SMB4K Issues

Had to run this to get SMB4k to work

- chmod +s `which mount.cifs` (then)

- chmod +s `which umount.cifs` (then)

I had to “visudo” and make the end look like this:

# Same thing without a password

# %

wheel   ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: SETENV: ALL

# Samples

# %users  ALL=/sbin/mount /cdrom,/sbin/umount /cdrom

# %users  localhost=/sbin/shutdown -h now

# Entries for Smb4K users.

# Generated by Smb4K. Please do not modify!

User_Alias      SMB4KUSERS = fred Defaults:SMB4KUSERS     env_keep="PASSWD USER"

SMB4KUSERS      linux-laptop80g = NOPASSWD: /opt/kde3/bin/smb4k_kill

SMB4KUSERS      linux-laptop80g = NOPASSWD: /opt/kde3/bin/smb4k_umount

SMB4KUSERS      linux-laptop80g = NOPASSWD: /opt/kde3/bin/smb4k_mount

# End of Smb4K user entries.

LCD Brightness

Installed Nvidia drivers.  Then to get fn keys working for brightness adjustment I did:

1. Edit “/etc/modprobe.d/xorg-x11-driver-video” as root
2. Comment the line “install video /bin/true”
3. Edit “/etc/sysconfig/kernel” as root
4. Look for the field MODULES_LOADED_ON_BOOT=”"
5. Append module name “video” here
6. Reboot.

Ravenshield Server Setup

Did you check this? You’ll need to enable WAN and anonymous internet requests so that player’s pings show up:

Block WAN Requests
Use these features to enhance your network’s security and filter multicasting.
Block Anonymous Internet Requests. This keeps your network from being “pinged” or detected and reinforces
your network security by hiding your network ports, so it is more difficult for intruders to work their way into your
network. Select Enabled to block anonymous Internet requests, or Disabled to allow anonymous Internet
requests.

Raven Shield requires the following ports to be open in your firewall/router:

Raven Shield requires ports: 7777 – 7787 and 8777 – 8787 Incoming UDP

Ubi.com requires ports: 80, 6667, 40000-42000
