I am coming from a related discussion on UbuntuForums that concerns
similar behaviour (although related to folders)
Having upgraded 3 systems from 8.10 to 9.04 (2 physical, 1 virtual) I
have been seeing the exact same behaviour on them all. The SMBClient
set up that was working perfectly on 8.10 was not functioning on 9.04
after upgrade.
It would not show member of the workgroup or domain ("smbtree" would
come back empty), but I could navigate directly to a folder on a machine
I knew to be shared using the nautilus address bar (smb://<ip
address>/<shared folder>).
On all three systems I found that installing Firestarter, allowing ports
137-149 and 445 as well as editing "/etc/firestarter/inbound/setup" as
shown below cured the issue.
From:
# Allow response traffic
$IPT -A INBOUND -p tcp -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
$IPT -A INBOUND -p udp -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
To:
# Allow response traffic
$IPT -A INBOUND -p tcp -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
$IPT -A INBOUND -p udp -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
I am not sure why this should have any effect, I did not need to do this
on Intrepid.
SMBClient info:
u...@machine:~$ apt-cache policy smbclient
smbclient:
