Source: Connecting Linux to a Bubba 2

If you don’t know, the Bubba 2 is a piece of hardware, driven by the Linux operating system, created by ecXito. The Bubba 2 can stream media, serve files, share printers, and more. How? The Bubba 2 uses Samba to share out services and files. Because it uses Samba, connecting to the Bubba 2 is simple - that’s what Samba does best. But when you have a Linux machine you want to connect to the Bubba 2 you won’t find anything helpful in the manuals.
In fact even getting to the web-based administration screen isn’t easy from the Linux point of view. The instructions say point your browser to http://bubba and log in. When using a browser on Linux this will take you to search results for “bubba”. And the only mention of an IP address in the instructions is 192.168.10.1. Since my local network uses 192.168.1.x I couldn’t see the address. So what could I do? Let’s take a look.
