Mastodon Politics, Power, and Science: Connecting from macbook to linux using samba.

Connecting from macbook to linux using samba.

 I was not able to connect to my linux machine from my macbook air using smb. I found the following string:

smb://WORKSPACE%5cUsername@Hostname/Username/

And putting this string into the Connect to Server box I connected right now. Weird that this didn't work in the gui.

That is %5c between the WORKSPACE and Username.


Now it is leaving little ._ files on the network drive when you load an image.  This is supposed to turn those little dot turd files off from the mac side.

defaults write com.apple.desktopservices DSDontWriteNetworkStores -bool true


Then reboot.
