For what it is worth, write access to my IOmega NAS using WinXP in a virtual machine environment on my Linux box works just fine. See attached screen shot which shows the result of having just "dragged & dropped" a file called bookmarks.html into the NAS window.
This definitely seems to point to a Samba regression of some kind as Thierry Carrez has suggested. I mean when WinXP works with an embedded linux Samba in the NAS but Ubuntu Intrepid doesn't, something "just ain't right". :-) Richard Wooding, your SSH port forwarding idea might work better than my DMZ one since I can't figure out how to get around the private address range (192.168.0.xxx) for the NAS when it is exposed to the internet. Maybe some kind of virtual server and port forwarding arrangement in my router would work? I'm getting out of my networking depth here... ** Attachment added: "Screenshot.png" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20473139/Screenshot.png -- gvfsd-smb crashed with SIGSEGV in strlen() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/264943 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
