oh - sorry, you mentioned upgrading from 7.10 so I assumed you were running 8.04. Yes, for 8.10 and above the default samba client behavior matches upstream's, and doesn't allow insecure security=share connections by default.
You can change the behavior on the client side by setting 'client lanman auth = yes' on the client's /etc/samba/smb.conf, as mentioned earlier in the bug report. The only reason this bug is open is for gvfs to provide a better error message when trying to connect to such a server - the client will still refuse to connect to such servers by default, for security reasons. -- SMB error: Unable to mount location when server configured with security=share https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/209520 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
