I'm setting up a new Kubuntu laptop. problem 1: When I run samba, I get: could not find the program 'gksu' I googled and learned that gksu is depricated, but I haven't been able to figure out how to run samba. Also: sudo system-config-samba says there are MANY errors in /etc/samba/smb.conf which is strange because I didn't edit the existing file.
problem 2: I usually mount a shared drive on my Raspberry Pi with the following fstab entry: //pi/PI-PUBLIC /mnt/PI-PUBLIC cifs user,credentials=/etc/samba/auth.pi.solomon 0 0 Since I don't have samba running, I did: //pi/PI-PUBLIC /mnt/PI-PUBLIC cifs username=solomon,password=abc,rw,user 0 0 When I look at files on the mounted drive, the owner and permissions are wrong. For example a file that should be: -rw-rw-r-- 1 solomon solomon 34 Jul 11 09:55 tst.txt looks like this: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 34 Jul 11 09:55 tst.txt -- Shlomo Solomon http://the-solomons.net Claws Mail 3.11.1 - KDE 4.14.30 - Dolphin 4.14.3 - LINUX Mageia 5 _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
