Public bug reported:
When the server password is expired, Ubuntu gives no error message at
all.
Ubuntu 9.04 x86 - up to date as of Wed Jul 8 18:43:33 UTC 2009
Steps:
- log in (as main/only user)
- select menu Places / Computer
in File Browser window
- select "Network" in left pane (location changes to network:/// )
there is already a near computer shown as icon
- double click the computer icon
- fill out the dialog (user, pass)
After few seconds, the user/pass dialog reappears.
Repeat, until bored.
(a semilong story about what everything I tried to resolve the problem -
not printed here)
Checking with smbclient reveals that the used password was expired.
Luckily I know that the Ubuntu GUI is next to useless and have experience with
command line.
If this would happen to my father, we would give me a call as say "When you get
home set mu up Windows, which works"
(relation to bug #1 ?)
