Mounting Remote Folder on a Linux ?

Hi,
Is it possible to remotely mount a Linux volume on a mac?
(reverse of what was asked on Mounting Remote Folder on a iMac ? )
Thanks

You can download the installers (GPL) for Fuse and SSHFS for Mac OS X 10.5 or later from:
http://osxfuse.github.com/
Then open the Terminal.app and type sshsf... same as under Linux. Check the Finder Preferences to enable connected servers to see mounted volumes on the desktop.
Please note this is not a Mac OS X forum.

Mounting Remote Folder on a iMac ?

Hi,
I am very new to Oracle Linux
I Just installed OL 6.3 on a HP machine

thanks in advance
I tried to install fuse-sshfs, but it failed
#yum install fuse-sshfs

The following works in Oracle Linux 6.3, x86_64:
<pre>
yum install http://pkgs.repoforge.org/fuse-sshfs/fuse-sshfs-2.2-1.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm
</pre>
Yum will automatically install fuse and fuse-libs from the Oracle public yum repository.
Then on your Linux system, type: sshfs username@servername:directory mountpoint
where username is the username of your Mac account and servername the IP address or FQDN of your Mac.
For instance, to mount the Desktop folder from your IMac:
On your Mac system, open "*System Preferences*, *Sharing* and enable *Remote Login*
(Firewall will be configured automatically if enabled)
Then, at the command prompt on your Linux system type:
<pre>
mkdir /mnt/mymac
sshfs [email protected]:Desktop /mnt/mymac
</pre>
You can find the files from you Mac Desktop in /mnt/mymac.

How to mount a remote folder with VPN

Dear All,
I setted up a mac mini server with VPN. It goes through a rooter and I open some ports to be able to connect with VPN.
From max MacBook pro, I installed the VPN profile and I can connect the VPN to my remote server. The remote server has a public static adresse.
Now I am connected with VPN, but I can not moiunt a remote folder. I press command+K and I entered:
afp://username@ip-adresse/Groups
But it return an error message
"There was a problem connecting to the server "46.xx.xxx.xx".
The server may not exust ot it unavailbale at this time. Check the server name ot IP address, check your network connection, and then try again
But the server is up and reachable!
Thank a lot for your advises.
Cheers

I even tryed with
afp://ip-adress
after being connected with VPN,
Should do something else from my router?
When I go to my Macbook system preference and the to network and look at my location, I can see a green label to the VNC and and a IP adress is provided my the VNS server which belong to the pool I configured and out of the local pool

I keep getting this error in Dreamweaver when I am trying to upload my website? Can you tell me what I am doing wrong? here is the error message: /html - error occurred - Unable to create remote folder /html. Access denied. The file may not exist, or there could be a permission problem. Make sure you have proper authorization on the server and the server is properly configured. File activity incomplete. 1 file(s) or folder(s) were not completed. Files with errors: 1 /html

Nobody can tell you anything without knowing exact site and server specs, but I would suspect that naming the folder "html" wasn't the brightest of ideas, since that's usually a default (invisible) folder name existing somewhere on the server and the user not having privileges to overwrite it.

That's not an error - it's an alert. And it only means that
you have never
defined the home page by right clicking on a file and so
designating it.
But this would be for your LOCAL site, not the remote site,
correct?

FTP Time Out - Cannot Open Remote Folder

I am using Dreamweaver CS3 and windows Vista. I have set-up site definition (with user id and password) and used to be able to connect to the remote server, open remote folders, and upload and download files using Dreamweaver. However, all of sudden I cannot open the host directory remote folder where all of my website information are, It just times out. I can connect to the server, if I don't specify the host directory. I changed FTP time out in dreamwever to increase ftp time, but still it times out. I used to be able to open the host directory without any problem, and I have not changed any information in site definition. I have tried to use fireFTP, and I can connect to the server but cannot open the the host directory, same as in Dreamweaver.
Other pople working on the same website, with same site definition with the same user name and password can connect and open the same host directory remote folder using Dreamweaver on their pcs without any problem. So it seems like the problem is with my pc or Dreamweaver setting, even though I have not changed any settings.
Does anyone know what would be causing this problem and how I can resolve this issue? Thanks.

