[Bug 731976] Re: SAMBA - Can't access Windows 7 computer via SAMBA
Alright, Firstly, André let me sincerely apologize for thinking that your original idea, of wiping the clients was ludicrous, as it would seem that the problem was on their side. I was so frustrated with my computers/samba this weekend, I decided to try one last thing and formatted/reinstalled two of my Windows 7 machines. Lo and behold, the problem is solved - I can't believe that the problem would be on the client's side - Or at least, I was so sure it's samba! Anyway, bottom line is, I also got my SAMBA working 100%, by, strangely enough, reinstalling Windows 7. I haven't tested if samba gives the same problems on Mac or other Linux boxes - but my preliminary testing would indicate that they don't have this problem.

I've made an interesting discovery, if someone also experiencing the problem could also check it: If you add, 'public = yes' (without quotes) to the share, and remove any valid users, read list, force user, etc, are you able to access the share? This seems to be working for me, and seems to be a valid temporary workaround, unfortunately, this will completely disable any form of access control, or write privileges. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/731976 Title: SAMBA - Can't access Windows 7 computer via SAMBA -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 731976] Re: SAMBA - Can't access Windows 7 computer via SAMBA
Hi Clint, Unfortunately reproducing the error, isn't so easy, since I spoke to a friend of mine, and he is having no issues, I even took his smb.conf file, overwrote mine, and the errors are still the same. What I can do, is create a video, upload to youtube, and then you can see step by step what is and isn't working - I know that's not the proper way, but this Samba reinstall has dumbfounded me. Other than that, I can only keep uploaded the same log files, and config files. As much as I didn't like André's solution (thought I appreciate it), it's beginning to look like a worthwhile attempt, even though I created a virtual installation of windows 7 with bridged networking, that also didn't help. If someone could paste their working samba config here, which I could try, that would be appreciated. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/731976 Title: SAMBA - Can't access Windows 7 computer via SAMBA -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 731976] Re: SAMBA - Can't access Windows 7 computer via SAMBA
Hi Andrè, Thank you for your comment, however, I do not agree that recovering a whole system image, is a solution, nor a workaround. In my case, the Windows 7 clients never changed, the ubuntu machine/SAMBA installation did. The problem is also not isolated to one or two clients, but all of them, which leads me to think the the problem, lies with the ubuntu machine. Also, the Windows XP machine in my network, is also having difficulties connecting to the new ubuntu/samba machine. ** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/731976 Title: SAMBA - Can't access Windows 7 computer via SAMBA -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 731976] Re: SAMBA - Can't access Windows 7 computer via SAMBA
Hi guys, I know what i'm about to say will sound down-right strange, but my ubuntu 10.10 server (dist-upgrade from 10.04), the samba server worked flawless. But now, I installed Ubuntu 10.10 desktop, and Samba 3.5.4 is giving me the exact same issues. No matter what username/password I type in, samba will reject the Windows 7 client. I've been searching forums for the last week, and no solution has proven itself. I even disabled "Send LM & NTLM responses Minimum session security for NTLM SSP > Disable Require 128-bit encryption", which proved useful for many people, as well as specifying the SMB ports to 445. Yet I never had to do this with the server-samba. The samba log is riddled with errors such as these: [2011/03/21 09:26:33.584441, 0] lib/util_sock.c:1441(get_peer_addr_internal) getpeername failed. Error was Transport endpoint is not connected read_fd_with_timeout: client 0.0.0.0 read error = Connection reset by peer. [2011/03/20 17:58:59.403390, 1] smbd/service.c:678(make_connection_snum) create_connection_server_info failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED I can 100% confirm, that the logon user, is correct, and password is correct. The one strange thing I have noticed, that by default, connecting to the linux box, or any other machine for that matter, would normall allow you to see all the shares first, such as printers, etc. Then only when you go into the folders, it would ask you for your credentials. What's happening now, is that it asked for credentials immediately, the only credentials that seem to work was root, but then to access the folders, no credentials worked, even after I added root to those directory permissions. I tried the credentials on a XP machine, I could log onto the machine (see all shared items), but couldn't access any folders. config: http://pastebin.com/L5FiCaVg Let me know if you guys need the complete log files or more config files. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/731976 Title: SAMBA - Can't access Windows 7 computer via SAMBA -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
