Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: samba
I have a cheap NAS box that does not understand the unix extensions of
samba. Other than that, it was more or less working fine in Jaunty.
After recent updates, accessing the box from Karmic is hit-and-miss at
best.
smblient returns undecipherable errors that change from one second to
the next
$ smbclient -L mynas
Enter rolf' password:
protocol negotiation failed: NT_STATUS_END_OF_FILE
$ smbclient -L mynas
Enter rolf's password:
Receiving SMB: Server stopped responding
session request to MYNAS failed (Call returned zero bytes (EOF))
Receiving SMB: Server stopped responding
session request to *SMBSERVER failed (Call returned zero bytes (EOF))
An autofs/smbfs mount with nounix option turned on does see the shares, but the
shares themselves are empty.
$ ll /mnt/smb/mynas/

$ ll /mnt/smb/mynas/backup/

GUI clients such as thunar or nautilus can sometimes access the shares
themselves, but it's hit-and-miss. You never know if it will work today.
Accessing from a hardy box usually works fine.