I found out that the remote folder which I can't open (host directory) contains many wmv video files, which might be causing the problem of timing out using Dreamweaver on my PC. Other people can open the same folder using their Dreamweaver on their PCs.
I can connect to another remote server and open all the folders in Dreamweaver without any problems.
Is there any settings I can change in Dreamweaver or on PCs to resolve this issue, or any other suggestions? Thanks.

Mount webdav folder on OS Lion

Hi I have iomega ix2-200 cloud edition nas drive and use it on regular basis thru wireless connection on afp command. The drive can easily be mounted on finder.
The issue arises when I am outside (home network) and want to access nas drive. Currently, I am using filezilla to download/upload information however it is getting messier every time due to amount of files being edited.
I was reading thru article and came across WebDAV secure link which is available on this device. I have enabled and successfully connected my win7 machine ( as mapped WebDAV folder). Mac however does not want to know, even though I am sure connect tab does offer WebDAV connectivity.
I have already spoken to iomega support and according to them it is mac issue and not fault with nas drive. Can you please guide me on how should I mount WebDAV folder ( ie http/https) on finder.
Kind regards,
Jay

Anyone...been facing similiar problems on OS lion?

Create folders and navigate through server folder structure in Linux

Hello,
I want to know if there are any examples on how to reate folders and navigate through server folder structure in Linux OS. I currently can navigate trough Windows, but need to be able to do it in Linux, by using a GUI for it.
Any suggestions? Thanks
LabVIEW Intermediate I level!

Hi Bebeto,
Would you please clarify your question a bit for us? Are you trying to implement something like Windows Explorer in your application? Also, are you looking for a tree-like display structure, or list of folders that you can drill down into (i.e. double click to enter into that that folder). My understanding from your comments is that you have implemented something like this in Windows, but not Linux. It this correct? Also, are you looking for advice on the GUI creation side of things, or the programmatic access/creation of files and folders? The more you can clarify your question for us, the more the community will be able to provide feedback and suggestions to help you get on track qiuckly.
Have a great afternoon!

Mounting nas folder takes ages (only on mac)

Hi
I have a synology DS212J. I mount my folder on my nas using finder which worked fine. but for the last few month it dosen't work properly anymore. I connect to my nas (no problem) then choose a folder (no problem) but then when I open it for example picture it takes ages to show the contends and even after a long time being open it never shows all the contends. it's not possible to work like that. I have an early 2011 macbook running m.l. i have more and more probem with m.l
I have to old laptop 5 and 7 years running win7 on them and no problem to mount the nas in seconds. I also installed win7 on my mac, and from there no problem to mount withhin seconds.
starting to think using win 7 again as my mac (moutain lion) starting to cause more and more problem.hope the next os is better...
hope anyone can help me with this issue....
K S

QNAP firmware 3.6.0 works under Lion, but for AFP to work, you may need to delete some of the old hidden files nested within top level folders on the NAS.

Unable to create remote folder

When I attempt to go to the data bindings on an ASP form I
have, I get the following error:
Unable to create remote folder 550 _mmdbscripts: Access

The form works fine, but I can add any new fields to the form
because I get this error when I attempt to update the field list
under server behaviors.
Any suggestions?

Does your FTP hang on all sites? Or this this the only one?
How many sites
do you have? Does it hang with all folders or only these
specific ones?
What happens if you create a new folder in the site and try
to upload that?
Such curious FTP problems in DW are almost ALWAYS the result
of an
interference from your local firewall - are you running one?

