My name is Tony, and I bought an [[XO:_The_Children%27s_Machine|XO Laptop]] for my son, Miguel. Although he's two, I'm hoping this will be a laptop he can grow older with.

I have a server at my house (currently a web/mail/file server for various websites I run) that I'm trying to add [[School_server|XS Server]] capability on. I'm using [[Ubuntu]] though, and so I'm working to get the [[XS_Server_Software|XS Software]] to work on it.

The server's capabilities are: Intel Pentium D 930, 4 GB of memory, 500 GB of hd space (more will be added as needed should it be necessary.

I'm in the process of getting a WG111 USB Wireless Adaptor to serve as a School node. I'll post details of how it's going at some point.

Had to use the [[WPA_Manual_Setting|WPA Fix]] The final option, with the shell script, worked wonders for me (WPA2, 13 character passcode)

==Installing Hamachi==

Part of the reason I want to install [http://www.hamachi.cc Hamachi] is so my son will be able to view videos on our home server. I have DVD's ripped to the harddrive, and <code>[http://www.gnome.org/projects/totem/ totem]</code> is pre-installed on the OLPC. I've got Hamachi VPN on all the computers in the house, and would like to add it.

===Downloading Hamachi===

You need to get a copy of the code for Hamachi and put it in the <code>/usr/src</code> folder, We'll start by switching to the superuser, then getting the source code
<code><PRE>
su
wget http://files.hamachi.cc/linux/hamachi-0.9.9.9-20-lnx.tar.gz
tar -xvzf hamachi-0.9.9.9-20-lnx.tar.gz
</PRE></code>

This creates a folder <CODE>hamachi-0.9.9.9-20-lnx</CODE> which will hold the source code.

===Installing <code>make</code>===

To continue the install. you have to switch to the directory and type <code>make install</code>. <code>make</code> is not already installed on OLPC, so you need to install it by typing <code>yum install make</code>. It should install all the necessary parts to make.

===Installing the Hamachi program===

To install the hamachi executables (<code>hamachi</code>, <code>hamachi-init</code>, and <code>tuncfg</code>), you'll need to change to the directory and type <code>make install</code>. Then you need to type <code>tuncfg</code> to start the tunnel configuration (Hamachi uses ssh to tunnel to other members of the VPN.)

<code><PRE>
cd hamachi-0.9.9.9-20-lnx.tar.gz
make install
tuncfg
</PRE></CODE>

===Accessing the existing Hamachi VPN===

Set up a shell file (I called mine <code>hama.sh</code>) with the following lines of code:
<code><pre>
tuncfg
hamachi-init -c /etc/hamachi
hamachi -c /etc/hamachi start
hamachi -c /etc/hamachi set-nick olpc
hamachi -c /etc/hamachi login
hamachi -c /etc/hamachi join NETWORKNAME NETWORKPASSWORD
hamachi -c /etc/hamachi go-online NETWORKNAME
</pre></code>

In the code above, change olpc to whatever name you want, or leave it. Change <code>NETWORKNAME</code> and <code>NETWORKPASSWORD</code> to the VPM Network Name and Network Password.

Then type ./hama.sh to execute it. This will connect you to the network.

===At this point...===

If you type <code>ifconfig</code>, you should see something like this:

<code><pre>
bash-3.2# ifconfig

</PRE></CODE>

The important part is you now have <code>ham0</code> as a network adaptor.

===Mounting the directories===

At this point, I can use ssh/sftp to access computers on my Hamachi network. However, I now need to figure out how to mount the linux shares onto my OLPC.

I've tried installing <code>samba</code> (<code>yum install samba</code>) but it doesn't work :

<CODE><PRE>
bash-3.2# mount //5.71.172.39/video /home/olpc/video
mount: unknown filesystem type 'cifs'
bash-3.2# mount //5.71.172.39/video /home/olpc/video -t smbfs
mount: unknown filesystem type 'smbfs'
bash-3.2# mount //5.71.172.39/video /home/olpc/video -t ext3
mount: special device //5.71.172.39/video does not exist
</PRE><CODE>

Any ideas?
