Public bug reported: sharing is working properly from My computer to the windows 7 computer generally, I transfer files from Nautilus without difficulty;
however when I try to smbclient -M to the windows 7 computer, that has winsent Innocenti LAN messenger, winpopup compatible, although no msg.exe – replacement for net send – in system32, so as far as I know windows 7 home premium is thus capable of receiving messages although not sending them, it initially connects then seems to ignore the control-D 'end of message' code, it's as though smbclient itself is not responding. There is no sign that the control-D action is at all recognized in smbclient. A control-C works, naturally without sending the message though. Before I installed Innocenti the smbclient -M command was refusing to connect/prompt for a message at all, so it looks as though the windows side of it is working at least basically. mark@mycomputer:~$ smbclient -U Mark -M WINDOWS-PC Enter Mark's password: Type your message, ending it with a Control-D Hi there! cli_message returned NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT as requested in the apport-bug preliminaries, the result of smbclient -L localhost mark@mycomputer:~$ smbclient -L localhost Enter mark's password: Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.5.8] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- print$ Disk Printer Drivers print Disk IPC$ IPC IPC Service (MyComputer server (Samba, Ubuntu)) MyPrinter Printer My Printer Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.5.8] Server Comment --------- ------- WINDOWS-PC MYCOMPUTER MyComputer server (Samba, Ubuntu) Workgroup Master --------- ------- WORKGROUP MYCOMPUTER the result of smbclient -U Mark -L WINDOWS-PC $ smbclient -U Mark -L WINDOWS-PC Enter Mark's password: Domain=[WINDOWS-PC] OS=[Windows 7 Home Premium 7600] Server=[Windows 7 Home Premium 6.1] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- PrinterName Printer PrinterName ADMIN$ Disk Remote Admin C$ Disk Default share D$ Disk Default share E$ Disk Default share IPC$ IPC Remote IPC print$ Disk Printer Drivers Users Disk Server Comment --------- ------- Workgroup Master --------- ------- Looking forward to hearing from someone :-) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.04 Package: smbclient 2:3.5.8~dfsg-1ubuntu2.3 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.38-13.54-generic 2.6.38.8 Uname: Linux 2.6.38-13-generic i686 NonfreeKernelModules: wl Architecture: i386 Date: Mon Jan 30 14:53:21 2012 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-Netbook 10.04 "Lucid Lynx" - Release i386 (20100429.4) ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=en_US:en LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SambaClientRegression: Yes SourcePackage: samba UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to natty on 2011-05-30 (245 days ago) ** Affects: samba (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 natty -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/923744 Title: smbclient messaging not responding to control-D To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/923744/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
