Pi friendly GUI for SAMBA - Raspberry Pi Forums


hi everyone,


of using pi's file servers samba, , more point , click way share folders , adjust share permissions, system-config-samba appears work on raspbian. i've been using few days , far has worked perfectly

found these steps on debian forum, , 2 additional steps under them able working on raspbian on pi 2.

1. wget https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/p ... rig.tar.gz
2. tar xvf system-config-samba_1.2.63.orig.tar.gz
3. wget https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/p ... u5.diff.gz
4. gunzip system-config-samba_1.2.63-0ubuntu5.diff.gz
5. patch -p0 < system-config-samba_1.2.63-0ubuntu5.diff
6. cd system-config-samba-1.2.63/
7. dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us
8. sudo dpkg -i ../system-config-samba_1.2.63-0ubuntu5_all.deb
9. sudo touch /etc/libuser.conf
10. run menu: menue > preferences > samba, or cl: sudo system-config-samba

notes...

may have run if build (step 7) fails due dependency issues...
sudo apt-get install cdbs debhelper quilt intltool python-central python-all-dev rarian-compat gnome-doc-utils

, if installation (step 8) fails due dependency problems...
sudo apt-get -f install

might idea check launchpad.net browser see if there newer version before doing step 1.
build process long 1 on pi 2, imagine might take more hour on pi 1.


love cl things quicker , easier mouse. mouse friendly way of adjusting file or folder permissions, find midnight commander works well. start sudo full control. standard file manager works on folders / files if started cl sudo (sudo pcmanfm).

vnc allow use system-config-samba remotely... http://elinux.org/index.php?title=rpi_v ... did=346520

there swat (samba web admin tool):

code: select all

sudo apt-get install swat 
may need set password root account:

code: select all

sudo passwd
point web browser @ localhost:901 or, computer, <host name or ip address of pi>:901 , login root.
