'm glad this helped and thanks for the feedback. It's all about passing information on and learning.

:D

The system won't let you change the UID of a user when that user has processes running. To find out what is running, type

ps aux|grep 2190 or whatever PID you are now getting in the message You...

@all

Thanks for the replies. So the rule is that if you want to print something that people may want to copy and paste. always use CODE/HTML/PHP. The position of the added space depends on the...

If I put the following two lines in code tags, spaces are added at char position 64:

/nfs/Public *(rw,all_squash,sync,no_subtree_check,insecure,crossmnt,anonuid=65534,anongid=1000)
/nfs/janm...

I don't think there's an easy fix. Personally I would make a copy of your /home, list all your installed programs and reinstall as your system is currently world-readable. You could reset permissions...

I have to say I have absolutely no idea what is going on. What are "ctiadmin" and "monuid?" Have you set up aliases? Also, in some lines you have "cro ssmnt" with either a space or a non-printable...

I presume you are at step 8 and you are using Method 2...? So:
Ensure you are in the /etc directory with
cd etc
Delete the line you made in error with
sed 'amonuid/d' exports
Set your newid...

To save cluttering up the thread, just to let you know that...

Hi Simon

You need to ensure you have write access to wherever it is you are trying to create the mount point. If it is (or they are) in your home directory, as in my example
mkdir -p ~/nas/Public...

@Icreed Many thanks for this. I knew about it as Wormbuntu had this exact problem just last week and I hadn't got round to adding it. I have now added a section 12a above, using your notes.

OMV is NAS software. If you want a media server just install clean Debian and then miniDNLA (which seems to be the favourite).

Just to let you know (and anyone else that reads this) there's no need to take the drive apart to install vanilla Debian or revert back to the WD firmware. You only need to do that if you attempt...

Yes, all the hard work has been done by member Fox_exe, a Russian who really knows what he is doing. The instructions are on the first page of the posts and he updates them when necessary. He has...

Nothing in the procedure should affect Samba as NFS and Samba are unrelated. The Samba config is all done from the Web-based GUI, so I would start by checking the settings there.

If you reset your...

All of them, though I have not tested it with the latest firmware. It seems WD is trying to lock down the system and as its performance is so poor I no longer use the WD "firmware" as they call it. I...

Press the reset button on the back and hold it for 4 seconds (it's above the USB port, and it's recessed, so you will need a straightened paperclip or similar).

BTW This is in the user manual.

@wormbuntu

I'm glad it's all working for you.

The reason I use NFS are
1. I was brought up on NFS under IBM AIX, which was around and long established before Samba.
2. Have you compared the...

@em3raldxiii



FYI the correct location for your scripts is /home/user/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/ for Nautilus. If you look there you will see a link to the audio convert program like this:

@wormbuntu

Your UID is 1001 and GID is 1000. It would probably be better to change the UID of the user on the NAS server as in step 12 above, but bear in mind that if you have any files or folders...

Check your name resolution. It looks as though your localhost does not correspond to a unique IP. Try where hostname is the host name of your server.

@ofnuts

Thanks for the reply.

I agree that using a file's time stamp may not always be the best way of determining its creation time. However in my case it's the only way, as I am using an Rpi...

@Holger_Gehrke

Thanks for the response.

I agree that convert's problem is deciding what the parameters are. However, the parallel command with the -v switch echoes the correct convert syntax,...
