This problem was studies by cebesius and he found that the samba server version in dns-323 does not support the new authentication protocol used by ubuntu 8.10 but expects the weaker lanman. (see http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=6238553&postcount=5)
The fix is to add this line to /etc/samba/smb.conf below the [global] section: client lanman auth = yes This worked for my ch3snas as well which is very similar to the dns-323. -- Ubuntu 8.1 cannot connect windows share https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/301794 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
