In the distros you mentioned, they use "FULL - Original" SAMBA. They use that one because of the very large support community that exist thruout the world when users have questions. (We have to pay for this support from Microsoft) In the Puppy community, you have 3 ... NO, 4 ... NO, 5 options for using Puppy (a RAM based distro) to share its files, folders, printers, music, pictures, video with everyone else of your LAN without adding software to any LAN user. The Puppy Options are:
FULL SAMBA, as I use it here means that all of the SAMBA tools are present where you expect them once SAMBA is installed and running. These tools are VERY-VERY (to me) important in use and diagnosis of server's behavior. P.S. Barry K makes a solution available also for Quirky 1.3. See his PPM for it. _________________ Get ACTIVE; Create Circles; Do those good things which benefit the people's needs! We are all related ... Its time to show that we know this!

Hi, Not sure if anyone can help me with this one. I have been using pupserver for a few months now, and its great for other computers in my home lan, but, for some reason, I can't mount any shares using the samba share mounter on my nokia n900. I have been able to do this in the past with file sharing in Ubuntu, but am trying to be puppy only. I think this is the only thing I miss from Ubuntu. What is the difference between the samba in this, and the samba that ubuntu might use? Should I try shinobar's full sfs of samba as mentioned a few posts up? Might try that anyway. Thanks Paul |

This is an older version of samba chosen for its smaller size. The newer version provided by Shinobar might do it. Let us know what you find out. Cheers, J _________________ SFS-TCZ_Linker, http://puppylinuxstuff.meownplanet.net/choicepup/ user=puppy, password=linux |

I have installed pupserver and can access the hard-drive and work on the files. I have installed my printer with cups. However I haven't been able to figure out how to access it from a client. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks-irishrm |

I booted pfix=ram (to make sure I hadn't done anything special to setup). Did all the usual keyboard, country, timezone, video, etc. Didn't do anything after X started (auto hookup of wired lan). Went to another computer running wary511 and used pnethood to access, user=root password=woofwoof, and then the same with lameexplorer. No problems. Are you connected to network? Are you able to see your printer when you access CUPS on a client?

Just reread your post and realized it was your printer you wanted help with. On your client open Setup->CUPS PrinterWizard->No->Printers and you should see the printer you have installed on Pupserver435. Just choose "Set as Default" and its a done deal.

Sorry to derail the thread a little, but I installed shinobar's samba sfs, which is newer than the samba in this pup, and it does work to browse files on my n900. Shame, I like the setup provided here more! |

@irishrm: To access your Puppy shared printer from a client machine, read How to Install Your Printer/Scanner in Lupu/Quirky/Wary . |

I have two clients and all that shows up are the printers that are installed on the clients. ▼ Queue Name ▼ Description Location Make and Model Status CUPS-PDF CUPS-PDF Ghostscript Idle epson660 epson660 Epson Stylus Color 660 - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.2.5 Idle pdf_writer PDF Local Printer Local Raw Printer Idle i,e the above: The printer installed on the server is an epson830u and appears to be working properly. I tried the search for printers option but nothing showed up. Maybe its a problem with the computer I'm using as a server. If I don't find a solution I might try setting the server up on a different computer.(I have three but they are all ancient, 10 yrs approx ) Anyway I must compliment you on the excellent puppy you have produced. Even without the printing option its extremely useful and so easy to setup. Thanks again for your help-irishrm |

When you open CUPS on your clients do they see the printers on the other clients? What version of Puppy are you using on the clients? _________________ SFS-TCZ_Linker, http://puppylinuxstuff.meownplanet.net/choicepup/ user=puppy, password=linux |

I just uploaded http://puppylinuxstuff.meownplanet.net/choicepup/PupServer435/pupserver435tngG.iso. http://puppylinuxstuff.meownplanet.net/choicepup/PupServer435/pupserver435tngG.iso-md5.txt This is the same Pupserver435 but using rcrsn51's tng samba server. Give it a try and see if your n900 will talk to it. Good Luck, J _________________ SFS-TCZ_Linker, http://puppylinuxstuff.meownplanet.net/choicepup/ user=puppy, password=linux |
