[Bug 206585] Re: cannot browse windows shares via gvfs-smb
Recent experience with the network leads me to believe that this is, at least in part, a Windows Browser-Master problem. Windows is known to have trouble (some say it's broken) with browsing peer-to-peer networks. One computer in the network takes the role of being a browser master. There is a defined hierarchy of who does it - generally the machine that is on longest but has the more recent operating system. The browser-master is the machine that stores a list of host names and their ip addresses, enabling browsing of the network. I think that Linux machines on a Windows network rely on the Browser-Master for browsing. Setting up a Windows computer as a broswser-master is inaccurately and incompletely documented and supported by Microsoft, who really you to have a Windows server. My experience that the process of a browser election can be completely confused if other machines are on the network, leading to unreliable browsing with both Windows and Linux. In particular it may be that a non-Windows DHCP server inhibits Windows machines from being browser-masters. Browsing problems on our network seem to have disappeared since we've installed an SME server (www.contribs.org) AS A DOMAIN/WORKGROUP CONTROLLER. This has resolved our browsing problems. -- cannot browse windows shares via gvfs-smb https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/206585 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

thank you for your bug report, does browsing it using smbclient from a command line works correctly? is the share listed in the network location? ** Changed in: gvfs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low Assignee: (unassigned) = Ubuntu Desktop Bugs (desktop-bugs) Status: New = Incomplete -- cannot browse windows shares via gvfs-smb https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/206585 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
