Ubuntu Networking :: Can't Access Shared Files From Windows Xp?
Apr 8, 2010When I first start up my 2 computers once the network is established if I try to acces the Ubuntu shared folders from the Win XP machine I get this error:"\localhost not accessible. You might not have permission to usethis network resource.t the administrator of this server to findout if you have access permissions.You were not connected because aduplicate name exits on the network. Go to System in Control Panel tochange the computer name and try again."If I first access the Windows shared files and then go back to the Win machine I get the password prompt and all is well

Jun 19, 2011I have been learning about P2P networks and have been experimenting with all kinds of operating systems. I figured out how to share and access Windows shared files on other Windows computers.
Now I'm trying to access Windows shared folders from Linux operating systems.
Here's the deal. I created a shared folder on Windows 2000 Professional. I want to open it from Kubuntu 10.04.
I am not running Virtualbox. These are separate operating systems on separate computers.

May 22, 2010I find it very strange that you can just insert Ubuntu installation CD in any PC, and have unlimited access to all users' My Documents folders on that computer. It doesn't even ask for password, nothing. I can take Ubuntu CD with me and copy data from all PCs in the company where I work.

Ubuntu :: Cant Access Windows Shared Network?
Jan 20, 2010When i first installed ubuntu on my laptop i could access the shared folders i had put on the network with windows through ubuntu, read and write files, copy and paste them etc. I tried recently going to Places>Network and i get this error: failed to retrieve share list from server
It never used to do this, in fact when i went to places the network was not called "network", it was my own title. i can connect to the server with the ip address, but that only lets me take files from the windows network, and not the other way around. I really have two issues
1. cannot place files on the network from my ubuntu laptop
2. cannot connect to shared folder network from places like i could before

Nov 25, 2008I have a OpenSUSE 11 machine set up as a domain controller. I have set my printer up to be shared to Windows machines logging into the domain. I was able to install the printer to my Windows machines. When you go to the printers folder in Windows, it shows the printer but says "access denied" instead of the usual "ready". If I print to the shared printer the job will go through. I am thinking it is an authentication issue because if I log into Windows machine as "root" and let it build a profile, the printer doesn't show the "access denied" message. How do I allow other users to have access to the printer?
View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Installation :: Installing A Triple-boot System W/ Shared Documents
Apr 27, 2010I currently use my PC for work, music [I'm a DJ by profession], and gaming. It's got good specs and I've recently gotten a 500GB hard drive for it. I've installed Ubuntu 10.04 [using the 9.10 CD and running update-manager --devel-release]. However, in my infinite foresight, I installed Ubuntu to take up the whole drive, /home and all. I've only used about 80GB of space in /home so backing it up to start off a triple boot shouldn't be a problem.
Currently, my partitioning is /dev/sda1 at 494GB [ext3, mounted as /], /dev/sda2 is a 6.2GB extended partition, and /dev/sda5 is a 6.2GB swap partition. Basically, I need to do the following things, but don't know the least hacky way around it.
1) Repartition to make the Ubuntu's root filesystem take up ~40GB of space
2) Probably have the swap partition immediately after / (is the other extended partition even necessary?)
3) Install Windows 7 to use for gaming in a 60GB partition
4) Windows XP to use for music production in another 60GB part
5) Have the rest of the space on the hard drive formatted as NTFS & used for documents for Windows 7 (as D:), Windows XP (also as D:), and Ubuntu (used as /home/saxon).
Any pointers? I've searched around but I couldn't find anyone else with my exact problem - most people have Windows installed first and only want a dual boot. I'm fairly comfortable with the shell so I'm not too bothered about using Term either. Sorry if I've worded this awfully or seemed like a bit of an idiot
Ubuntu Networking :: Connecting 10.04 With Windows 7 - Transfer Files Like Music - Documents - Pictures
Jun 20, 2010I want to connect a laptop running ubuntu 10.04 to a laptop running windows 7 via direct connection in order to transfer files like music, documents, pictures, etc. I have an ethernet cable that I thought I would need in order to do it. Is that even possible?? If so, how would I go about doing that?
Now, I have tried to share the files wirelessly but for some reason when I pick up the workgroup on the ubuntu laptop and enter the password in order to connect to the windows laptop it says my password is wrong, when I know for a fact that it is not. I know I can transfer files with a flash drive and what not but I want to try to get this working.
CentOS 5 Networking :: Cannot Browse Windows Network Or Connect To Windows Shared Folders
Dec 22, 2010I have a fresh install of CentOS 5.5. I am trying to browse to the Windows machines on my network (Places > Network Servers > Windows Network), but I get a blank window. I am able to ping the Windows machines using their IP address, but not by their name. What do I need to do to be able to see the Windows machines and also to connect to shared folders on these machines? So far I have tried starting SMB (via System > Administration > Server Settings > Services). I have also tried changing my smb workgroup to "WORKGROUP" (the default was mygroup which did not match my Windows machines.

