nas not visible in dolphin

[adhemar]

Hello,
I am a beginner with mageia and by the time I want to switch completely to linux.
I managed to configure my wireless connection and like now to have access via Dolphin to my nas.
In the different folders of Network from Dolphin, i see nothing. In windows 7, I have full access to all of it and I can also editting my files.
In the nas (Netgear Readynas rn102) are all folders accessible in read and write mode.
Can someone guide me to access the nas in Dolphin?
thx
Mageia KDE 4.1 64bit

Checked firewall ? (most likely the cause)

Are you seeing a folder called "Samba Shares" under network in dolphin ?

I'm fairly sure samba is in by default but just to check in a console do

Code: Select all

rpm -qa | grep samba

If that returns nothing as root do

Code: Select all

urpmi samba-client

or via the package installer

I'm basing this that the NAS drive has smb/windows shares set btw. Samba is what linux uses to access windows shares.

Its what i have:

Code: Select all

[liwi@localhost ~]$ su
Wachtwoord:
[root@localhost liwi]# rpm -qa | grep samba
samba-common-3.6.25-1.mga4
samba-client-3.6.25-1.mga4
[root@localhost liwi]# urpmi samba-client
Pakket samba-client-3.6.25-1.mga4.x86_64 is reeds geïnstalleerd
Markeren van samba-client als handmatig geïnstalleerd. Het zal niet automatisch wees gemaakt worden.
writing /var/lib/rpm/installed-through-deps.list
[root@localhost liwi]#


I still see nothing in the Network folders.

Just to make sure smb is running please show output of

Code: Select all

systemctl status smb

Can you ping the Nas box from the Mageia system?

Code: Select all

ping X.X.X.X

X denoting the IP address of your NAS box.

Does it work if in dolphin address bar you put

Code: Select all

smb://nas-name/share

[adhemar]

In the nas, SMB and NFS are running.

Code: Select all

[liwi@localhost ~]$ systemctl status smb
smb.service
   Loaded: not-found (Reason: No such file or directory)
   Active: inactive (dead)

In a othter linux version, i could see my nas.
Nevertheless, I want to continue with mageia.

[pete910]

Apologies, SMB service is for the server side not client.

However your NAS should be showing in dolphin.

Please try the other suggestion in my post.

I can ping the nas box:

Code: Select all

[liwi@localhost ~]$ ping 192.168.2.181

I do not know how to make it visible in Dolphin. sorry...

[pete910]

Have you tried smb://nas-name/share in dolphin's address bar?

In your case you would put in

Code: Select all

smb://192.168.2.181

That's in dolphin like shown in the screen shot I posted.

[adhemar]

Yes, i can access now in Dolphin. I make a shortcut to my Home file and open all folder in my nas.
At first i had no address bar, a click in the right place, everything changed.
First, i practice a little en make the right schortcuts for my agenda and household accounts.
Thank you to help me out.
