I got the “regular” turris omnia. I was wondering what is the easiest way to share files (locally)?
Trying to share files with local windows-computers.
So far I have not used any advanced features, only great speed
I didn’t mangage to configure SAMBA properly, Turris “found” the USB-HD I had plugged In but that was it. Could not connect to it
Is it possible to configure SAMBA only using Luci? I’m not too experienced with linux as you may have guessed. I’m afraid to screw up my router.
Also I was thinking about setting up a FTP server on the turris, but guides I have seen so far has not been with external HDD.
Which one is the easiest? Can either of these be done with only Luci?
Yes I tried to search. Only found too complicated answers or irrelevant ones
Maybe I’m way over my head with this advanced router
For FTP server configuration is decribed here https://mihail.stoynov.com/2014/11/22/openwrt-ftp-installation-and-configuration-vsftpd/ you have to ssh or telnet and configure it from command line or use midnight commander to modify scripts. After login to turris commandline by ssh or telnet install midnight commander by opkg install mc then you could use mc command to start Norton Like commander to edit files as it is easier than use Linux command line editors.
Be aware that for both cases you have to adjust you hdd path to your situation and modify commands and scripts according to your situation.