Feb 24, 2011I always find myself stuck when it comes to sharing folders across networks.
I just installed ubuntu on a pc, with 2 other pc's in my network - one runs Windows XP and the other Windows 7.
When I go to Network -> Windows Network -> WORKGROUP I can see both Windows computers. But when I try to open either one of them, it asks me for a username and password. Now, neither of the Windows machines have passwords (they just login automatically).
(I haven't used Ubuntu since the earlier versions and remember having to go through samba and set up config files, etc.).
Ubuntu Networking :: Can't Access Shared Folder On XP Machine
Mar 10, 2011Been using Ubuntu now almost 1 year and love it but I'm still mostly lost so I need someone to explain in great detail how to be able to access the My Documents folder on my LAN XP machine. I've been up and working fine for 6 or 8 months but all of the sudden (maybe it was an update package?) I get the following error message, after a long delay, when trying to access the shared folder:

Ubuntu Networking :: 11.04 - No Way To Access SMB Shared Drives Using Nautilus
May 7, 2011After upgrade to 11.04 I have no way to access SMB shared drives using Nautilus. When I click on "Network / Windows Network" I have the message: "unable to mount location failed to retrieve list from server". Couple of remarks: This is a regression It's not only a "Windows" network - this label has to be renamed. The message does not help the average user at all - this is a geeky way of communicating with the end-user.
View 9 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Networking :: No Access To Win7 Shared Folder?
Sep 1, 2011I've set up a laptop with Ubuntu 10.04 32bit and shared specific folders on my Win7 PC. Everything should work okay as they both can see each other, but when I try on Ubuntu to access the Win7 shared folder it asks me for username and password. In Win7 I'm always logged in as Administrator with no password set and Ubuntu won't let me connect to it leaving the password blank. It just keeps asking for my username/password over and over again without any kind of error message. It doesn't come up with 'access denied' or anything, it just keeps refreshing the username/password login/connect gui so I can't say which side of the fence the problem is occurring on though I suspect it's on the Ubuntu side.

Jan 16, 2009Installed Fedora 10 on my Downloader (just a name for the pc as its mainly used for torrent downloading) computer. But I cant access the fedora shared folder from my windows XP. Accessing XP shared folders from F10 is fine. I have another 2 computer where I have installed Ubuntu 8.10. I have no problem accessing either of the Ubuntu system from my XP computer. The F10 computer comes up fine on my Workgroup list of xp. I double click to go into the F10, a login window pops up and askes for username and password. I used the normal username and root / password to log in. But it keeps popping up for password again and again. BTW, Recently I Installed Win7 Beta on the Windows computer and Surprisingly I can access the Fedora 10 computer shared folder just fine from Win7. But I need to get it working under windows XP.
Here is my smb.conf file
Code:

# workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name, e.g.: MIDEARTH

Fedora Networking :: Cannot Access The Shared Folder
Apr 23, 2010I've installed Fedora 12 on my laptop and when I share any folder and try to access it over the network using smb://<ip-address/<folder> it says "file or folder smb://..... does not exist"
Now if I simply try to access - smb://<ip-address> on the file browser it shows me shared folders but when I double click I get the same error.
I've SELinux disable, Firewall disable but I'm still not able to access these folders.
I did the exactly same samba configuration on openSUSE and I'm able to access the folder but not with Fedora 12.
Fedora Networking :: Can't Access Shared External HDD?
May 29, 2010I have a Belkin router with an external HDD attached to it through the USB port on the router. Every time I try to access it, I get a popup asking for the username, domain name, and password. I have no idea how to gain access to it in Fedora. I can access it fine with windows XP and 7, but get the login screen when using Fedora. I can access my shared files on the xp machine just fine with fedora, but not the external on the router. Do I need to do some extra configuring with samba to get it to work? What is my domain password anyway, I don't ever remember setting one up? Is there a way to find out and just plug it in when the login screen pops up? I am clueless, I tried searching, but everything I come up with involves vpn, which I am not using. If it helps, I sometimes get a similar login screen in windows as well, usually when I first log into either my xp machine or my 7. Its not every time I log in, but it does occasionally happen, I have no idea why. Networking is just not my forte. What I do to get around it is go into a file browser and type in the network location (\192.168.1.1FreeAgent Drive). Once I have done this I can can access the drive by clicking on the map I created in 'My Computer'.
