ehh at least I hope it will help.Of course we already have in mind that Citrix supports the use of a Raspberry Pi (30€) for use as a thin client HDX Ready and able to optimize the multimedia layer and downloaded to the device its heavy graphics acceleration. It would take me 30s to explain in real life. ufff some things are so difficult to explain. If it mounted drive fine, you can restart your rpi and all should be fine. Once this is issued your USB drive should be mounted and available in /srv/usb. and finally to test if all is working fine * obviosuly the UUID here is just example you will have a different one. # Auto Mount USB drive by UUID <- this is just comment line so you know in future what you did ^^ That UUID, is the unique identifier, once you know that, your /etc/fstab entry should be something like: It will show something along the lines of: You can check that ID of the drive by typing: A neat trick to avoid that is to assign in /etc/fstab mounting the drive by it's unique ID of the drive. What may (and most likely will happen) your USB drive will get a different /dev/sdX each time you re-connect it to your rpi. You would have to create /etc/fstab entry in order to make sure it auto-mounts every time it gets restarted. It's just sometimes it is hard to answer when missing some details of the setup.Īlso, by default, your USB drive will not be mounted once you restart your rpi. Once editing the file we need to make some changes. Time to create a folder which we gonna link to our samba shareĦ. $ sudo cp /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf_bakĥ. It is not a silly idea to make sure we have a backup file.

Make sure all updates in place and update what need upgradingĤ. VIM is great but maybe a bit over the top to start with, so swap 'vim' with 'pico' or 'nano' or whatever file editor you have installed. But this shoudl give you a good start.Īlso I am used to a file editor called VIM (point 6).

So not password protected! If you want something more secure, read up a bit more on permission or create a user specifically for connecting to samba share. Please mind you this was for an open public share (point 8). it is better and quicker in the long run, even though it feel a bit overwhelming at first.īelow is guide I wrote for myself last time I did some raspberry work. In the end of the day, get to know your terminal commands to configure things. If you really need to have some form of GUI management maybe look at at Webmin ( ).

Install Samba and configure it (/etc/samba/smb.conf)Ĭreate your shares and give permissions where necessary Use SSH to remotely manage and configure itĬonnect USB drive to RaspberyPi and make sure it auto-mounts on boot-up (google: /etc/fstab) Set static IP address on your Raspbery Pi You can configure everything using just console. On a side note, if you plan to use Raspbery Pi as a NAS you do not need GUI (startx).

Alternatively, to VNC, you may want to look at NoMachine software ( this is what I used in the past and it worked great (not sure if it will work on raspbery pi tho). You first have to create a VNC server on your linux (raspberry pi), and then connect to it using your Windows machine. Your first attempt at running VNC was a better choice.

If you want to use a desktop GUI then SSH is no good to you, you will not be able to start GUI by simply typing startx in your putty client. It is there so you can manage your raspbery Pi without having to use monitor/keyboard connected to it. It was designed to give you a remote access to linux terminal only. I think you are getting all mixed up mate.
