Amiga & samba

[Piru]

@oleimann

Since you run it in the background - as long as one instance is running and using TCP/IP listening ports, a second time will not work, since only one application instance can have a listener port open at the same time.

You would have to run the command somehow with both shares in the commandline (if it supports it).

Why would smbfs be listening for incoming connections?

I've successfully had 3 mounts mounted at the same time, using separate smbfs instances.

I don't use samba at all, just smbfs.

@flaviosr

you mean you can "see" other PC without samba installed and configured?

Yes. I can see the volumes I mount with smbfs.

Only using smbfs?

Correct.

in this case other PC could not see the Amigas, right?

Right. In my setup there's no need to share the local HDD (most of the data is on 1.2TB linux samba rig).

@dfreniche

It's a SAN, a RAID setup or just a bunch of HD's ?

Couple of HDDs.
