I have a windows share created using samba .

It is located in my ubunutu server /mnt/user_new I want to copy files from /var/www/myproject/files/ to /mnt/user_new/files . This is for backup my files . and delete the original files .

I am using PHP . form PHP i tried 

$file = '/var/www/html/bmw/myproject/files/0000000.pdf';
$newfile = '/mnt/user_new/0000000.pdf';

if (!copy($file, $newfile)) {
        echo "failed to copy $file...\n";
}

But i get a permission denied error . 

Severity: Warning

Message: copy(/mnt/user_new/0000000.pdf) [function.copy]: failed to open stream: Permission denied

Is there any way to copy files from my Linux server to windows share . I have a username and password for access window share , but i don't know how to use it here . is there any way i can pass username and password .

To be honest this is my first time working with Samba , and the windows share is created by Network administrator . I have spent nearly 8 hours for this simple copy . but could not do .

Please help me . thanks in advance .

Hi i am using a ubuntu server , some other person has made it . i checked my host name by typing hostname it says vps .

I checked in my etc/hostname file it says the name is vps

in /ect/hosts file it has 

127.0.0.1       localhost
127.0.1.1       vps.xxxxxx.no vps
xxx.xx.xxx.xx   xxxxxx.com

and xxx.xx.xxx.xx is my site's ip address

also this site is accessed by a url different than xxxxxx.com . lets say my sitec is accessed via zzzzzzz.com

my problems are

in /ect/hosts it says site host is xxxxxx.com but you can access it by a different name zzzzzzz.com . so where can you set that setting ?

also my hostname is showing as vps and what is the logic behind that

I Know these are dumb questions but I can not find any thing .

I have installed nodeJS on Ubuntu with following code 

sudo apt-get install nodejs

Since I am a new user for ubuntu I also ran this code too

sudo apt-get install npm

Now when I type 

 nodejs --version

It shows 

v0.6.19

I checked and saw latest nodeJS version is 0.10.26

How can I update my version of nodeJS to 0.10.26?

I tried with 

 sudo apt-get install <packagename>
 sudo apt-get install --only-upgrade <packagename>

but no luck.

apt
