No. It just means your call to smbclient won't result in any information being cached systemwide for the other users, which is normal when calling smbclient as a normal user. -- problem accessing shared folders https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/363576 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- 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 363576] Re: problem accessing shared folders
Thanks, that was very helpful. I changed /etc/samba/smb.conf to include: name resolve order = lmhosts bcast host wins and it works now. One more question: in the response above to smbclient -d4 there is a line that says: tdb(unnamed): tdb_open_ex: could not open file /var/run/samba/gencache.tdb: Permission denied This looks like a bad thing.

[Bug 363576] Re: problem accessing shared folders
Thanks for the extra info. I think there is no bug here. When you use libsmbclient (by smbclient or nautilus) to access "//nasdrive/public" it must first resolve nasdrive to an IP address. It does so by several methods, trying by default in that order: lmhosts, host, wins, bcast. In your case it first tries to find "nasdrive" in /etc/samba/lmhosts but it's not there. Then it tries classic name resolution... and there it finds a match: nasdrive = 206.112.100.151. So it means something in your name resolution (/etc/hosts file, DNS...) resolves "nasdrive" as "206.112.100.151". For example you're using OpenDNS and it is kind enough to answer something completely wrong based on its search engine. In all cases, it's not a bug in samba. Solutions to fixing it include: - rename "nasdrive" to something your name resolution won't find - fix your name resolution so that "ping nasdrive" doesn't go to 206.112.100.151 - add nasdrive to your lmhosts file - changing "name resolve order" in /etc/samba/smb.conf so that bcast appears before host and the nasdrive name is found by broadcast rather than host resolution (noisy and wrong, like what Windows does) ** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- problem accessing shared folders https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/363576 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- 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 363576] Re: problem accessing shared folders
Deduplicating until we are sure it's the same bug. It looks like a name resolution issue: querying "nasdrive" on the windows network returns 206.112.100.151 for some reason, then you get a timeout accessing that unknown IP. Running smbtree sends a local broadcast to which the nasdrive responds and then the computer caches that information, until next reboot or cache timeout.

Also, I thought this worked before in 8.04, but this isn't something I use a lot. I'm not sure when it broke. Fairly recently, I got a new router and switch. Nothing fancy, just the standard Linksys stuff. Could that cause a problem like this?
