My employer offers mydesktop/Guacamole as a client-less remote desktop. Frequently I get 403 Forbidden errors because my IP is not recognized as in the correct range. I’m not sure why, but we have a workaround: connecting to webaccess first, we can then connect to Guacamole from there.
Read/write access for Samba/cfis drive remotely using GNU/Linux
I’ve had some issues with accessing a remote network drive: I didn’t have the permission to write on the network drive, even though I should. Changing the permissions manually would have worked, but that seemed like the wrong approach. I didn’t log into this particular drive for a while, so I figured my mount options were probably incorrect. Turns out (as usual) that the solution was to set the uid option:
mkdir -p ~/mnt/remote_username
sudo mount -t cifs -o user=remote_username,domain=domain.com,uid=local_username //home/remote_username$ ~/mnt/remote_username
