Samba and default user in tinycore

[dsara35]

MY bootlocal.sh is not working...... i gave code /usr/local/etc/init.d/samba start in bootlocal.sh samba not start while booting.. wat is the problem .....

Any changes to bootlocal are saved in your backup, so I guess if your backup is not working, then your changes to bootlocal will not be active at boot.

If "restore=sdb1" gives you an error "invalid device", maybe you need to set the boot code "waitusb=5" or longer to give the device time to settle and be recognised prior to restoring your backup?

YA thanks now bootlocal.sh is working and restore also working, but i want to backup the dir automatically during shutdown r reboot.. how to do this ..................

[Juanito]

Sorry if I'm misunderstanding something, but if bootlocal is now working, which means backup and restore are working, then back/restore should be automatic from now on...

[dsara35]

My problem is backup is not automatic during shutdown. i want to enter manually in command filetool.sh backup...  after this only the backup is running...

The files required to start an x session (i.e. .xession, etc) are created in /home/tc on boot. If you change user after boot, I would guess that /home/newusername does not contain the relevent files required to start an xsession and thus you get the Xvesa resolution setup.

Maybe you could try the "user=xxx" boot code to boot as a user other than "tc"?

Thanks for ur reply now my backup is working.. In /etc/skel/.profile i set export backup as 0 this the problem..............

[dsara35]

I can able to give boot code as user=xxx but just imagine..
 
 Im using terminal server for boot nearly five to six system now in lan boot, i install samba server in tinycore server, i want to set different mountpoint in server to that five user using mount.cifs.. so if v boot system in tc r root the mount.point ans sharing with samba cannt do so i want the five user want to login by their username and password........ how is this possible...

Just to be clear, do you want to connect 20 thin clients with roaming profiles to a Samba share?

In that case installing pyneighborhood.tcz on the clients would allow them to boot as user tc locally and connect to the server under their assigned names via a GUI.

[dsara35]

I installed pyneighborhood.tcz... But while click the icon in wbar nothing happen... i enter pyNeneighborhood in command it saying not found wat is the problem....

It sounds like either python is not installed or it's looking for python in /usr/bin rather than /usr/local/bin?

[dsara35]

I installed python and pygobject, but after this the error is ..

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/pyNeighborhood", line 19, in <module>
    import gtk

[Juanito]

the recursive deps of pyneighborhood are:

Code: [Select]

pygtk.tcz
shared-mime-info.tcz
libglade.tcz
libiconv.tcz
samba3.tcz
filesystems-2.6.29.1-tinycore.tcz

It might be an idea to load extensions using appbrowser, "tce-load -w extensionname.tcz" or take a look at the dep files in the repo.

[dsara35]

Thanks for ur reply. i solve that problem now.. other anyone installed squid in tinycore.... i want to install squid for my tinycore server... wat r the deps need to install that .... if appbrowser have squid please help me..
