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.
So I've been running an ubuntu server for about 6 months now (noob) and I set up a samba share which I used with windows 7 PC's. Once it was set up everything worked fine.
Now I have 2 windows 8 PC's and neither of them have my ubuntu server samba share showing up with network discovery. If I use the IP or hostname (\\ubunutu) the shares show up and work properly.
I have succesfully added my Freebsd 9 to a Windows server 2008 R2 AD Domain.
Using samba 3.6.
The problem is that i want to be able to connect to the shares when the AD server is down.
Because the backup of the AD server is placed onto the BSD 9 system, so when booting the windows server CD repair i cannot connect to the share because of
session setup failed: NT_STATUS_NO_LOGON_SERVERS,
How to
I think I configured my Samba fine, but I cant access the share from a Windows machine. The network is set as bridged in VB configuration and I can ping the Windows machine from CentOS. Also, I can ping it back from the Windows machine.
I need help configuring the Samba server so I can connect from a Windows machine to my Fedora. I followed several tutorials because and non of them work for me. Here are two of them:
tutorial 1
tutorial 2
tutorial 3 (samba and selinux)
Here is the fpaste of my Samba configuration file.
When accessing my machine by IP Windows machines see the shared folders allusers and Share.

Salvete! I have a machine running CentOS 6.2.
I have recently upgraded a server running 8.04 to 12.04. I achieved this by installing 12.04 'over the top' of 8.04 without a format of the partition. The server appears to work correctly except for an intermittent/sporadic problem with a Samba share.
Hi,
I am a beginner when it comes to Linux, and have recently put together a media server, holding all my movies, running ubuntu 12.04.
After following tutorials and forums i can successfully ping, by hostname and ip, my windows desktop box and my media server ubuntu box fine, and vice versa.
I have configured samba to set up a share called Movies on my media server.
