NAS Servers: Partioning Advice

Hi all. I've got two RasPis and two 2TB hard drives that I'm planning to set up as NAS servers. My intention is to have one at my house and one at my parents' house to serve as redundant backup. I intend to configure my laptop to backup to the my home folder (/home/doni49) on the NAS at my house. I ...

Re: mounted USB HDD, can't CD to it?

Is there a way to find out what system it's using? All I can find in frisk is something that seems to indicate that it's one of three: ntfs, ext4 or one that I don't remember.

Re: Pi Web Server

Check your router to see what iP address it is forwarding port 80 traffic to. Ping your pi using the name not the iP address. It will tell you the iP address where the pi is found. Does the iP address match the one from the router? Also check your domain's DNS settings to see what outside iP address...

Re: Pi off network after power outage

I'd suggest either changing it to use static iP address or access using the device name instead of the iP.

mounted USB HDD, can't CD to it?

I just downloaded & installed Raspian Jessie Lite Sunday night. After mounting my USB hard drive and chmod'd the mounted folder to 775, I try to CD to it and depending on whether or not I use sudo, I get either permission denied or path not found. But yet I'm able to do an ls -l and see the contents...

Re: SSH w/Keys: Win10 Client. Key Refused.

The logs from sshd suggest that your /home may be a symlink to /var/home, and that cannot be the only non-standard thing you have done. If you do not remember why you made these changes, or what filesystems and mounts you are using, it may be better to start again. You cannot implement /var using F...

You'll have to use root privileges to change ownership I thought that by running the command as sudo, I WAS doing it with root privileges. If not, what's the purpose of sudo?
