Re: [PLUG] Username for network device

2018-02-23 Thread Tomas Kuchta
If you are ok with this, trust hosts on your network, you could enable NFS
mount for all IPs on your private network this way: 192.168.1.1/24 instead
of listing individual hosts. That would save you from configuring it the
next time you add a host or change host's IP.

I'd keep the root host to single host though.

Everything on my network is 192.168.1.x. 

The router is:
D-Link DIR-860L B1
Firmware VersionLEDE Reboot SNAPSHOT r3761-6bada71e51 /
LuCI Master (git-17.074.58473-ea801ada7) 
Kernel Version  4.4.53

My laptop is named Devil-Bonobo and has two IP addresses: 192.168.1.126
(for ethernet) and 192.168.136 (for wifi). My old desktop was Devil-10
and was 192.168.1.146. I chose those numbers because if I could
remember any of them I could remember all of them. I set these numbers
in the router based on the MAC addresses of the computers. And the
Synology is 192.168.1.115. 

When I first booted the new desktop there was no setting for it in the
router, so it assigned it 192.168.1.107. At the time I had not yet
realized the problem I would have with the Synology, so I went into the
router and set it to 192.168.1.156. Now I realize that it needs to be
-146, but there is another problem: In spite of being set to -156 in
the router, every time I reboot the new desktop the router assigns it
-107. I need someone with router exorcism powers to get rid of -107.
And then I need to figure out how to set it to -146, because there are
a bewildering and confusing number of displays in the router
administration that apparently I am not setting up correctly. 

It might be easier to do this from the command line if I had a clue
what commands to use. At least I need to figure out how to force the
router to reboot and reassign numbers to connected devices.

One more thing comes to my mind, if you run out of ideas. Try to keep
domain names same between the NAS and hosts, if you set them up. If you
didn't, check them, new distros can have different defaults.

It seems that you have listed IP's allowed to mount the NFS export(s). If
the password reset doesn't work, you could also try to give your new
machine the same IP as the old one had.

NFS maps usernames to internal uuids on the NAS. So, you should also keep
the usernames identical on old/new hosts.

I do not think that you will be able to break into the NAS without

loss.

How did you access your data before without the password? NFS,
CIFS,...? I bet that both NFS and CIFS mounts are functional even on
Ubuntu.

My laptop accesses the Synology without a problem. There is this line
in fstab that mounts it every time I boot the laptop:

192.168.1.115:/volume1/Synology /media/jjj/Synology nfs
auto,user 0 0

So I added the line to fstab on the new desktop and rebooted. When it
came up I saw Synology in the Thunar file manager, so I clicked on it
hoping to see the list of files as I do on the laptop. Instead I get a
popup:

'mount.nfs access denied by server while mounting
192.168.1.115/volume1/Synology.'

The line in fstab is identical on both machines. I think the problem is
that (apparently) when I set up the Synology I added something telling
it to accept requests from the laptop and the old desktop. Now I need
to add a permission for the new desktop. Unfortunately, I can't get in
to the Synology administration because I have forgotten the username or
password.
