Well it seems that something does get out of sync on windows 7 machines that causes them to have trouble accessing samba. However, this doesn't sound like a bug in samba, so I'm marking this one as Invalid.
Thanks so much to Andre and kwagga for all the work and feedback trying to reproduce the issue! ** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- 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
