[Bug 29261] smb:// to a security=share mode samba share prompts for password anyway
Public bug report changed: https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/29261 Comment: Not precisely. security=share means that it pays no attention to a user name and normally does not require a password at all. Think of it as Windows 98 mode. The real reason I feel like the behavior is wrong is because it does not match the behavior of Windows. If a windows client connects to a samba server with security=share it will list all of it's shares without prompting for a password. If the windows client tries to connect to a share that needs a password it will prompt for one. It seems like nautilus is prompting for credentials before finding out if it needs them. I could be wrong, and I will double-check my samba configuration and test against windows again as well. If it turns out nautilus is buggy in this respect I will reopen the bug. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 29261] smb:// to a security=share mode samba share prompts for password anyway
Public bug report changed: https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/29261 Comment: I don't know what KDE does for it. What kind of security is "=share"? Is that supposed to work without any password? -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 29261] smb:// to a security=share mode samba share prompts for password anyway
Public bug report changed: https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/29261 Comment: Not precisely. security=share means that it pays no attention to a user name and normally does not require a password at all. Think of it as Windows 98 mode. The real reason I feel like the behavior is wrong is because it does not match the behavior of Windows. If a windows client connects to a samba server with security=share it will list all of it's shares without prompting for a password. If the windows client tries to connect to a share that needs a password it will prompt for one. It seems like nautilus is prompting for credentials before finding out if it needs them. I could be wrong, and I will double-check my samba configuration and test against windows again as well. If it turns out nautilus is buggy in this respect I will reopen the bug. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Public bug report changed: https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/29261 Comment: gnome-vfs tends to ask the password in any case because you can have access to extra shares with a password and less with an anonymous mode. So the first reaction is to ask for a password then to fallback to anynomous. Does that makes sense to you? -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Public bug report changed: https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/29261 Comment: It does. This is probably the correct behaviour. It becomes a little annoying (particularly because you can't cache your choice of anonymous, at least you couldn't last time I checked). It's also annoying because just browsing for servers will prompt you for passwords for the same reason. I think I would be comfortable closing this bug. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
