Please keep the discussion centered around how to effectively reproduce the bug. Otherwise developers will have no idea how to help with this issue. Workarounds are fine, but should not be the focus of the discussion other than to provide insight into what is causing the issue.
To recap where we seem to be at: * Windows 7 clearly works for some users as a file sharing client of SAMBA. * Windows 7 clearly works for some users as a file sharing server for Ubuntu. * There may have been configuration issues that led to Windows 7 *not* being accessible, since restoring a Windows 7 machine that was affected to its original install settings alleviated the problem. So given that, if you are still affected by this, please provide a clear set of steps users can perform to try and confirm that this bug exists. It sounds like this may be the steps: 1. share a directory on your windows 7 machine 2. browse the windows 7 machine from an Ubuntu 10.10 machine using nautilus expected result: see the shares actual result: see nothing Leaving bug status as Incomplete pending response from an affected user regarding the steps to reproduce. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/731976 Title: SAMBA - Can't access Windows 7 computer via SAMBA -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
