      Hi,

      I’m new on antiX and I discover your connectshares program. But it didn’t work(I think it’s my fault) and I can’t connect on my D-link NAS 🙁
      can you help me ? I join a screenshot of network share discovering, and the connectshares.conf.

      One of the problem, is when I try admin login/password of web dashboard of my D-link, and login/password of an user I had create in the dashboard but both did not work.

      I know there is à very good doc but I do not find the solution … 🙁

        i want to know what is the fastest speed to copy files between computers on home network
        fujitsu desktop/antix15 – core2duo e6850 – Card: Intel 82566DM-2 Gigabit Network Connection driver: e1000e
        dell desktop/antix17 – i5-2400 – Card-1: Intel 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection driver: e1000e
        tested a 576MB tar file both with

        -connected via tplink wr740n(100mbps)
        rsync without z – 88mbps

        -straight through cable(1000mbps)
        rsync with z – 145mbps
        rsync without z – 506mbps
        nc file – 851mbps
        nc (dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=1K) – 936mbps

        i see rsync has some overhead even without z/compression
        looking to try samba and nfs, what do you reccomend
        are samba or nfs installed on antix by default?
        how to check active services, i can only find data on systemd
        remember seing something about nfs when i boot, but i cant find anywhere what is display at boot
        i looked in dmesg and files in /var/log

        will still use the 100mbps, but i want to test stuff on gigabit too, just for learning

            I think that you are referring to setting up a samba share? If you are then I am fairly certain that you will need to install the samba server from the repo and configure it in /etc/samba/smb.conf

              those are part of the mx defaults. The file in question is /home/$USER/.config/Thunar/uca.xml.

              Paste this stuff into /home/$USER/.config/Thunar/uca.xml and you’ll get those options, translations.

                for instance, this is the connectshares.conf file I use to access my media server stuff at //mediapc/media

                    As the error says the /.config/icewm/startup file does not exist.

                    For that matter neither does any of the other files because the “~” is missing from the front of the file path. (should be ~/.icewm/startup not /.icewm/startup)

                    You will probably find better luck opening these files through the control centre.
                    Control centre -> Desktop -> Edit icewm settings
                    And
                    Control centre -> session -> user desktop session.

                    And the files will probably be similar to:

                    ~/.icewm/startup
                    #!/bin/bash

                    ~/.desktop-session/startup

                      Again I am responding to correct inaccurate statements.

                      You seem to be under the impression I am advocating the use of Droopy rather than Connectshares+Samba/NFS. This is incorrect. In my reply #3841 to your opening post #3840, Droopy was mentioned only because it fitted the criteria of your opening question at the head of your post.

                      The information about Droopy occupies a tiny portion of my post #3841, the majority of that post relates to Connectshares, Samba and NFS.

                      Your post #3843 is the reply to my post #3841. It contains a complaint that I did not answer a question you did not ask, a requirement not mentioned in your opening post, a provocatively worded prompt for me to explain the NFS client/server networking system, and 3 factually inaccurate statements.

                      Each was responded to in turn in my post #3874. At the very least, your factually wrong statements needed to be addressed for the benefit of current and future readers of this topic. These corrected the incorrect statements you were making about Droopy and Connectshares and also pointed to where you can find the correct information about them.

                      My post #3874 also included advice about avoiding shouting in posts. This advice was ignored and you continued to shout in you post #3877. You are requested to edit that post to remove the shouting.

                        As for Droopy, … that is OK for quick and dirty serving of a file/ or directory thru the Internet, … I am talking of sharing across a trusted LAB – not internet…

                        Your assertion is entirely incorrect. If you had referred to, and understood, the Droopy FAQ guide and/or the Droopy video you would have known they both make it clear that Droopy works in both LAN and internet scenarios.

                        The FAQ tells you in:
                        • the first point of the features section,
                        • the section headed “Transfer Across Local Network”.

                        The video tells you:
                        • within the first 45 seconds.

                        Droopy was mentioned as it fits the criteria you gave in your opening question.

                        What is the most natural, easily setup, way to share browse and move files between stations running antiX on a LAN ?

                        • It cannot get any easier than not having to do any set up,
                        • It allows you to share files from any system on which you run it,
                        • It allows you to browse the shared files in any system on which you run a web browser,
                        • It allows you to move files (upload and download) between the systems.

                        An answer that fulfills the specific question you ask is not invalid simply because you choose to decline it based on your mistaken view of the app.

                        …if you vooled down and considered the question again you’d realise that I am talking of sharing across a trusted LAB – not internet – ala Windows-file-sharing, …

                        Again you appear to have misunderstood. In my reply, I pointed out that you were introducing criteria that were different to those in you first question at the head of your opening post. That could not have been done without a realization of the changes you were introducing.

                        …in order to browse it [a share] like it were local, in ANY file manager, or command line tool.

                        That is yet a further change in criteria that is not mentioned anywhere in your opening post.

                        …Connectshares is ONLY A CLIENT for Samha, i.e. mostly Windows shares.

                        Once again you are making statements that are wrong.

