SSH
Generating a key pair
ssh-keygen -t dsa http://support.suso.com/supki/SSH_Tutorial_for_Linux
some ssh commands
ssh -p 443 bob@oem (server listening on port 443)
NFS - Network File Sharing (install server)
install nfs-server
sudo apt-get install nfs-kernel-server
sudo mkdir FolderName (root) umask = 0022 / permissions = 755 sudo chmod 777 file1
Create local settings such as ...
POSIX permissions (owner and group)
The most restrictive combo of Local and NFS permissions is what applies. If a folder has full permissions locally (777) but I export that folder as (ro) instead if (rw), My actual permissions are read-only.
cat /etc/exports sudo nano /etc/exports (add the following lines) /dir/FolderName1 192.168.1.7/255.255.255.0(rw,sync) /dir/FolderName2 x.x.x.x/x.x.x.x(ro,sync)
Export the file system
sudo exportfs -a
Restart the NFS daemon
sudo /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart
NFS - Network File Sharing (install client)
Install client tools for mounting NFS file system
sudo apt-get install nfs-common
sudo mount -t nfs4 -o proto=tcp,port=2049 RemoteHostIP:/dir/ShareName LocalFolder (LocalFolder on client)
SAMBA Part 1 of 4
SAMBA uses (SMB) "Session Message Block" SAMBA uses (CIFS) "Common Internet File System"
Install SAMBA
sudo apt-get install samba
Edit the Configuration File
[ALT + F2] then gksudo gedit/etc/samba/smb.conf search for "workgroup" workgroup = WORKGROUP personalized to something like workgroup = sjnWorkgroup find "security = user" and uncomment
At bottom of Config file create a "share" such as ... [sjnPUBLIC] comment = Public files shared on "name of server"! comment = Public files shared on bob scott (that's server bob and server scott) path = /sjnPUBLIC guest ok = yes (can browse without authentication) browseable = yes read only = yes #create mask = 0000 directory mask = 0000
[sjnREADONLY-EXT4] comment = Read-only share on bob path = /sjnREADONLY-EXT4 guest ok = yes (can browse without authentication) browseable = yes read only = yes create mask = 0000 directory mask = 0000
[sjnWRITEABLE-EXT4] comment = Read-Write share on bob path = /sjnWRITEABLE-EXT4 guest ok = yes (can browse without authentication) browseable = yes read only = no create mask = 7777 directory mask = 7777
sudo mkdir -v /sjnPUBLIC sudo mkdir -v /sjnREADONLY-EXT4 sudo mkdir -v /sjnWRITEABLE-EXT4
Change file permissions to match the config file
sudo chmod 777 /sjnWRITEABLE-EXT4
SAMBA Part 2 of 4
Mount necessary partitions and devices
Mount necessary partitions and devices in /etc/fstab (unless they are already mounted) Not necessary if you are only sharing files on the default ... Ubuntu Linux ext4 root (/) Is necessary if you want to auto-mount NTFS partitions to share on network
SAMBA Part 3 of 4
After modifying files in /etc - restart the daemon Best to create a SAMBA password sudo useradd sambauser sudo passwd sambauser cat /etc/passwd sudo smbpasswd -a sambauser
Anytime you modify /etc/samba/smb.conf sudo restart smbd (unknown?) sudo start smbd sudo restart nmbd

see Mount HDD to mount a hard-drive sudo mount to see what is mounted sudo mount -a to mount all entries in fstab
gksudo gedit /etc/fstab select Edit -> Preferences -> Editor create a backup copy before saving file
