I have set up a samba share on my Ubuntu PC, and want to be able to send its content through the RPi to my sound system. I have been successful in attaching a portable USB HD to the RPi, and accessing its contents via the LMS on pCP. I am unable to enter any text into the Setup Network Disk Mount on pCP. The cursor remains an arrow no matter how many times I click in the boxes, and as you can see in the screenshot, the name of my wifi network and password is already entered. I cannot change that, and the entries are incorrect in terms of the network share. merlinus's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66548 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109404 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Hi. I am new to the world of RPi and this forum, and look forward to much learning and sharing. Thanks to everyone who makes this possible! I just got an RPI 3B with HiFiBerry digi+ add-on board, and loaded piCorePlayer 3.10-audio. It comes up with an IP address in my router, but I cannot access the board via SSH. I get a "cannot connect" error message. This occurs whether using Putty or a terminal from my Ubuntu 16.04 desktop computer. I had to install openssh-server on all my computers in order to access them via ssh over the LAN, so perhaps therein lies the problem with the RPi.
