Filesystem supported by Mac OS X and Linux

I got Windows, Linux and Mac OS X on my system. I'd like to share files on a partition that Linux and Mac OS X can access, but not Windows. So far I've used FAT32, but obviously Windows can access that, so I'm looking for something else.
Is there any filesystem that fits these requirements?

try to hide the FAT32 partition, windows doesn't mount hidden partitions, linux still can mount them (I don't know if automount stuffs take care about the 'hidden' flag), but I don't know if it will be visible from Max OS X.
To hide a partition:
- reboot
- in the GRUB menu, type 'c' to enter the GRUB's command line
- type "hide (hd0,0)" (replacing the partition with your FAT32 partition)
- 'escape' to return to the menu
The hidden status is a flag in the partition table, so the partition will be hidden until you unhide it (with the "unhide" command from the GRUB's command line).
I'm not sure this will do the job, but it is easy to try.

Mac OS X and Linux Zeroconf LAN irregularities

Mac OS X and Linux Zeroconf LAN irregularities
I would like to at least understand, if not remedy,
an annoyance in establishing the connection between
my Mac and my Linux box. I have yet to find anything
constructive relative to the issue via the google
shuffle or manual pages. Any thoughts, experiences
and/or further troubleshooting steps would be
appreciated. Thank you.
==============================================
Installation:
PMac G5 running OS X Tiger (10.4.4)
Linux printer is shared with Mac via CUPS,
not classic AppleTalk.
P4 with Debian Etch (testing), kernel 2.6.12-1-686,
Gnome desktop and USB attached printer and scanner.
With netatalk 2.0.3-4 and task-howl (0.9.5-2), which
includes the howl mdnsresponder (0.9.5-2), installed.
Only the netatalk afpd and cnid_metad deamons are
being run.
hardwired ethernet with the Mac and Linux box connected
to a Belkin 4 port router
==============================================
Trials:
If I boot up both my Mac and Linux box:
Linux has autoipd, mDNSResponder and nifd daemons running.
Mac has mDNSResponder and netinfod daemons running (don't
know which others are pertinent to note).
If on my Mac in a Finder pane I click Network -> My Network
-> debian1 -> Connect then I get the message:
AFP connection status
Looking up "debian1.local.."
which times out with the message:
Connection failed - server may not exist blah blah
In can however, on my Mac in the Finder menu bar select
Go -> Connect to Server -> enter afp://192.168.2.48/
(my Linux box) -> enter user and password of shared
directory -> select share to mount; and I have my
connection. If I dismount the share though, within a
session, and try to connect again this method works and
the Finder pane method still does not.
Alternatively, on my Linux box I can run the cli
# /etc/init.d/mdnsresponder restart
Then back on my Mac the Finder pane method of establishing
a connection (that failed above) works as it should.
Further, I can dismount the share and reconnect with this
method any number of times in the same session, and even
reconnect with this method after rebooting only my Mac.
However, if I reboot my Linux box I'm back to Finder menu
bar or mdnsresponder restart reconnect choices.
==============================================
What the above trials tell me is that if I restart
mdnsreaponder then everything is "peachy" until my Linux
box is rebooted. What they do not tell me is if there is
something flakey with mdnsresponder, my Linux installation,
an incompatibility with Tiger, or even some other
interference on either box.

