Network Servers access to samba and windows servers

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In a recent thread there were a few of us that were experiencing
problems accessing windows and samba servers via the Network Servers
item in the main menu under FC2.  

I believed this to be a problem with Nautilus since the same
configuration for samba worked fine under FC1.  There appeared to be
some improvement after modifying some of the samba configuration
options.  

The recent update to samba however appears to have changed the behavior
significantly and possibly improved the results.  When the network
servers item is selected the window now not only contains the Windows
Network icon but it also includes each of the servers on the network. 
Selecting the Windows Network item displays the same set of servers as
in the main window.

There still appears to be some issue with iptables and the Network
Servers item.  With iptables disabled it appears to work.  As soon as
iptables is enabled however even with 137,138,139, and 445.  

It is interesting that the new version of samba changed the results
significantly.
