This is a more complete discription of my problem which I do not believe to be a configuration problem.
I have an Ubuntu 12.04 Server with Samba set up. I have an Ubuntu 12.10 Desktop, an Ubuntu 12.10 Laptop and a Windows 8 Surface Tablet. A) The Laptop or Desktop try to copy a file of any size and type to the server via samba -> grey window (freeze) which recovers after a few seconds yet reports "timeout". A file is created at the destination (size= 0 bytes). The Copy window progress bar never moves beyond 0 bytes. This is easily reproducible. B) The Windows 8 PC can copy files to the Samba Share on my Ubuntu 12.04 Server without problems. C) The Ubuntu 12.10 PCs can copy files to each other without problems D) The Ubuntu 12.10 PC can copy files to the Surface Tablet without problems. This sounds like a bug to me as copying used to work before I upgraded and I certainly did not make any omnious changes to both my Ubuntu 12.10 PCs. I gather that it is not a problem with my server as my Tablet can copy files to that system with no problems. Accessing files on the remote share is not a problem with ubuntu 12.10 by the way. I will try to update my Server to 12.10 and report back if that helped. -- 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/1082699 Title: cannot copy to samba share To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1082699/+subscriptions -- 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
