Hello everyone, I run Linux Mint 18.3 64bits and have W10 on dual boot. Everything was working well until I installed an automatic update of Windows last month. Since that day, my NTFS partition refused to mount automatically. This happened 1 year ago and was caused by the hibernation settings of wi...

Hi and thank you for your answer. Sorry but can I change the file permission for these random folders? On my NAS, I have set global read-write permission to the parent folder, and allowed the relevant IP addresses in the NFS rights. PS: we have a common "art" collection with my son :mrgreen:

Hi all, I bought a new SSD and tried to transfer my existing Linuxmint installation made of a root and home partitions. I copy/pasted the / partition via Gparted (and assigned a new UUID because it copied the former UUID as well), and I performed a simple copy/paste of the /home/account folder via a...

Hi,

With lsusb the wifi adapter does not appear, which is normal as it did the same under kernel 3.13.0-37 before installing the driver.

However this kernel is highly unstable and I had to ...

It works, awesome !
Thanks a lot

Now I understand this is the quick and dirty way to do, and anyone connecting to my network would access all the shared drives.
What is the clean way to restrict access to some sensitive folders only to authorised devices (Android, Linux and Windows...)?

There may be stupid settings because I have desperately tried so many things: m-okanochiwa@Mint ~ $ testparm -s Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf rlimit_max: increasing rlimit_max (1024) to minimum Windows limit (16384) WARNING: Ignoring invalid value 'share' for parameter 'security' Pr...

Hi all, I have followed many tutorials and configuration of /etc/samba/smb.conf but nothing works, I cannot share any drive that is formatted in NTFS. I don't know why it remains so complicated to do such basic things in Linux in 2015, especially when anyone can do that in a couple of seconds since ...
