The network I am connecting FROM is 192.128.0. The network I am connecting TO is 10.0.0. Do I have this right in my routes?
I 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.

I have a simple home network that I am trying to connect Ubuntu 10.04 to. I have no server yet, although I will possibly be adding one in the near future.
I have no problem getting a Internet connection on for Ubuntu. I also can access the Ubuntu machine from my Windows 7 computer. The problem I'm having is being able to access any computer from Ubuntu.
When I go Places->Network, the only option is 'Windows Network'. Opening this, I get two options, 'MSHOME' and 'WORKGROUP' I attempt to open both, and get the same response: "Unable to mount location, Failed to retrieve share list from server."
How am I able to access the other computers from Ubuntu?
My laptop has Ubuntu 9.10. It can connect to shares on my XP and Vista computers without issue, but cannot connect to a share on my Windows 7 system. I'm using "Connect to Server" and have tried by both Computer name and IP address. When I click connect, it prompts me for User ID, workgroup and password, however when I enter them, the same prompt comes back a few seconds later and is blank. I don't receive any errors, it just won't connect.My XP and Vista systems can connect to the Windows 7 share, just not the Ubuntu system
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have Ubuntu 9.10 setup on a test box. I am able to connect to my Win XP box shares but I cannot connect to my Win 7 (64 bit) box I get the usual 'Unable to mount location'. I can get to the Win 7 share from my other Win box so it is a valid share. I also cannot connect via the Remote desktop viewer. I am afraid that if I cannot get this going my Ubuntu experiment i over before it started.

I have an Ubuntu latest box that runs as a server for my xampp. And then an old windows laptop to connect with, this is for web development purposes. When I boot up windows I try and access the local ip of the server = it works. But after awhile.. maybe a few mins or an hour windows cannot connect anymore of Ubuntu, I always get "Internet explorer cannot display the webpage" error. I tried ping and it would not work, I'm quite sure the IP did not change at all. I reboot and try again, it works. I reboot again to test, it doesn't work.
I don't get it, =/ Ubuntu doesn't have any form of firewall, just the default settings. Both could use the internet but oftentimes fail for local networking...
I have a dual booted Windows XP and Ubuntu 9.10 box and have an unusual problem in that after connecting to the internet on Windows I cannot connect using Ubuntu. I don't believe it is actually a problem with configuring my Ubuntu connections because when I get up in the morning Ubuntu connects without any problem - this problem only exists (and persists for at least several hours) if I try to connect immediately after connecting on Windows. I don't know how long the problem lasts because I usually get so ***ed off I just go to bed and then in the morning I can connect. As I have recently been forced to change my ISP due to moving house, is it possibly a problem with my provider's service and not a Ubuntu problem at? I have a second Ubuntu 9.10 box which I have to manually connect [URL] which does connect even when the dual booted one won't.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI may be missing something very easy here, but I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit (I have also tried 10.04 32 bit) and I cannot connect to my windows machines. I can't connect by going to the network window, or by connect to server via ip. Basically, I can see the windows machines but then I double click it, and it asks for the credentials. I'm the admin of all of the machines, and I only have one login to my windows machine, which is my name First Last. I am entering this, and my password (which I'm sure is correct) and click "Connect". It thinks for maybe a half second, then presents me a blank credentials box, wanting me to start over.

I'm using an Acer AspireRevo 1600, wired connection.

