pnethood can't access shared folders

#1 Post by martigej »

Hi.
I'd like some help on accessing shared folders using pnethood.

When I try "rescan network", the PC server (named x-pc) is found, but with "no shares".

I can access the shared folders from another windows pc.

The environment is:
Puppy 5.3.3
pnethood 0.6.9

Server:
windows 7

See attached the log error.

I appreciate any help.

@martigej:

Have you been doing some upgrading? I checked in Slacko 533 and it has Pnethood 0.6.8.

Also, your error message shows that smbclient is missing libldap. But in my Slacko, no such dependency is required.

@frorgaba

Instead of Pnethood, try YASSM. It works for me in Puppy 4.3.1 with Win7 shares.

However, there have been no reports on how it works with Win8, so this may take several tries. Please report back.

Thank you for the replies.
I solved the problem simply installing "AGAIN" the packets:
- samba_mount_cifs-3.0.37-s131 and
- samba_client-3.0.37

I can't understand, because pnethood has worked some days ago....

Now I'm fighting to get "RemoteDesktop RDP client" to work...
When I click on it, nothing happens...

Any suggestion?

Thanks.

Run the executable from a console.

I don't know what is the command to run.
I tried
# rdp
return: command not found

So, I have two questions:
- What is the command for this app?
- How can I find the command for the apps installed?

Thanks.

If it's rdesktop you've got there, I'm guessing the exec's tsclient..

Hmm.. that might be something rcrsn51's seen. Can you choose between rdp4, five or six on your Windows end?

Maybe check: http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTutorialMicrosoftWindowsNetworkIntegration.html#RDP

No good Semme, but thanks. I'm still not sure what to try.

@rcrsn51, do you have any further suggestions for me?

I'm using the following line code, but the system returns with ERRORS.
Is the line code correct?

Code: Select all

sh-4.1# rdesktop -u martigej2 -p edson1 -g 1200x950 192.168.1.104
ERROR: modulus len 0x108
ERROR: send: Connection reset by peer
ERROR: Connection closed
Thank you.

Start with small steps, leave off the -p (you will be prompted for password) and -g options. Be sure that the windows user is allowed to accept remote connections. The last part is critical.

I've ran without -p and -g options but got the same errors.

Another info:
If I run from Terminal Server Client I get the same errors too.

Code: Select all

sh-4.1# rdesktop -u martigej2 192.168.1.104
ERROR: modulus len 0x108
ERROR: send: Connection reset by peer

Yes, the user is allowed.
I can access RDP from another Windows machine.

I have not been able to get pnethood to find a share on my Window8 PC from my Precise 5.6.1 laptop. However, using 'YASSM Samba share login' from the network menu works. Like rcrsn51 says, it took a couple of tries to find which of the 3 YASSM menu options does what I wanted.

Edit to comment - since writing the above I followed the link to the YASSM thread and was enlightened.

Thanks for that. There haven't been many reports of Puppy trying to access Win8 shared folders.

Do your Windows shares require authentication? This can be a problem with pnethood.

No - I connect as 'Guest'. I have the share access set to 'everyone'.

I did not use the 'homegroup' nonesense, and instead tried to set up normal sharing (as in the way it was in XP and earlier).

Edit to add: I think pnethood found the shares in Slacko 5.5 - I have not used that for a while so I forget (70 next birthday, so I'm allowed)
