I actually managed to access the 'User home folder' in 64bit 7 ultimate, using both Ubunutu 10.10 and 11.04 in x32.
The trick is to go there via nautilus/file/connectToServer/windosShare. Add then the IP of win7 machine to field Server. Add win7user(which is set up on 7machine) to field User. Add win7user password to password. DO NOT FILL FIELD FOLDER. Push connect an thats it. i see folders like admin, c, print, public, users. But from there on it becomes strange. win7 machine grants only access to public and win7user's HOME folder. (win/user has admin prev.) So you won't be able to access any drives, print, and further. Typycally these inaccessible folders do have a $ sign at the end of their name. Seems to me it behaves like some strange home-folder-clusterserver... Configuration of my 64bit win7ultimate Machine Only 1 User with admin rights windows firewall, default settings 7x64 sp1 installed Access via nautilus/Network is NOT - repeat - NOT possible. feedback n questions welcome. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/731976 Title: SAMBA - Can't access Windows 7 computer via SAMBA -- 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
