Perhaps Mountain Lion doesn't like Samba2 and needs Samba3? Dunno, I don't
have a working mac anymore. Try fiddling with the password settings (keep a
backup of your samba.conf!!!) I've heard about issues with passwords...

In past surfing, I saw an article about SAMBA & the new MAC OS. Google for
it. There was a config / port change for Lion.

If using ZeroConf (Avahi)...

Check /etc/avahi/services/samba.service to make sure port is set to 445 (old
port was 139).

I have optware with samba2 installed on pogoplug and the shares are accessible
from every where on the network, except mac (mountain lion). When I try to
connect, I get a message back that the version of the server is not supported.
Any clues/workarounds?

I'm not using avahi, just vanilla smb. Is it possible to create NFS mounts on
pogoplug? There is an app called mucommamder which I can use to browse the samba
share, but it's not the same thing as a mounted volume.

Hello,

Am wondering if anyone has managed or looked at getting AirPrint to work on a
pogoplug via optware?

I searched and found tht it sort of works under a full fledged Arch install into
pogoplug, but I'm running via optware and most of the packages like Avahi and
such is not available.

Anyone can offer any insight?

With the requisite software you could certainly use NFS shares but I can't
imagine that it would be too difficult to get Samba working. How exactly were
you mounting the SMB shares in the past? Can you post your smb.conf?

I'm pretty sure avahi is in optware since that is part of my timemachine setup

Thanks, oddballhero. After looking around a bit... Looks like MacOS X 10.8 has
little if any support for earlier versions of Samba. Apparently I upgraded both
my servers and my Macs right past a whole load of trouble in this area so the
only advice I can give is to upgrade Samba or use NFS as an alternative.

Actually Samba2 has some volume space reporting errors so I usually suggest
installing Samba3.X now.  Seems to be working well with my plugs and slugs.  See
bottom of http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Optware/Plugadditions to upgrade
Samba2 to Samba3.

I will try it tonight, but do you think Samba3 'will' work.. or is it still in
trial and error stage.

I see the pogoplug is mount NTFS drive as UFSD and is R/W accessible thru samba.
Would NFS also be able share it?

thanks!

NFS is completely different to Samba, but anything that can be accessed as
a directory can be exported in NFS.

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

I'm pretty sure Samba3 has been around for a while...  You mean like certain
computer companies are perpetually in trial and error stage...  There are only
two sure things... (fill this in with your preference, see Benjamin Franklin or
Elvis).

I've been running 3.6 for some time.

See http://openpogo.tumblr.com/ "Running an NFS Server".  Instead of
downloading, you can just ipkg install the not recommended files.

Samba3 is from 2003.  Samba4 just went stable a few weeks ago.

FYI: https://www.samba.org/samba/security/CVE-2012-1182

The version I see in Optware, is 3.2.15-5, which would also be
vulnerable to the above exploit.

I bought an ASUS RT-N16 last year.  The discovery of Optware has led to
a device I continue to find new uses for.

I don't follow these either.  I went to look up the year Samba3 was
released and found the security warning on the Wikipedia page.  The
entire description is summary length, so I'll post it here.

===========
Description
===========

Samba versions 3.6.3 and all versions previous to this are affected by
a vulnerability that allows remote code execution as the "root" user
from an anonymous connection.

The code generator for Samba's remote procedure call (RPC) code
contained an error which caused it to generate code containing a
security flaw. This generated code is used in the parts of Samba that
control marshalling and unmarshalling of RPC calls over the network.

The flaw caused checks on the variable containing the length of an
allocated array to be done independently from the checks on the
variable used to allocate the memory for that array.  As both these
variables are controlled by the connecting client it makes it possible
for a specially crafted RPC call to cause the server to execute
arbitrary code.

As this does not require an authenticated connection it is the most
serious vulnerability possible in a program, and users and vendors are
encouraged to patch their Samba installations immediately.

It's good for things like "What year did XYZ come out?", especially for
something as old as Samba3.  I actually thought it was a little older,
but I'm probably thinking of the pre-stable releases (I've been using
Samba for a long time).  For anyone curious about Samba4, there's an
Active Directory service in there now.  I'm guessing that running all
that might be asking a bit much for an Optware device.

Actually that wasn't my mistake.  I didn't look down the list for
"samba36" as opposed to "samba".

Actually, I just meant that as a public service since you did bring up how
important it is to keep up with security updates.  I get security bulletins and
have to make sure everything is secure.

