Users / Re: Using as Fileserver on External Network

« on: October 15, 2007, 09:58:28 pm »

I am trying to use my Hybrid as as fileserver on the external network because it wont link to a windows server. I managed to get a test install on an old machine to work, and i could login but now i have installed it on my new media centre it wont allow any user even the re-enabled root to login over the network.

Users / Using as Fileserver on External Network

« on: October 12, 2007, 07:30:16 pm »

I already have a windows network on the external card, this windows network has a few machines, all of which have thier own music and movies etc.. on. Im trying to setup the Core as a file server, so each machine can put its music etc.. onto it.

I managed to get my test machine built out of spare parts to do it. But now ive built a proper media centre with proper parts, it doesnt work.

Ive disabled the firewall completely, and ive enabled all network sharing just like i did on the other one, but still it doesnt work.

I can get into web admin, and using PUTTY i can get remote terminal, so im pretty sure the problem lise in no users (including root) having permission to login over the network.

Users / AV Setup stuck in loop

Ive managed to get my main box setup and working but my first client is stuck in a loop. it network boots fine. and it shows up properly but when i run the av setup wizard (which i cant skip) it does the screen setup then  when i say i have an analogue stereo (Step 5) it just goes back to terminal and then it reopens the setup wizard at step 1 and i try again and it goes to setp 5 and then back to 1.

Users / Setup Issues

« on: September 29, 2007, 11:49:54 am »

I allready have a windows network setup and running, with a file server etc... already setup. I have the windows network on the external network, but im having real trouble getting LinuxMCE to connect to my fileserver.

ive tried setting up the file server through the web admin but it wont pick it up and let me browse it.

ive also tried synbolic linking but i cant create the link

is there anyway of doing it?

also is it possible for me to just turn off DHCP and hook the internal network upto the same switch as the external?
