Public bug reported: In Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS, smbclient 4.3.11 cannot list shares from Mac OS X smb servers.
Windows machines can access these Mac shares, and smbclient can also get the list of shares from the Windows 7 and Windows 10 machines. The errors are "NTLMSSP packet check failed due to short signature (0 bytes)!", "NTLMSSP NTLM2 packet check failed due to invalid signature!" and finally "NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED" $ sudo smbclient -A ~/smb.creds -d 2 -L mac-os-x-host rlimit_max: increasing rlimit_max (1024) to minimum Windows limit (16384) WARNING: The "syslog" option is deprecated added interface wlp3s0 ip=192.168.81.72 bcast=192.168.81.255 netmask=255.255.255.0 NTLMSSP packet check failed due to short signature (0 bytes)! NTLMSSP NTLM2 packet check failed due to invalid signature! GENSEC SPNEGO: failed to verify mechListMIC: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED session setup failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED I then tried to upgrade smbclient to the version 4.4.5 from Ubuntu 16.10, but still get the same result. The upgrade was difficult due to many dependencies, but this seems to have worked to upgrade (after downloading all these packages from the 16.10 repository: sudo dpkg -i Downloads/libreadline7_7.0-0ubuntu2_amd64.deb sudo dpkg -i Downloads/samba-common_4.4.5+dfsg-2ubuntu5_all.deb sudo dpkg -i Downloads/python-talloc_2.1.7-1_amd64.deb sudo dpkg -i Downloads/libwbclient0_4.4.5+dfsg-2ubuntu5_amd64.deb sudo dpkg -i Downloads/libgnutls30_3.5.3-5ubuntu1_i386.deb sudo dpkg -i Downloads/libgnutls30_3.5.3-5ubuntu1_amd64.deb sudo dpkg -i Downloads/samba-libs_4.4.5+dfsg-2ubuntu5_amd64.deb sudo dpkg -i Downloads/smbclient_4.4.5+dfsg-2ubuntu5_amd64.deb smbclient -V Version 4.4.5-Ubuntu But the error messages are still exactly the same. ** Affects: samba (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: samba smbclient -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1711212 Title: smbclient fails to get shares from Mac OS X smb server To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1711212/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