I posted the following to the Debian list for obvious reasons, but I'm also posting it here in the hope that someone might shed some light on my suspicions relative to the Mac log.
The howl-tools portion of my zeroconf installation is being phased
out in favor of the newer Avahi as I understand it. However, Avahi
hasn't made its way down to testing yet so for the time being I'm
trying to make do with howl-tools. The point in my mentioning
this here is that much of the information I find is outdated.
That said, the only thing I've found in the Linux bootup logs yet
(using dmesg) that I recognize is the line
autoipd uses obsolete (PFINET,SOCKPACKET)
So, using autoipd as a starting point for further researching
this issue I found the following
(at http://www.porchdogsoft.com/products/howl/InstallUnix.html )
Ideally, autoipd should run only in the event that the interface has not been statically configured and DHCP fails. Running autoipd this way requires modification to the standard distribution boot scripts for your OS. These modifications vary depending on your version of Linux or FreeBSD. On RedHat Linux, for example, the /sbin/ifup script may be modified to launch autoipd in the event that dhclient fails. On our systems, we added the following line to /sbin/ifup right after dhclient is launched so that autoipd runs whenever DHCP fails:
elif [ -z "`pidof -x dhclient`" ] && [ -z "`pidof -x dhcpcd`" ] && [ -z "`pidof -x pump`" ] && [ -x /usr/local/bin/autopid ] && /usr/local/bin/autoipd -i ${DEVICE}; then echo $"started autoip."
Note that since this change causes "$NUMDEFROUTES" to become zero-length, the subsequent code in /sbin/ifup for fixing the duplicate routes generated by DHCP also gets modified in the howl version of ifup.
You may need to modify your boot scripts differently depending on your platform. We have included the original ifup script for RedHat 9 along with our modified version (howl_ifup) as an example so that you may more easily identify how to modify the boot scripts for your platform.
A lot of Greek to me but I did look in /etc/init.d and found
the autoipd script which is the normal boilerplate (same as all
the others with autoipd substituted for the daemon name).
Even if I felt comfortable adding the above in the
/etc/init.d/autoipd script, I have no idea whether it would be
dealt with after dhclient.
I also found in the Mac system log after a reboot:
Jan 26 02:22:48 slpmacg5 mDNSResponder: Adding browse domain local.
Jan 26 02:22:48 slpmacg5 configd[33]: executing /System/Library/SystemConfiguration/Kicker.bundle/Contents/Resources/enable-net work

so I'm thinking (dangerous at my age) that my Mac isn't "discovering"
what it needs until I restart (stop and start) mdnsresponder on my Linux box????
What I'm asking is whether anyone thinks this (autoipd) on Linux is a
likely cause of my described connection annoyance?
If so, is the referenced info applicable to Debian today and how
would one go about applying it?
Or alternately if so, might it make sense to just disable autoipd
startup altogether and how would I best go about that - just something
like update-rc.d autoipd remove????????
Thank you,

Daul boot mac osx10.5 and linux.. how?

hey guys,
i have 24' imac 2.8Ghz not the brand new ones, but the newer ones?
and im wondering how i can put ubuntu on it...
is it the same process using bootcamp and installing windows? (not that i have done that)
or how is it done?
i wonder if i can just pop the live cd in and install seeing as mac and linux are both build on top of unix..
any help would be appreciated
thanks in advance.

I'm running Kubuntu as a virtual machine through Parallels. It's very nice. I have BootCamp set up on my laptop running Windows XP, and that works fine, too. After using each for a while now, I'd have to say I prefer the VM setup, but I'm too lazy to switch the laptop over. I plan to install Windows 7 on my iMac after about Service Pack 2 or so.

Cross developing Mac OS X and Linux

Hi,
i've issue with cross compilation my app. I need developing software on Mac OS X (with Qt framework) and compiling it for Linux system. Is it possible way so developing ?
I've MacBook Pro so is it x86 architecture and Tiger 10.4.6.
What all i need to this my solution ?

I've some links about cross compilation:
http://www.kegel.com/crosstool/

I will try it.

Creative suite and linux

I've had it to the eye teeth with Windows. When are we going
to get a version of creative suite that is compiled for Linux?
Adobe make a range of products already that run on Linux. WHY CAN'T
WE GET THE FLAGSHIP...CS3 COMPILED FOR LINUX?
It strikes me as amazing that Adobe's support for Mac is
legendary and the latest Mac OS is a flavour of Unix. So why-o-why
can they not produce a version of creative suite that'll run
natively on Linux. I'm soo sad.
:-( Peter

I'm familier with Linux since 1995, do I have to shift to Mac or Windows to be able to use adobe creative suite ? I believe that installing CS on WINE is not a practical way. I'm very sad too.