                        In both the Connecshares FAQ guide and the Connectshares video it is made clear that it handles Samba/CIFS and NFS shares. Also the point is again made in the Tips and Tricks post that provides a comparison summary of accessing remote shares using Connectshares v a file manager.

                        Additionally using capital letters in that way is best avoided. It is generally regarded as shouting and impolite. When it is shouting something that is wrong extra care should be taken to avoid it.

                        You did not give a clue clue as to whether a Samba server exists for Linux…

                        It is odd to expect a reply to your opening post to include an answer to a question that was not asked in that opening post. It is also a perverse expectation when you object to a previously given answer which actually addresses the criteria of that question.

                        The fact that you did not know that Samba is extensively used across Linux is a clear pointer to the paucity of your understanding and knowledge about file sharing. That is further emphasized by asking “What is NFS…” rather than doing some research and testing yourself in order to gain a basic working awareness.

                        …unless you deign explain NFS ; is that built-in our Linux ? Server and client ? – it’s prolly a SAMBA server I need.

                        You will make whatever choice you want to based on whatever level of understanding you deem appropriate. If you think a Samba server on each system is the way to go, by all means go ahead. I am disinclined to provide detailed information to someone that conducts such a limited amount of research, together with negligible levels of self help while expecting others to provide them with assistance that effectively does the work for them.

                          @Rust Collector :

                          nfs is usable to share files on a lan.

                          Interesting ! Now that is answering my question and removing any doubts I had.
                          I am seeing our antiX has the NFS-common package already installed as well as
                          the Samba-common, so it’s a matter of choosing which one to add as server.
                          D-d-g found a simple practical guide for installing the NFS server There :
                          https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-configure-nfs-on-linux
                          with additional pointers to more in depth information.

                          While it wouldn’t surprise me that NFS were in fact a superior protocol – after all,
                          SMB is mostly an IBM/MS creature and has the longstanding, unflattering, reputation
                          of being a “chatty” protocol – and I would hence surely choose it over SMB in a pure
                          Linux network, yet for practical reasons I am not prepared yet to forego MS-systems
                          completely, hence the best choice appears to be to setup SMB-servers on the Linux machines
                          for sharing files and printers in a heteogeneous network configuration.

                          Thanks…

                            Dolphin_Oracle said : there is an area in the Package Installer for bring in the samba server which will get what you need.
                            Setting up a samba share is not complicated but its a little bit of a manual process. My video on the subject may help.

                            Ah, this is exactly what I needed to hear. I’ll follow your write up and (or)video. Very much obliged

                              its an older video so some of the links referred to don’t work anymore, but the information is still valid and there is a working example smb.conf file in the show notes. A common stumbling block is making sure your samba-user has the correct linux permissions to access the shared folder (this may be automatic now, its been a while since I set mine up.

                                Dear SamK you are confirming my suspicion, built upon previous expermintation with Connectshare I must say, that Connectshares is ONLY A CLIENT for Samha, i.e. mostly Windows shares. You did not give a clue clue as to whether a Samba server exists for Linux (I suspect there should be a couple implementations), whether one is provided in antiX, or can be fetched and installed from the repos.

                                As for Droopy, which I have used in the past too, it is just a minimal HTTP server, that is OK for quick and dirty serving of a file/ or directory thru the Internet, but if you vooled down and considered the question again you’d realise that I am talking of sharing across a trusted LAB – not internet – ala Windows-file-sharing, IOW sort of mounting or grafting (all or part of) the distant file system on the local FS, in order to browse it like it were local, in ANY file manager, or command line tool. Which SMB does pretty well in the MS Windows world.

                                So yes – unless you deign explain NFS ; is that built-in our Linux ? Server and client ? – it’s prolly a SAMBA server I need.

                                  What is the most natural, easily setup, way to share browse and move files between stations running antiX on a LAN ?

                                  What you mean ny “natural” is anyone’s guess.
                                  Droopy is shipped in antiX and out-of-the-box allows browse and move without setting anything up.

                                  I am aware of the Connectshares application bundled which our distro, but altho support for NFS is briefly mentionned, the setup – described in the guide – is oriented only towards accessing MS.Windows (aka SMB, Samba) shares from Linux *clients*.

                                  That is not an entirely appropriate summation. The example in the FAQ guide does illustrate how to access Samba shares. If you had inspected the connectshares.conf file it refers to, you will see the section on NFS shares provides commented guidance in precisely the same manner as that for Samba shares.

                                  …given two or more stations each running Linux, on a home network without security obstructions, what is the best option to provide seamless access to one another’s file system,…

                                  That is going to vary from user to user. What one user views as the bast may not be the best in the opinion of a second user. You also appear to be introducing different criteria to that given in the opening question.

                                  …would I be forced to run one or more Samba *servers*…

                                  If you choose to share files with Samba, each system that publishes a share to the LAN will need its own Samba server.

                                  …is the “SMB server” installed as part of Connectshares…

                                  Connectshares is only a client-side share access automation tool, which mounts shares published by another remote system in the LAN. It does not include a Samba server.
