You can try browsing the archive, download the debfiles and install via sudo dpkg -i (or sudo gdebi-gtk?)

What version of each package is suitable for a wheezy-based install?
Idunno, so would download + inspect the Packages.gz file from here:
http://archive.debian.org/debian/dists/wheezy/main/binary-i386/

OK, thanks. If push comes to shove I’ll look into that. Could I set up my own local antiX 13.2 repository server?

I couldn’t recall, had to go lookitup –} antiX 13.2 was based on debian 7(aka “Wheezy”)

a websearch “debian wheezy install samba” led me to the following

To install samba:
apt-get install samba samba-common libcups2

Thanks. I’ve already tried installing the samba and samba-common packages and I think libcups2 will handle printing 8-(

Surely there must be some way to actually install the SAMBA/smbd service???

Several of these video tutorials show samba-related stuffs for 13.2

Thanks, but the tutorial for running a SAMBA server (“AntiX 13 – connectshares and LinuxLite Samba Server – Part I – LinuxLite Samba Server”) does so using Linux Lite (rather than antiX), which comes with a server restart script (which appears to restart the smbd service) but it doesn’t explain how to get the SAMBA server/smbd software installed.

Similarly, the other tutorial (“MX-14 – Create Samba Shares via Manual Method”) does so using MX-14 where the command “service samba restart” is used, but again it doesn’t explain how to install the SAMBA service.

Surely there must be some way to actually install the SAMBA/smbd service???

I hadn’t tried that, so I gave it a go:

root@aquamarine:# apt-get install samba

Package samba is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
  samba-common-bin smbclient samba-common

E: Package 'samba' has no installation candidate
root@aquamarine:# apt-get install samba-common

samba-common is already the newest version.
The following package was automatically installed and is no longer required:
  libqt4-gui
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove it.

So, nothing was installed and unsurprisingly samba was still not listed as a service. Any other ideas?

Hi,

I’m wanting to use antiX 13.2 on a very old PC to act as a simple fileserver for Windows clients on my home network. I’ve been able to get this working on another PC running antix 19, but I don’t think the SAMBA server software gets installed as part of the 13.2 ISO install (service –status-all doesn’t list “samba” or “smbd” or anything similar). How do I get the SAMBA server package installed (and running) on antiX 13.2?

Thanks very much

In general I think the tutorial still holds as well as videos are helpful as usual. The only pieces from tutorial that I was referring to as possibly in need of updating or clarification were reference to making changes in configs of WMs.
Such as (quote):
”
From the antiX menu select
Control Center→System→Edit Fluxbox, IceWM or JWM Settings (choose the one you are using)

In the startup tab, edit the following section to read

Note
startup

# mount Samba and/or NFS shares
sleep 2 && connectshares &
”
The other suggestion was that the Control Center has the configuration of Connect to shares but missing actual connect function, for which you need to leave the Control Center and execute connecting to shares running Connectshares from general menu. Perhaps there was a reason for this that Connectshares configuration was separated from execution but it seems add Connectshares functionality is not together in one place but split in two different places.
Other than these details Connectshares appears to still work as expected.

It does not appear to me those old instructions relate any more to current composition in antiX. Please correct me if I am wrong…
E.g. in order to connect it tells to:
”
From the antiX menu select
Control Center→System→Edit Fluxbox, IceWM or JWM Settings (choose the one you are using)

In the startup tab, edit the following section to read

Note
startup

# mount Samba and/or NFS shares
sleep 2 && connectshares &
sleep 2 && connectshares connectshares-2.conf &
”
So from the start I do not seem to follow this sequence from the Control Center, not speaking of it was strange to edit WM config in order to accomplish connection to shares.
My point also would be that there should be a simple and easy way in the first place. We do use shares in Linux too after all, don’t we?

When you placed copies of “the antiX17 files” onto a FAT32-formatted pendrive for transfer, all their “permissions settings” were lost because FAT32 has no means to store the permission details.

lookit (quick background reading, toward understanding a couple concepts):
https://askubuntu.com/questions/555790/where-does-ubuntu-save-user-permission-of-a-file
and
https://linoxide.com/linux-command/linux-inode/#What_is_an_inode_in_Linux

When the antiX 19 system reads that FAT32 pendrive, regardless which file manager you use, valid permissions aren’t found. For any files you copy onto the antiX19 filesystem from the FAT32-foratted pendrive, the file manager (or the underlying filesystem) falls back to applying a default permissions mask ~~ and you wind up with all the copied files now “owned by root, and marked as accessible to all”.

If you must copy from PC to pendrive to OtherPC (meaning: for some reason you cannot use sftp or samba or whatever to transfer directly PC-to-PC), you can avoid the permissions mangling by using a pendrive which has been formatted as ext4 (not fat32, not exfat, not ntfs). Back in the day, if the file copy was successful… you were apparently using a suitably-formatted pendrive during the transfer.