New MacMini and Linux

I'm trying to get Linux to install on my new MacMini but the monitor driver doesn't not appear to be correct. I've tried Edubuntu and Mint so far. Each time the installation will proceed until the monitor stops and goes into sleep mode because the Mini isn't sending a signal. I've tried both the analog and digital (HDMI) monitor outputs.
I know the new Mini is very new and is significantly upgraded. Has Linux not caught up yet?
The graphics card is a NVidia GeForce 320M
Does anyone have this kind of setup working?

Thanks for the suggestion. The issue is that I can't get Ubuntu or Mint installed (the screen goes dark long before the install is completed) so updating the nvidia driver for Linux isn't possible. nVidia doesn't post Mac drivers so that's not an option either.
I'm trying to set this up as a triple-boot (Mac, Windows 7, and Linux). I've done this many times on other Macs but am stuck on this Mac Mini. This is a training lab and I need all of these operating systems in their native environment (not through Parallels or similar).
Thanks for your help!

DAC 10.1.3.4.1 Server on Windows (64 bit) and Linux x86 (64 bit)?

Hi Friends,
Please confirm wheteher Oracle Business Intelligence Data Warehouse Administration Console 10.1.3.4.1 Server is supported on
Windows (64 bit) and Linux x86 (64 bit)
Because from edelivery.oracle.com i could see the downloads only for windows and Linux and not specified as 32/64 - bit
so will it mean that the same dump is used for both 32 and 64 bit
1) Oracle Business Intelligence Data Warehouse Administration Console 10.1.3.4.1 for Microsoft Windows (V16377-01)
can the above dump is used for both 32 and 64 bit windows?
2) Oracle Business Intelligence Data Warehouse Administration Console 10.1.3.4.1 for Linux x86 (V16378-01)
can the above dump is used for both 32 and 64 bit Linux?
The reason is because for OBIA 7.9.6.3 configuration both the Informatica Power Centre and DAC Server should co-exist
and i could see seperate installer for 32 and 64 bit for both Windows and Linux whereas i couldn't see it for DAC Server
Please confirm .
Regards,
DB

It is supported on both platforms. With Linux however, if you have any issues you can to install in a windows environment, then copy over the folder structure. Also, you can possibly run into issues running the setup.exe on 64bit windows. When you open the install directory, go to dac/disk1/install and run the executable for win32. win64bit can return an error where it says it cannot create certain temp directories. It is a known java bug you can find in the support website.

Move encrypted filesystem between OS X and linux?

I would like, if possible, to copy and use an encrypted filesystem between OS X and linux. I haven't found a way to do this, and would appreciate any assistance (that is, I want to create something like an encrypted sparseimage that can also be copied to, and read and mounted on, a linux system). If I build an ext2 filesystem in a sparseimage, is there any way I can get linux to understand and mount it (presumably this requires linux somehow recognising the sparseimage as a partition)? Or alternatively, is there any way to mount an encrypted linux filesystem on OS X? Cross-mounting isn't a solution to my problem; I really need to be able to put a secure filesystem in a file on a USB drive or CD or..., and then read it on a mac or linux system when I plug it in. Even the simple answer "no, it can't be done" would be a great help in saving my time... I'd like to avoid solutions that involve creating a clear copy of the encrypted system in file space (e.g. tar/gzip/encrypt/delete -> copy encrypted decrypt/gunzip/untar) if at all possible. Mechanisms that decrypt on access are much preferable.
Thanks and Best Wishes

I believe TrueCrypt can do what you want.

How do Mac and Linux find the JFX runtime?

