hey, i need help, i saw some posts here that talk about how to move files from share to share inside the system

 

i work with mac so  putty don't work good with...

 

how can i move files from share to share and from share to other computer on the lan?

their is a solution like "virtual desktop" that i can move files easy?

 

thanks

Don't know what other mac user use instead of putty but there must be something that can telnet. Try this.

 

Once you get telnet working login and type mc. That is going to be the easiest thing to get started.

 

Otherwise, you could try the Krusader docker.

open a terminal window and type

telnet -l root tower

(replace tower with the hostname of your unraid server or use the ip)

type in the password of your root user (default is now password, simply hit enter)

 

once you are logged in, type "mc" to run midnight commander, which is a simple file manager tool on linux systems.

 

navigate to your shares under /mnt (with tab you can switch the panels (left/right)

use F5 to copy, F6 to move. you can select items with ctrl+t so you can copy/move multiple items at once

Just be VERY careful with source and destination paths. NEVER copy to a /mnt/user/??? from a /mnt/disk?/??? path, or vice versa. The same files exists in both paths with different full path names, so it is possible to wipe out data if you use the wrong paths.

 

It's easier to do the moving and copying with an external workstation, and if you have a gigabit network, it's not really much if any slower.

If you wanted to move files with a GUI and you have docker setup, you can install the "Dolphin" docker. Dolphin is KDE's default file manager. With this docker, you can access the dolphin interface through a web browser. It's pretty slick.
