How do I transfer files to and from it? What protocol, FTP? AFP? SMB?

Hi Joe,

FTP and SMB out of the box. NFS took me 3 minutes to set up. Never tried AFP, I'm not a Mac user..

Hi Ubi,

gazmercer,

EDIT - How about a powered USB hub, could that be added too ??

Yes, it works fine. I have a printer and an USB 2.5" HDD of the two-plug-variety attached via a powered hub.

A typical example, showing DL/UL speeds, and also top output. Note that ftd is the process that is downloading/uploading the torrent.
The bottleneck is not the CPU or the network connection, but rather the availability of the the torrent.

By the way, what is the maximum DL-speed if I only use it for BT? Have a 24MBit line, and would like to use it to it's capacity! Hi Calder, I also have a 24Mbit line, and I get nearly the same speed on a single BT download as I get on my PC. If you have several busy BT downloads the speed will decr...

Hi kitabu, I was also unsuccessful at getting VLC to work as a upnp client, but I have used djmount http://djmount.sourceforge.net/ and it works fine on Ubuntu. You set up a mount point and then mount it with djmount. It will find upnp stuff on your network and it will be available as a file system ...

Hi Egix, In order to do this you would have to get either a USB fax modem, or a USB/serial converter and a normal serial fax modem. Then you would have to find some Debian fax server software like HylaFAX http://www.aboutdebian.com/fax.htm and install it on Bubba and configure it with your modem. I ...

Edit: I had to correct my language a bit... Thanks helder! Exactly stuff I needed to know. For various reasons my NFS mounts does not happen automagically, so I need to fix that first to have the same $HOME from all computers. Also I have to figure out existing UID/GID numbers from all computers to ...

Hello fellow Bubba users!

I seem to have misplaced my original smb.conf file (ok, I forgot to back it up before I messed it up). I do not want to restore a complete Bubba backup for various reasons. Can someone please send me an unaltered copy?

TIA

Hello all, and specially helder! In this thread I saw that you have a NIS server set up on bubba: http://excito.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=468 Has anyone else done this? Was it straight forward to set up a NIS server on bubba? Will a user added via the bubba web interface authenticate from a remote h...

Hi Golodh,

Samba comes installed and configured out of the box.
You should be able to map the default shared directories on the Bubba from windows without having to do any configuration on Bubba.

I lived in three different flats in the UK for 8 years, All of them had fitted carpets even in the bathrooms. In one place my flatmate used to dye his hair, but was used to Swedish standards, s...

Hi all, As SMB is quite slow and NFS works a treat between my linux boxes I tried to install Microsoft's Services For Unix (SFU) 3.5 on my XP laptop today. It is supposed to have support for NFS, and I thought it might be faster, and possibly a solution for wellanna. It requires some mappings for au...

Hi Albert, It is actually the host name of your POP or IMAP server. Probably something like pop3.yourisp.com. or mail.yourisp.com. It is the email server where fetchmail collects the email you want fetched from the remote email server. You might have to restart fetchmail in order to get the setting ...
