How can I access my files on the raspberry pi HA installation remotely from my iMac by using netatalk? I installed netatalk on the pi user but I can’t find the home file? When I try to install netatalk on the home assistant user I am asked for a password, which I don’t really know.
I don’t know anything about netatalk. But I just set up a samba share following @bruhautomation 's excellent guide. I just use finder, connect to the share, and browse to my files.
The thing is that once I have installed it, I know how to set it up etc. The thing is when trying to install it as the homeassitant user, it does not allow. Will further test.
I use MacOS and using samba on my Pi to access the config files is very easy and straightforward - any reason why you want to use netatalk specifically?
I use both on different servers and have always found netatalk a little more complicated to get working.
However as the prompt suggests, you are being asked for the sudo password which is normally ‘raspberry’ on a fresh install but it does depend how you have your pi set up? If you don’t know your sudo password and you installed the system, you could be in for problems in the future…
Thanks for your replies guys. I figured I do not need to be on the homeassistant account to install a remote access server.
The reason why I have not used samba is because originally I though only windows could make use of it. I have it a test run but is there any chance that any of you could send me your config file? I don’t know exactly how to lay everything out.
I installed HA using the manual installation and it’s running in a virtual environment.