I've been searching the documentation without success for the answer to what ought to be a simple question -- how do I point Mac or Linux at the 2.2 runtime? It's no problem if I'm running in an IDE (NetBeans, e(fx)clipse), where I can tell the IDE where I unpacked the SDK. But what if I want to run a jar file, such as produced by the ant tasks?
You'd think this would work (on Linux, where I unpacked the SDK into /opt):
java -cp /opt/javafx-sdk2.2.0-beta/rt/lib/jfxrt.jar:. -jar MyProgram.jar But it doesn't -- I get a popup saying "This application requires a newer version of the Java runtime. Please download and install the latest Java runtime from java.com. Then restart the application" (I'm running with 1.7.0_05-b05 from Oracle).
The only thing at all close I find in the Linux installation instructions is it says to unpack the samples as a subdirectory of the SDK, wherever I happened to put it, and then I should be able to run the examples with a simple "java -jar filename.jar". But even that's not quite true -- it only works if I first cd to the samples directory. But it's a start, so I tried...
cd /opt/javafx-sdk2.2.0-beta/rt
java -jar ~/dist/MyProgram.jarThat succeeds in finding the runtime, but my program doesn't work, because it doesn't find my dependent libraries. So I tweaked the command a little bit:
cd /opt/javafx-sdk2.2.0-beta/rt
java -cp ~/dist/MyProgram.jar -jar ~/dist/MyProgram.jarThat actually works. But it can't possibly be the right answer -- you shouldn't have to run a javafx program with the runtime directory as your working directory.
And even that doesn't work on Mac. There, Java knows how to find the runtime that's installed with JDK 7 update 5 for Mac. But if I want to test a program with the 2.2 runtime, what do I do? Setting -classpath on the command line still uses the 2.1 runtime. And if I try the trick of connecting to javafx-sdk2.2.0-beta/rt first, it doesn't work at all -- it doesn't find my libraries, and it throws up a "java quit unexpectedly" window after getting a segfault.
So what's a developer to do? Am I supposed to use the native packaging procedure instead?

JavaFX 2.2 is first version where Linux/Mac are supported as runtime (and not just SDK).
However, you need to install JavaFX Runtime that is part of JRE 7u6 (you can get beta from jdk7.java.net or wait for FCS version of it).
Installing JRE is the only way to get JavaFX runtime installed on Mac and Linux (and eventually on Windows too).
rt folder in the SDK is "private" copy of the runtime. It is not supposed to be used to run arbitrary JavaFX applications by default.
You can still force to use it as
java -Djavafx.runtime.path=/opt/javafx-sdk2.2.0-beta/rt/lib/jfxrt.jar -jar MyProgram.jar
or
java -cp ~/dist/MyProgram.jar:/opt/javafx-sdk2.2.0-beta/rt/lib/jfxrt.jar com.javafx.main.Main
Note that if you use "-jar" then "-cp" is ignored by java launcher. This is not JavaFX specific behavior.
JavaFX specific part is that properly packaged JavaFX main jar file will include copy of launcher class (com.javafx.main.Main)
and this is what will be run when you double click on jar or use "java -jar". Launcher will try to locate JavaFX runtime to use,
it knows how to find runtime in the SDK if it is sample located in the SDK itself and it also knows how to find installed version of runtime.
If JavaFX is not found then it will show you message you observed.

Mac OS X and Debian Linux LAN research.

Mac OS X and Debian Linux LAN research.
I am currently doing the Google shuffle and am posting this to try to make sure I don't miss something important.
I recently expunged Windoze from the PC on my LAN and installed Debian Etch (testing, kernal 2.6.12-1-686, Gnome desktop) GNU Linux (I feel so much cleaner now My eventual goal is to do ObjC/Cocoa type cross-platform software development using GNUstep.
Preparation though involves getting the now isolated Linux box back on my LAN. Two considerations are file sharing (of course) and capturing system images of the Linux system in my Mac restoration strategy. On the Linux box one of my backup techniques is Mondo for bootable DVD system images, and the other is g4l (ghost for linux) with which I can clone to a local HD and/or image the Linux system to another system via ftp (vsftp suggested by g4l).
There are two internal 80GB HDs on the Linux box, and two internal 250GB HDs plus several external 250GB HDs (used for alternating clones) on my PMac G5.
I'm thinking NFS or ? and strictly avoiding Samba/NetWare/anything windoze related.
Any pointers and opinions would be greatly appreciated
Thank You,
Lee C

