<br></div></blockquote></div><br>Hey,<br> Are you able to access the disks as a normal user logged into the system with this setup?<br> How would you like to be able to access the disks over the network? <br> If you have windows machines you'll want to install/configure samba, otherwise NFS.<br>
Depending on what you're using them for though you may only need ftp/sftp/sshfs.<br><br> In short: what can you do now, what are your requirements, and what have you done so far?<br><br>cheers,<br><font color="#888888">Owen.</font></blockquote>
</span></div><div><br>Write now Disk1 and Disk2 only show up as folders in file system. I can open the folders fine, as a user. They are empty right now. They don't appear on the desktop or under Computer in the 'Places' menu.<br>
<br>I'll probably use Samba to make the drives available on the network. The drives will just be data storage that will need to be accessible rw for all users on the network (766?)<br><br>I'm thinking about deleting these two partitions and reconfiguring them to NTFS <br>

<br></blockquote></div><br>Hey,<br> Not showing up in the 'places' menu or on the desktop is normal for disks configured in fstab.<br> Those places are for auto detected, usually temporary, drives like usb sticks. Use `mount` and/or `df -h` to check that the disks are actually connected and mounted correctly.<br>
<br> The only good reason for choosing fat32/ntfs in this project would be if the disks were going to be physically connected to a windows machine[1]. Otherwise, If the disks are going to be staying in this server and shared only over the network you are best formatting them with a linux fs such as ext3.<br>
A sample samba share for your needs could be something like this from my smb.conf which allows all users rw access:<br> <br>[dumping]<br> comment = Kushiels Dumping Ground<br> writable = yes<br> locking = yes<br>
