@felixjmm Make sure you have correct (same) workgroup in /etc/samba/smb.conf If you alter the configuration file, restart samba service with 'sudo invoke-rc.d samba restart' Your problem sounds like a issue in network-admin instead. -- Can't browse windows computers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/62155 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 62155] Re: Can't browse windows computers
hi, i have the same problem, but i know how to live with it! i will tell you what is hapenning to me so you can decide if it solves your problem I have 3 computers in a wired-lan at my home. My PC with ubuntu and others with XP. Network Workgroup is perfectly configure in all machines but when i open the network place folder in the ubuntu pc i can´t see the others pcs. So i don´t have connectivity to my lan!!! which is not desirable Trying and trying how to solve this problem i found a simple solution (is a little Annoying but works) belive it or not, aparently ubuntu doens´t save the workgroup that you specified when you configured samba. What i do it this, go to SYSTEM-ADMIN-NETWORK then go to the tab called GENERAL and write again your workgroup and the name of the computer, then save this with a name (could be Home or default) and then apply the changes and exit, after that you will be able to see all your network. after you reboot or powerdown you pc you will have the problem again, but this time you just have to go to SYSTEM-ADMIN-NETWORK and load the configuracion you saved before (called Home or default) and apply the changes again. I dont know why is this happens ... but i know how to live with... -- Can't browse windows computers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/62155 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 62155] Re: Can't browse windows computers
Upps, I just retried it using the same steps. After the first click on the workgroup I got the error message reported in bug 63102. However this time the icon changed from a blank page icon to a network computer icon. I was able to click on it and could browse the computer in the workgroup. I booted from the live dvd the same way as I did last time. This time the Install application was running and I did some partitioning before retrying the network browsing stuff. -- Can't browse windows computers https://launchpad.net/bugs/62155 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 62155] Re: Can't browse windows computers
See bug 63102 for steps to repeat. The icon does not change. However, I'm unable to test opening the share directly because my keyboard (old Cherry via PS/2 adapter) doesn't work on the live CD. I'll try to install it. -- Can't browse windows computers https://launchpad.net/bugs/62155 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm not sure what you mean by the icons changing. I cannot browse the computer - even if I enter the address manually.
