[VicPiMakers SG] Linux networking problem

Hi folks,

I’m having a problem with my Linux Laptop running Mint 19.0. I used to be able to connect to it via Samba from my iMac, although Samba has always been problematic.

I currently have an iMac, the Linux laptop (LLT), and a PC also running Linux Mint 19.0 (LPC) as my primary computers. I’ve dumped Samba as it’s fake and anyway I don’t have a Windows machine.

I’ve installed Netatalk, which enables AFP communication between Mac and Debian/Ubuntu.

The problem is that no matter how I try, I cannot get into the LLT from the iMac, although I can do the reverse, and the iM-LPC link works both ways. I also couldn’t raise the LLT from the iMac using Samba (before I dumped it). That used to work under earlier Mints.

Any ideas?

Stuart