Second disk and mount library folder

Hello,
I want to buy a new ssd as 120 GB.
However, I have a lot of music or file data. So, I want to replace super drive with ssd.
I have 500gb 5400 rpm and 120 GB ssd disk. I think install mac to ssd disk.
After than, I want to move user home folder to HDD.
However, I want storage /users/username/Library on SSD disk.
Can I Library folder storage on SSD disk and other home folder on the HDD ?
so, can I mount library folder to ssd disk after, move to home folder ?
Thanks

First a suggestion - put the SSD into your current hard drive bay. That's where you'll want to keep your system files, using it as a boot drive, as well as your applications, etc,
You can then install your 500GB hard drive into the optical bay with a 'data doubler' such as those available from OWC. On it you can keep all of your users files. Pretty simple thing to do.
But I do have to stress that the SSD should be placed in the current hard drive bay.
Good luck,
Clinton

SGP311 KitKat - mounting remote shares

Hi, Prior to the KK update, I used ES as my file manager. This allowed me to manipulate/copy files on my NAS. Now that File Commander is the only FM that can manipulate files on the SD card, I have to copy onto internal storage using ES, then move to SD using Commander. When I quizzed Mobisystems on this, they pointed to the Z1 forum and told me to use Settings > Storage > Remote Shares to mount the shares, then Commander would be able to do the necessary. The problem is that there is no 'Remote Shares' option under Settings > Storage.... Does anyone with the KK update on SGP311 have this option (in which case a repair might fix it), or have Sony utterly cocked this update up? PS I use s/w that will only run on non-root devices.....

I've just spoken to Sony about this, with laughably abject results.
First, a clearer exposition of my problem:
- Under 4.3, I used ES File Explorer, since that has all the functionality I require, crucially including access to NFS/SMB shares
- Google removed the ability of 3rd-party apps to write to SD for the KitKat release
- Sony chose File Commander to be the bundled file manager for their 4.4.2 stock ROMs
- File Commander cannot independently access remote shares (some cloud services, yes, but not J Random NAS)
- I didn't update to KK until a new File Commander update came out claiming to give access to remote shares for Xperia KitKat devices
- On update to KK, I found that I was still only given the option of cloud services under the remote share tab
- Mobisystems support pointed me at this link on the Z2 forum, describing how to mount remote shares via 'Settings' > 'Storage' > 'Remote Shares'
- I pointed out to Mobisystems' support that there was no 'Remote Shares' under 'Settings' > 'Storage', which left them puzzled and unable to offer any further advice.
So, on to the call today. After explaining the situation:
- Well it's Google's fault you can't write to SD (yes, but it's your fault I can't see my NAS in the provided file manager)
- We don't write the app to do this (no, but you made a deliberate decision to include software that could, should and erroneously claims to support this)
- It's not our responsibility to provide such functionality (and yet, through storage settings, you provide this for other devices in the range.... And your technology partner certainly thought it was - and that you did)
- We're sorry you're sad (I'm not sad, I'm fuming)
It was obvious we were getting nowhere, so I asked how I could escalate the issue.
"You can't", I was flatly informed.
After to-ing and fro-ing, they said they would pass it on to the developers.
<sarcasm> Which I fully believe </sarcasm>
Shoddy work from Sony.

Disable 'retrieving remote folder information'?

Is there any way to disable the 'retrieving remote folder
information' query? It causes a delay of about 10 seconds every
time I switch into the expanded local and remote sites view. It is
incredibly annoying.
I work in the full-screen file and folder view quite often. I
find it easier to browse the local view in full-screen mode. I
rarely browse the remote folders and files so I could care less if
the view is up to date. I would refresh it manually, if possible.
Does Dreamweaver CS3 behave the same way? I would gladly
upgrade to get rid of this annoying behavior (along with the
'background file activity' dialog).
Thanks.

It is normal, Dreamweaver is a snail-slow FTP program.
But after a while, the message should change and you should
see your remote files appear in the
remote files side. No?
