Just want to make sure it's understood that smbtree doesn't browse the share when run under specific conditions outlined above - particularly the fact that it was in a live CD session. Under my current, evolving (implementing work-arounds) configuration, smbtree does produce output, listed below.
Are there "bad" interactions among multiple SAMBA servers that cannot be isolated to configuration of single server? Given that many network devices use embedded SAMBA servers, shouldn't Nautilus, hence gvfs, be extremely robust in browsing and mounting shares? I post the following (from current, not-controlled-experiment configuration), noting the "LANMAN" error message, and hoping extraneous information does not muddy diagnosis; but stand by previous experimental results - Iomega NAS should have been browse-able from a live CD session, and was not: === step...@inspiron-ubuntu:~$ findsmb *=DMB +=LMB IP ADDR NETBIOS NAME WORKGROUP/OS/VERSION --------------------------------------------------------------------- 192.168.1.66 IOMEGA-36AE [UTOPIA_BEACH] [R] [R] 192.168.1.100 INSPIRON-UBUNTU [UTOPIA_BEACH] [Unix] [Samba 3.2.3] 192.168.1.102 UBUNTU-810 +[UTOPIA_BEACH] [Unix] [Samba 3.2.3] step...@inspiron-ubuntu:~$ smbclient -L 192.168.1.66 Enter stephen's password: Domain=[UTOPIA_BEACH] OS=[R] Server=[R] Server requested LANMAN password (share-level security) but 'client lanman auth' is disabled tree connect failed: SUCCESS - 0 step...@inspiron-ubuntu:~$ smbtree Password: UTOPIA_BEACH \\UBUNTU-810 Samba 3.2.3 \\UBUNTU-810\clp300 Samsung CLP-300N at 192.168.1.88 \\UBUNTU-810\IPC$ IPC Service (Samba 3.2.3) \\UBUNTU-810\the.kamms the.kamms Samba Share \\UBUNTU-810\household Read Only Samba Share \\UBUNTU-810\gnucash Gnucash Samba Share \\UBUNTU-810\betsey Betsey's Samba Share \\UBUNTU-810\stephen Stephen's Samba Share \\IOMEGA-36AE Server requested LANMAN password (share-level security) but 'client lanman auth' is disabled failed tcon_X with NT_STATUS_OK \\INSPIRON-UBUNTU Inspiron-Ubuntu server (Samba, Ubuntu) \\INSPIRON-UBUNTU\CLP-300N Samsung Color Laser Printer \\INSPIRON-UBUNTU\IPC$ IPC Service (Inspiron-Ubuntu server (Samba, Ubuntu)) \\INSPIRON-UBUNTU\print$ Printer Drivers step...@inspiron-ubuntu:~$ -- Nautilus fails to browse any share on network to which Iomega Home Network Hard Drive (MDHD500-N, firmware K108.W15) is attached. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/354243 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
