In this case, specifically lack of knowledge. Full access requires more than just port 139 (netbios), you also need port 445 (SMB). So I didn't know I needed to check port 445 also. It turns out the firewall was not quite correctly configured and so it was rejecting port 445 and causing this error. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