Some remarks on NFS
OS X, like other unix operating systems, can function as both an NFS server and NFS client. Canonical unix systems permit the system administrator to configure this by editing two ascii text files. The file /etc/fstab controls what remote disks (i.e., those served by another machine) will be mounted, and the file /etc/exports controls what files will be served via NFS to other computers, and can restrict access according to the system administrators needs. All of this is true of OS X as well, except that the information from these ascii text files must somehow be transfered into the netinfo database, a peculiarly OS X construct. Fortunately, this can be accomplished without too much pain.
Mounting remote filesystems with NFS
To mount a filesystem from a remote NFS server, you need to do the following:
1. Create a mountpoint of your choosing. You can do this anywhere, but I find making a directory a the root level to be the most convenient. For example, lets say we want to mount two filesystems that are being exported from another computer called Simpson with the domain name simpson.springfield.org. Well assume it has the OS X filesystem structure, but any unix filesystem will behave analogously. The first filesystem we will want to mount will be the remote /Users directory, and the second will be /Volumes/Homer, as the computer simpson.springfield.org has a second hard-drive creatively named Homer. Hence we will create two mountpoint directories as follows: sudo mkdir -p /nfs_mountpoint/Simpson /nfs_mountpoint/Homer
2. Next we need to create the file /etc/fstab with the following two lines in it: simpson.springfield.org:/Users /nfs_mountpoint/Simpson nfs -P, -b 0 0 simpson.springfield.org:/Volumes/Homer /nfs_mountpoint/Homer nfs -P, -b 0 0 The first field is the domain name (it is safest to give the whole thing), and the second, separated by a colon, is the filesystem that has been exported. The third field is the corresponding mount point you just made, the fourth tells the system that this is an nfs device that is being mounted, and the remaining arguments control access and mounting protocols. man fstab for details. The disk is read/write accessible by default, but the users numerical uid (eg: 503) must be the same on both the host an client machine. (Be aware that if joe on the server has uid 503 and sarah on the client has uid 503, sarah will have read-write access to joes files!)5
3. Now read the information into the netinfo database. It is a good idea not to screw this up.
sudo niload -m -v fstab . < /etc/fstab
4. You can now mount the remote filesystems with the commands
sudo mount /nfs_mountpoint/Simpson
sudo mount /nfs_mountpoint/Homer
or to mount all at once, issue
sudo mount -a
Next time you reboot, the automounter and the NFS Startup Item will handle the mounting for you. I'll mention a couple of tweaks you might want to make in a moment, but first lets look at how to export a filesystem.
Exporting your filesystems with NFS
The previous section assumed your computer was a client machine. Now let's assume it is a server. Any machine can be both, so well export our filesystem /Users to the machine called Simpson for this example.
To export a filesystem, you need to do the following:
1. Get a static IP address for each of your NFS server machines, and a corresponding qualified domain name such as simpson.springfield.org that won't change.
2. Create a file called /etc/exports and put the following line into it:
/Users -maproot=nobody simpson.springfield.org
3. Reboot, or run the following commands as root or with sudo:
rm -f /var/db/mountdtab
mountd nfsd -t -u -n 6
This is more or less equivalent to issuing exportfs -a on other unix systems.
You've been served, as they say on British TV and in the grand jury subpoena business.
NFS Manager automates NFS exports and mounts
Another way of handling this, as Gary Mentioned, is to get ahold of NFS Manager, donation-ware that provides a convenient interface for setting up both NFS mounts and NFS exports. If you can live with automounter, which is on by default, this will get you going without complications within minutes. The documentation is superbly written.

Simple network: Windows 7 file server & several Macs and Linux machines- SAMBA bombing out?