I need to reinstall the samba directory, mainly to get the default smb.conf. It appears I have to remove smbclient, which takes ubuntu-desktop with it (which I now know is mostly ok). Hopefully reinstalling those will then replace /etc/samba. There's enough troubleshooting samba threads out there for the rest. I'll flag this solved when I'm done.
I am working on setting up BackupPC on Maverick , for my network. I am unable to view my WinXP machine's shares if I type "sudo smbclient -L //JonDoe/" . However it works if I use the XP machine's IP "sudo smbclient -L //192.168.1.100/". Viewing the workgroup (with the proper name) in Nautilus only shows the Ubuntu machine. I ended up using multiple how-tos which had me install the following packages : Samba, smbfs, system-config-samba.
With all that nothing worked so I decided to uninstall the above with "remove completely" in synaptic, expecting everything to be completely gone. But /etc/samba with smb.conf still existed so I deleted it. OOPS!!! . Installing Samba after the uninstall did not create a new /etc/samba/ directory. Reinstalling smbclient in synaptic didn't create it either. Uninstalling smbclient with pull BackupPC with it. Sweet! I do have a firewall package installed which allows outgoing but blocks inbound traffic from outside my LAN. I will disable it when I get home.
I have just upgraded from Windows XP to Windows 7 and I just couldn't figure out how to connect to a shared folder in Ubuntu. It was pretty easy to do in Windows XP.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIve just installed ubuntu on a small nettop type pc. It can connect to the internet but I want a direct network connection thru gigabit LAN using a crossover (apparently a straight cable would have been sufficient). Anyway, I have no idea where to begin. The network connection manager in Ubuntu shows Autoeth1 which is right and, if I manually set the IPv4 I can get the PCs to somehow see each other and the 7 pc to give a 'network access only' but that's it.

I wanted to test 10.04 and downloaded Wubi to do so. Normal setup, it automatically picked the 64-bit version. After booting into Wubi, installing my ATI drivers and restarting it did no longer connect to my ethernet. A few reboots didn't help so I went back to Windows for troubleshooting.
However now Windows doesn't connect to the ethernet either. It's plain dead, Windows doesn't find any connections and the modem doesn't light the Ethernet cable LED. The modem itself works fine with wireless devices. I have now tried everything including uninstalling Ubuntu, system restore, driver rollback, driver update, BIOS default settings, a different cable, a different modem etc.
This is a 64-bit specific issue because I tested the 32-bit version of Wubi 10.04 a few months ago without problems.

After running updates earlier today, none of my Ubuntu-based computers can connect to any Windows shares in Nautilus.Samba is running and working fine; I can access the shares via web browser using smb://hostname, so I know it's not an issue with Samba not working.Also, the two Windows-based computers can see each others' shares, including printers.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have shared my cpl-300 from my windows 7 machine to my network, so that may print from my linux laptop to it.
Now whenever I go to system -> Administration -> Printing and try and browse for my printer it asks for a username and password any username or password I enter that is on the windows 7 machine gets rejected.
So I tested to see what would happen if you used smbclient to view the shares available from the windows 7 machine, unfortunately it results in another permission error. The funny thing is I can mount a share using "mount -t cifs".
I have a machine with Windows 7 Ultimate with several shared folders. Then I have VMWare with Ubuntu 10.10 as guest running. Samba runs in Ubuntu and in Windows, I can see the shared folders of the Ubuntu guest (read and write) as well.

After this, I wanted to mount the folders permanently with fixed entries in the /etc/fstab. This failed and now I can't see the folders of the Windows host in the Ubuntu guest..

Excuse the length but this issue will take a little explaining. I need to connect my fedora11 box to a windows XP (sp3) laptop. Both are on a lan, with the fedora box at 192.168.0.100 and the laptop at 192.168.0.102. The laptop has openssh server by way of cygwin. Both machines have account jimm with the same password. I can ssh (putty) from the laptop to fedora but can't go the other way. When I ssh from fedora to windows I get a login and password request which results in "Permission denied, please try again." . I know the password is correct as I login to the laptop with it. I have also tried using the windows rdp by turning remote access on in windows and then using any of a variety of desktop viewers to connect. This always results in a version of "Autoselected keyboard map en-us ERROR: 192.168.0.102: unable to connect ". I have turned off firewalls in both machines for these tests and made sure that the local router is completely open to lan traffic. I've checked the forums and not gotten any ideas on how to fix this. I seem to remember (from way back when) that there was an issue connecting when windows switched from plain text passwords to encrypted. The ssh password rejection is what got me thinking about this. By the way, I forgot to mention that I can mount a samba share of the windows drive on the fedora box.

I have a private server which I stream media from, but since I've installed VMware running Windows 7 and set up Windows to used a bridged connection, so I can access the network drives in Windows. Now that I have done that, I cannot connect to my home server unless I have VMware running.
I only want windows running when I need it, but I need access to my server at all times.
