CheeseMan42 Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Where is this directory? I've looked under my Virtual Machines folder and there's no folders. I've looked on the network and there's no folders there either. Am I not looking in the right places, or did I set up Samba wrong? Well it could be a few things. - Is the workgroup the same as that of your Windows network? - Did you restart samba after editing the configuration file? - Did you use the same user name as you login to Ubuntu with? If you answered yes to all of those, post your smb.conf file and I'll take a look at it. To road-runner: I've used that guide before too and there is nothing wrong with it. I just found that for this purpose it could be done in a few less steps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. - Did you use the same user name as you login to Ubuntu with? Yes. I did exactly what you showed in your guide. I changed the name nick to my username, all the rest is the same.

I will see how it goes, may be no more need for windows (sorry bill, NOT!) for me with folding... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you post or PM your smb.conf file? I'll take a look at it and see if I can spot anything that would be causing you problems. EDIT: First try setting the create mask variable in your smb.conf file to 0755 or 0777, I can't remember exactly. I think I took that screenshot before updating that line.

malmsteenisgod Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 Okay, excuse me for being a moron but I can't even figure out where the VMWare Server Console is. I installed it, but I only have icons for the Home Page and Manage Virtual Networks, as well as some Tomcat stuff. I thought I was missing something so I even tried following the instructions here, but I don't have the console. Am I doing something wrong?

Here's a screenshot of my VMWare Server folder as well as the Start Menu Folders that it created. I'm not sure what I need to run to get to the console.

DLS2008 Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 I thought I saw in one of the other threads, maybe my Folding Rig Questions thread, that the new Server 2 uses a web browser based console. I got errors with the certificates since they were self signed and someone said that I needed to make an exception in Firefox. I downgraded to an old Server 1.0.8 that I had from a while back and never installed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
malmsteenisgod Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 Oh wait! That web page icon is the console. I kept getting errors with Chrome, but I got it now. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
malmsteenisgod Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 Ok, problem #2. I'm installing Ubuntu 8.04 x64 on the VM and I get the error in the attachment below. I'm not sure what it means, "i686 CPU". I'm using a Q6600. Could running Vista x86 have anything to do with not being able to install x64 Ubuntu on my VM?

Crazy_Nate Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 Um...AFAIK, whenever I installed linux, I chose the one that went with my architecture. AMD64 => x86-64 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86-64 You're going to want to find one that can do Intel architecture. http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#alternate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
malmsteenisgod Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 Oh ok. Thanks Crazy_Nate. I used an 8.10 disc that my roommate had instead, and then saw your post. But I see what I did wrong now. But I've got it set up now. Now here's a few more questions I have: 1. So, to fold on all 4 cores, you say to run the SMP again. Do I open a second terminal and follow those instructions again to do this? (If it's not already obvious, I've never used Ubuntu before) 2. How do I pause and resume the Folding Client in Ubuntu? 3. Can I close the terminal and VMWare once it is folding? Now just to make sure, is this correct? It is folding, right? Also I can't seem to get it to work in a second Terminal. I tried messing with the Machine ID, but It always says: -configonly flag given, so exiting Terminated Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