Hi guys, i know this is really more of a windows support question, but here goes:
Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit acting as a file server, turned off all the usual MS authentication stuff so Macs and Linux systems connect with password without issues..
except when i start copying certain files/file types/names to the system, it will break the network connection, then refuse any more connections, all macs and linux machines on the network are booted, from the PC however i can still access the Macs shares volumes.. (the macs still see the windows machine & pinging is still there, but if i try to connect i get 'check the name/ip address' error
im no expert, but its as if the Samba service on the windows machine gets killed and im not sure what to do to get it to re-connect other then restarting the system, but as the system is also a terminal server users always have apps/documents open and its 'never a good time' to do it..
if there was an alternate Samba to install, or a buffer patch, or even a 'goto this service, stop and restart' etc.
Trying to get help from the 'windows' community comes down to 'well your on a mac what do expect etc etc' *sigh*
any help is appreciated

Hi, just thought id update my finding regarding this, and it maybe directly affected by my only system, but in case anyone else has this issue?
I thought it may be due to the file name thats causing the lockups, but I found while trying to backup my collection of install images and updates that sure enough a simple named file 'osx10.6.3.DMG' going to the server, 850MB in it stalls and fails, now im not able to connect.
but form the PC, without changing the name or location etc, i copied the SAME from the Macs hard drive through to the windows system, all 5.7GB.
so it is something to do with my windows 7 system, but maybe more related to the size of the file then the name or non-standard characters as first thought.
as suggested by Grant above i will check on the server boards as well.
thanks

Serial Ports, is it supported on MAC & Linux ??

Hey all...
After a long process of doing an application that runs a serial port connection to a server and upload a file to it, i could'nt find the comm package that i could download for both MAC and Linux.... There is one for Windows and Solaris though... So i was wondering, is serial ports not supported by MAC and Linux. And if not, what other than the comm package can i use to have serial ports on those 2 platforms .......
Thanks

Yes, there is third party support for linux and MacOS-X. It's released under GPL and can be found here -> http://www.rxtx.org/

LabView and Firewire support under Mac OS X

I've been following the Labview upgrades for Mac OS X and noticed that now there is a move towards supporting at least some USB and PCI devices. We have a DAQPad system in the lab that uses Firewire and I was wondering when NI will be supporting these types of devices under OS X under LabView...
I'd love to move all of our equipment off Windows simply for the ease of administering them and using OS X and Labview seems to be a great option except for the limitations on portable DAQ systems since it would appear that LabView isn't supported multifunction DAQ either USB / FW / PCMCIA very well under OS X.

I ordered NI USB-9161 thermocouple ADC. On the NI website it was claimed that the device can be used under windows, Linux and OS-X. However the cd included in the package only referred to Windows (in the read-me file on the cd however it was confirmed the device could be used under Linux and OS-X.)
I have downloaded the OS-X NI-DAQ MX Base from the NI website and installed the package. This package should have the USB driver. According to the docs with the USB device these devices come with stand alone datalogging software. However I can't locate any USB datalogging software anywhere on the NI website. Also one could test at least if the device is recognnized with the experimentation and automation explorer. Again I can't locate this app for the OS-X.
The OS X system detects a device 28082 (vendor: 14627) on the USB bus.
I would approeciate any help to get the USB-9161 working under OS-X.
Thanks,

Is there any way to create an installer for Mac OS and Linux OS once a stand alone application is created?

Is there any way to create an installer for Mac OS and Linux OS once a stand alone application is created? I have created an executable application that I want to distribute to Mac and Linux users (different applications were created in the respective OS). I was wondering if there is any way to create an installer? I think there probably isn't... If the user were to simply download the Labview Run-time Engine from ni.com would they be able to run the application or is it more complicated than that?
Thanks so much for your time.

I think Shane tried to say, that it is on the Mac OS X installation DVD, NOT the LabVIEW for Mac OS X installation medium. And that could very well have changed in recent Mac OS X versions as well. They used to have Xcode on it too, but that seems gone as well.
