Re: [Samba] XP network breaks when shares are accessed by Fedora 19 smbclient
I'll try again with a (hopefully) simpler example. I am having a strange problem when accessing XP shared folders. My XP box connects to internet via dialup, hosts my ethernet lan and provides Internet Connection Sharing to the lan. The XP lan base is 192.168.0.0 and the XP user Owner is on 192.168.0.1 and hostname is WILLY. My Fedora 19 laptop is dual boot win7/fedora19. Booted to win7 I can see XP shares fine. Booted to F19 I have problems. That ends up on 192.168.0.148 with hostname f19.splurge.org. I do have an initial smb.conf but I am just trying to connect to xp via smbclient at this point. --- So here's what happens: If I try to use smbclient to access XP shares on willy an alert box comes up on xp and dialup is broken. If XP machine is NOT dialed up I do not get willy and instead get listing for f19. Example: --- Attempt to connect to XP box WILLY via samba. First with XP NOT connected to internet: ~ smbclient -L WILLY Enter howdy's password: Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 4.0.6] Sharename Type Comment - --- Share Disk IPC$IPC IPC Service (Samba Server Version 4.0.6) Brother-HL-2240-series Printer Brother HL-2240 series howdyDisk Home Directories Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 4.0.6] Server Comment ---- f19 Samba Server Version 4.0.6 WorkgroupMaster ---- WORKGROUP I see NO mention of any shares I have on WILLY. Everything there relates to f19.splurg.org's samba server. Share is the name of a share I designated in /etc/samba/smb.conf howdy is my /home/howdy directory which is also designated to be shared. Why don't I see any WILLY stuff??? Oddly, I think this is being sent to me from WILLY When WILLY is rebooting I get this until it is fully loaded: ~ smbclient -L WILLY Enter howdy's password: Connection to WILLY failed (Error NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL) NOW I start dial up on the XP machine and try same: ~ smbclient -L WILLY Enter howdy's password: Domain=[WILLY] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager] Sharename Type Comment - --- PDFCreator Printer eDoc Printer My DocumentsDisk BrotherHPrinter HL-2240 IPC$IPC Remote IPC SharedDocs Disk print$ Disk Printer Drivers testdir Disk D- CD PlayerDisk downloads Disk Buzzshare Disk cprogs Disk MightyFAX Printer MightyFAX Printer Driver Printer Printer HP PSC 1500 series Domain=[WILLY] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager] Server Comment ---- WorkgroupMaster ---- This is where the XP alert box comes up.

As said above an alert box pops up and dns lookup is disabled. The alert box remains open waiting for my input: file report y/n If I do not make a selection I can still ping and browse using numeric addresses. When I do make a selection I cannot get to internet on either machine and I can not disconnect the dialup manually. So I reboot.

Re: [Samba] XP network breaks when shares are accessed by Fedora 19 smbclient
I also added line for f19 in /etc/hosts. So there I have: -- 127.0.0.1 f19.splurge.org localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 192.168.0.1 WILLY 192.168.0.148 f19 -- Does any of that look problematic?

[Samba] XP network breaks when shares are accessed by Fedora 19 smbclient
Hi. This is my first samba install. I have an XP box which connects to internet via dialup DUN, is the base of the lan and provides InternetConnectionSharing to the lan. The XP lan base is 192.168.0.0 and the XP user Owner is on 192.168.0.1 and hostname is WILLY. My Fedora 19 laptop on 192.168.0.148 with hostname splurge.f19. I am having problems from the start using smbclient. When I do a listing of WILLY I get this: ~ smbclient -L WILLY Enter how2's password: Domain=[WILLY] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager] Sharename Type Comment - --- My DocumentsDisk BrotherHPrinter HL-2240 IPC$IPC Remote IPC SharedDocs Disk print$ Disk Printer Drivers D- CD PlayerDisk downloads Disk Printer Printer HP PSC 1500 series Domain=[WILLY] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager] Server Comment ---- WorkgroupMaster ---- The output looks OK for WILLY, downloads is a share and all. -But- th problem is that as that is printing it pauses for 1-2 minutes after the Domain= line at which time the XP box pops up an alert box that says: Generic host process for win32 services has encountered a problem and needs to close. At this point I can ping 192.168.0.1 from F19 but I can no longer use ping an outside internet name addresses use Firefox or Thunderbird from F19. But for a short time I can ping or browse a numeric ip address. So it seems that DNS is broken at that point but then that deteriorates and I can not do that either. At that point I can not Disconnect XP DUN. Rebooting the XP machine fixes the problem but will fail if I try again. Ok, so now it gets weird. The above is when I am dialed up on the XP box. If I am NOT dialed up I get the output below. It does NOT show the XP shares !!! but DOES show my F19 /home/how2 (how2) and /home/share (Share) shares as defined in my /etc/samba/smb.conf: ~ smbclient -L WILLY Enter how2's password: Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 4.0.6] Sharename Type Comment - --- IPC$IPC IPC Service (Samba Server Version 4.0.6) Share Disk Brother-HL-2240-series Printer Brother HL-2240 series how2Disk Home Directories Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 4.0.6] Server Comment ---- LOCALHOSTSamba Server Version 4.0.6 WILLYWillly's old Dell Celeron 2.4ghz 256mb ram WorkgroupMaster ---- WORKGROUPLOCALHOST If I dialup at this point nameserver is good across lan. But if try the smbclient -L I will get the same behavior and error. It seems to me that the problem is on the XP box but I don't know what to do there. Any help would be appreciated.