I was finally able to mount it via unfs3 + portmap! Though the shares are all
readonly in Mac. The same volumes are editable on Pogoplug though...

pogoplug#mount
/tmp/.cemnt/sda1 on /tmp/.cemnt/mnt_sda1 type ufsd
(rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime,nls=utf8,uid=0,gid=0,fmask=22,dmask=22,nocase,sp\
arse,force)
/tmp/.cemnt/sdb1 on /tmp/.cemnt/mnt_sdb1 type ext3
(rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime,data=ordered)

mac#showmount -e 192.168.1.5
Export list for 192.168.1.5:
/tmp/.cemnt/mnt_sda1        192.168.1.0/24
/tmp/.cemnt/mnt_sdb1        192.168.1.0/24

mac#mount
192.168.1.5:/mnt on /Volumes/mnt (nfs, nodev, nosuid, mounted by as)

Make sure user "ns" has write perms then and the mac mounts it rw.

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

I have a pogoplug series 4 that I was trying to install optware on and I think I
may have messed up my boot process. I added the line calling for
/etc/init.d/mount _optext higher than was specified thinking that the line in
the rcS mounting the USB was interfering with the optext mount.
I don't have ssh access anymore but the device is on the network and pingable. I
can't do anything from the mypogoplug.com setup page as it does not see any hard
drive attached. I would think that I have the device in a loop, looking for a
device with an opt directory every 60 seconds.

Any help?

Thanks,

Shannon

There is nothing in the mount_optext script that should be interfering with db
dropbear loading or the pogoplug service.  Actually if you do not have your
optware drive plugged in, it doesn't do anything.  There is no loop in the
script unless you modified it, it just goes through the sda/sdb/sdc/sdd one time
and ends.

   What do you mean, the line in rcS mounting the USB?

   Where did you get the idea to put the call for mount_optext ahead of anything?

   You might have accidentally deleted some lines (the ones calling db or
hbmgr.sh).  If the device is showing up in mypogoplug.com, then hbmgr.sh is
loaded and you can hotplug a regular usb drive after booting and it should show
up.  You can also retry turning on SSH access since that sometimes turns off,
happened to me a while back and caused some mild panic.

Also if your optware drive was loaded while you were installing and you shut off
the the pogoplug with out issuing an "sync" and a "halt" command, basically just
pulling the plug, the optware drive is then corrupted and can't be seen by the
pogoplug after bootup.  It needs to fixed with e2fsck.  On pogoplugs, it does
not matter what type of drive you plug in (ntfs, fat32, ext2 or 3), if you shut
it down without ejecting it from mypogogplug.com or not issuing "sync"/"halt",
then you can corrupt your drives easily, optware or not, and they won't show up.
You need to mount them on your desktop and check and fix the drives with
whatever utility you need to use.

   If none of this works, then you have to make and install a serial cable.  See
http://archlinuxarm.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2284 .

Please read through everything above before responding.

I just saw that some user named m1complex placed a new mount_optext file which
can take up to an hour to run.  Since it can take up to an hour to run so if you
placed it before the db or hbmgr.sh scripts are run and it can't find the drive,
then you have to wait over an hour before your mypogoplug.com service is loaded.
That call to the script has to be placed after everything else or it bogs down
loading the rest of the rcS if it cannot find the opt drive.  Check to make sure
your opt drive is not corrupted.  If you have any issues with that script,
please contact m1complex.

Thanks for the prompt reply.
I don't have the lines of code in front of me, but I was having trouble getting
the mount_optext to load and mount my USB flash.
I made a decision based on the fact that my drives were showing up in the
mypogoplug.com that something was interfering with the script.
I know I was supposed to put it at the end, but I made a quick decision without
considering the results.

As it turns out, prior to checking back here, I went back to mypogoplug.com and
did what you had suggested (toggle ssh) and it seem to have worked. My drives
show up again, and everything appears to have righted itself.
When I get home I will go back to stock and try again after some more reading.
My DNS forwarder wasn't on due to a beta alt-f install and my wan ip jumped this
afternoon shortly after my error.
Thanks again.
I may try your script this next go around. I went with the other, as it seemed
tailored to the series 4 pp.

I have been very pleased with my slug, and I hope that I fond this iteration of
software to be as useful as that (almost)outdated workhorse.

Thanks,

Shannon
