As many of you probably know, OS X Mavericks uses a home-grown smb server for doing file sharing with other computers, instead of Samba. In the long run, Apple is going to use smb2 for inter-Mac communication as well as interoperability with other OS's.
Unfortunately, I'm now not able to connect to SMB shares on Mavericks from my linux machine. My old creaky Fedora 14 install certainly won't talk to it (Samba 3), but Fedora 19 will, but only with smbclient, or gvfs via nautilus or nemo. Trying to do an actual kernel mount fails, usually with "mount error(95): Operation not supported." This is with Kernel 3.10. smbclient works fine and I can browse the files. This is with Samba4. I think there's some options to pass to mount that might make this work, but I don't know what they are. Apparently Apple's smbd does not like it when Linux tries to negotiate for unix file permissions on the protocol. I've tried passing nounix,ntlmssp as options as someone suggested, but no dice. As a last resort, I will install Samba on OS X (http://eduo.info/apps/smbup) Anyone got this to work? Alternatively, is there anyway to configure Apple's smbX daemon to support SMB1? /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
