Mageia forum

Hi,

I can see the directories and files of my MacBook Pro running Lion, I can also modify them etc. from Dolphin on my Mageia. What I want to do is to CD into my Mac Documents directory (which I can access read-write delete using Dolphin) and run rsync to copy the files to my Mageia PC. How do I mount the documents directory? Do I have to run something on the Mac like SSH?

Please help Thanks - Dev

Hi,

I tried the following.

Code: Select all

mount -t smbfs //dev:xxxxxxx@arragon/home/dev /Volumes/dev
mount_smbfs: server connection failed: Socket is not connected

And got the above error message. I can use the above to mount my shared folders from Windows 7 to my MacBook Pro running lion. What socket do I need to enable?

Thanks - dev

If you can access them in dolphin they are already mounted.
Open them in dolphin, so you're inside the folder which you want to rsync from, then press F4 to open a terminal, and enter

Code: Select all

mount

, paste the output here please.
