http://www.linuxquestions.org – Hi all, This is the first time I have run into issues mounting windows shares but I really can't figure this out. Can someone put me out of my windows misery please. First off, last week I rebuilt my work PC fromWIN7 32bit to WIN7 64bit since then I can no longer mount the window share on my ubuntu server: Ubuntu 10.04 (32 bit) - 2.6.32-22-generic #36-Ubuntu SMP I recreated my windows share called "Linux" and used the properties, advanced sharing and added everyone, full access and my domain account full access. If I browse (HowTos)

Windows Share Permission Error 43 weeks 2 days ago

I am currently running a Windows Server 8 Beta Build 8250 hyper-v machine, lets call it Server, with a Win7 virtual machine. All the machines are on the same domain. I am trying to access shares on Server from Win7 using a domain account. The domain account has proper NTFS and Share permissions and can access all other shares on the network.

Today I lost the ability to see my Windows Server 2008 R2 shares from any of my 3 Windows XP machines in my small office. The 5 Win7 machines haven't been affected (they are still able to browse/access the 2008 server), but none of my WinXP machines can access the 2008R2 server anymore. Yesterday (and for the previous year) everything was working fine. I do not have a domain setup.

I have a few conditions to meet with a new samba setup.I want to migrate a windows based share to a linux samba share. However this time the share is in the regular corporate LAN and I do not have the rights to add this samba server to the corporate windows domain.

Show samba shares on machines 24 weeks 6 days ago

In my setup, I have a FreeBSD (soon to be Debian) server hosting multiple working samba shares. I access these shares from my Windows 7 laptop and Ubuntu 12.10 desktop, all on the same LAN segment. I can mount and use the shares without any trouble. However, my server machine does not show up under "Network Devices" under Win7 or Ubuntu.

I have a RAID10 array mounted on Ubuntu Server 12.04.

From Ubuntu 11.04 to 12.04 i've been able to mount my nas shares by first making directories in the /media folder, then sudo gedit /etc/fstab to include the following line for each share I want to auto-mount;

//servername/sharename /media/windowsshare cifs guest,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8,codepage=unicode,unicode 0 0

Now, however, I upgraded to 12.10, and suddenly I'm not able to mount the sha

We have an workstation using Win7 on a LAN with a domain. On that workstation we set up some network shares.

Can we find who used (user name and/or computer name) and when the shares?

Note that we know about Computer Management > System Tools > Shared Folders > Open Files.

I have samba installed and I can connect from my Win7 pc to my linux box. I can read/write from Windows to a share on my mythbuntu box. But for some reason, my linux box can't connect or see my Win7 pc. From a linux terminal I can ping to Win7 box successfully.

I have an IP cam that can access WinXP shares but not Win 7 shares. That's why I'm running the WinXP Mode VM. (I've tried a million tweaks to Win7's sharing settings, but the IP cam just won't connect) I'd like to have it running (shares accessible), but hidden somewhere in the tray, or maybe running as a service.

Any idea how I can do that?
