[VicPiMakers SG] Linux networking problem

[Stuart Hertzog]

Hi Craig,

Thanks for responding. I’m even having a problem accessing the laptop via SSH. Tried adding firewall rules… it’s driving me crazy… help! Would you be up to a spot of on-hands assistance?

Hi Stuart,

Wow, haven't run NetAtalk in decades. The Mac will understand NFS, if you want to define "shares" on your Linux Laptop to share via NFS. This is what I do at my house.

The other option is to run sshfs, then you can log into anything that has a ssh server. Works quite well, I even use it to mount my server in France (over IPv6, of course).

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
