  • Post Install
• Fstab
• NFS Configuration
• Samba Configuration
• Starship
  • Installation
• Zerotier
  • Installation
  • Joining

Cups

Cups is installed by default on Armbian, but we must enable remote access to admin and also enable the sharing of printers. In case of a HP printer it is advised to install hplip as well.

sudo cupsctl --remote-admin --remote-any --share-printers
sudo usermod -a -G lpadmin $USER
sudo apt-get install hplip

In your desktop/laptop you must enable the following service so the printers recognized by your OrangePi are discovered automatically.

sudo systemctl status cups-browsed.service

Zsh

Before we proceed with this antibody must be installed either via the script. Or by using dpkg with .deb release in their Github releases page.

Installation

sudo apt-get install zsh

Change shell for user

chsh -s /bin/zsh

Post Install

• Copy over your config file to ~/.zshrc.
• Then we need to copy over the ~/.zsh_plugins.txt file with the antobody plugins

Once the above commands are run we execute the following

antibody bundle < .zsh_plugins.txt > .zsh_plugins.sh

Fstab

We need to run sudo blkid to get the UUID of all the devices. We can then use this UUID in /ets/fstab

UUID=xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx       /mnt/Documents  ext4 defaults 0 1

Replace x's with a valid UUID from blkid command.

NFS Configuration

We must first install the kernel server with the following command.

sudo apt-get install nfs-kernel-server

Then in /etc/exports we can give read/write access to the NFS drive depending on the IP like so

/mnt/Documents <write-ip>(rw,all_squash,insecure,async,no_subtree_check,anonuid=0,anongid=0) *(ro,all_squash,insecure,async,no_subtree_check,anonuid=0,anongid=0)

Replace <write-ip> with a valid IP address.

Then run the following to restart the daemon

sudo systemctl restart nfs-server.service

Samba Configuration

Install samba via armbian-config TUI.

After installation in /etc/samba/smb.conf add the following code to expose a directory.

[OPi4BFS]
  comment = Orange Pi FileSystem
  path = /mnt/Documents
  read only = yes
  guest ok = yes

And modify the hosts allow command in the same config file under [global]

hosts allow = 192.168.0. <another-ip-1> <another-ip-2> localhost

Replace <another-ip-i>'s with valid IP addresses.

Then run the following command to restart the service

sudo systemctl restart smbd.service

Starship

Before we proceed with the installation Rust must be installed.

Installation

sudo apt-get install pkg-config
cargo install starship

Before installing ensure that max frequency of CPU is reduced and governer changed to conservative using armbian-config TUI to stop it from overheating.

After that edit your config in ~/.config/starship.toml

Zerotier

Installation

curl -s https://install.zerotier.com | sudo bash

Joining

sudo zerotier-cli join <network-id-here>

Replace <network-id-here> with the actual network ID.

Enabling Daemon

sudo systemctl enable zerotier-one
sudo systemctl start zerotier-one

Rossa

sudo snap install rossa --devmode --edge

Rossa is a SimpleHTTPServer made by myself in Rust.
