Hi,
I've just done a fresh install of OI build 148 Server and I'm having a
slight problem with SMB shares on my WDTV Live.
I have imported my zpool from an OSol install, which was all fine, and
the shares are showing up correctly with sharemgr():
sneddo at StorageBox:~# sharemgr show -v
default
smb
* /var/smb/cvol
c$=/var/smb/cvol smb=(abe="false"
guestok="false") "Default Share"
zfs
zfs/storage/Audio
/storage/Audio
Audio=/storage/Audio smb=(guestok="true")
zfs/storage/Images
/storage/Images
Images=/storage/Images smb=(guestok="true")
I believe the smb service is running correctly:
sneddo at StorageBox:~# pfexec svcs -a | grep smb
disabled 13:35:12 svc:/network/smb/client:default
online 13:35:32 svc:/network/shares/group:smb
online 13:35:35 svc:/network/smb/server:default
I can also connect to the shares just fine from my Mac, but with my
WDTV Live I have two problems:
1. The NETBIOS name is showing up as WORKGROUP - not really an issue,
but would like to change it for WAF (Wife Acceptance Factor :P ).
2. I cannot see any shares on the OI machine from the WDTV Live, even
when connecting with root password (or my user account).
Essentially I would like guest access to these shares, with the ability
to login as a privileged account to make changes if required.
Secondly, I'm just wondering how I edit the Grub menu to cut the
timeout down a bit? I tried looking in /boot/grub, but nothing seemed to
match up with what I was seeing.
I'm sure these are pretty easy solutions, being new to OI I just
haven't been able to work it out and it is starting to frustrate me!
Time to consult the experts...
Cheers,
John
