Can't connect to Windows shared file server
I'm trying to connect to our Windows shared file server. I can add the drive and see it, however, when I open the folders nothing is there. I called Apple Support who said that it was most likely a Windows-related issue and that I may need to install some Windows driver on the PC the file server is on to get this to work (he wasn't exactly sure what the fix was for this). Has anyone experienced anything similar? And if so, what's the fix???
Reinfire,
sorry to horn in on this question, but i am having a similar problem, but in reverse. I am trying to connect from Win 8.1 to my mavericks iMac but it will not connect. I am sure that it's related to SMB but the fix you have posted did nothing for it.
Any ideas?

SMB connection to Windows 2008R2 File Server Problem
Hello, I recently migrated a file server from Windows 2003 to Windows 2008R2. Since the migration, I can no longer use our Canon multi-function printer to scan documents to a network share on the new file server. The share has Everyone, System
and Authenticated Users set to Full control and the NTFS Security is setup for Everyone to modify. The connection from the Canon uses SMB using a domain account called jdoe.
I wondering if the problem is related the the LAN Manger authentication level settings. On the new file server and domain controllers it's set to Network security: LAN Manager authentication level is set to Send NTLMv2 response only\refuse LM &
NTLM. I have setup a network capture and hope somebody can help me out with determinging the problem.
Here is the detals of the ErrorIt does seem possible that the NTLMv2 authentication level might be affecting things. So I would give it a try. It's difficult to troubleshoot from the image, but I beleive there is a flag in the negotiate response that might give you a clue.
In either case, I think your question would be better served by our networking group, rather than the group that makes the tool. While we have some general protocol knowledge, we don't have the depth that the experts for each component would have.
If changing that setting doesn't work we can move this thread over to the right place.
Thanks,

Solaris nis client can't connect to Windows 2008 NIS Server across subnets
I have been using Microsoft Windows Server for NIS for years to centralize some accounts accessing Solaris and Linux OS.
Windows 2003 R2 Indentity Management for UNIX version of Server for NIS was last working version with Solairs.
After upgrading Domain to Windows 2008 all Solaris clients that are on different subnets fail to bind and connect to NIS servers now.
These servers already were setup using ypinit -c to manually add the NIS servers to connect to and prior to Windows 2008 this worked.
Now no Solaris nis clients on different subnets (no firewall between) can connect , but other Unix/Linux OS connect fine.
Is this a known issue and can we get a resolution as it seems only Solaris is affected?Hi Mid.Hudson-IT,
Before we begin ,we should ensure we have configured the printer server correctly .
Here is a link for reference of configuring the printer server .
Print server role: Configuring a print server
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc775791(v=ws.10).aspx
"I can map all of the printers on the network to the print server as-well as install the drivers correctly and I can resolve the IP and server name via DNS"
From this sentence ,I can`t figure out whether you have tried to ping the server both with the IP adress and name adress from the client ?
If we can ping the print server from the client,we can ensure the connection to the printer server is good .
Then we can try to install the printer driver directly to have a check .In the adress bar of Windows Explorer ,input "\\server name \the printer name"
If we cannot ping the print server ,we should troubleshoot the network issue firstly.
We also can check the event viewer for more information to troubleshoot this issue .
Best regards -
Can't connect to windows xp via server name
I have a network via Airport Express: imac 10.6.8 and PC windows XP sp3
Suddenly, without any reason, I got this issue:
I can't see the PC in on left share bar of Finder windows.
The only way to see the PC is : go > connect to server" > server address = smb://ip address BUT doesn't work if I use the computer name instead of the ip address( i.e ".smb://ip-address" works fine BUT "smb://computer-name" doens't work : message "connection failed")
Sometimes , very rerely, the XP computer name appears on the share bar but again, if I try to connect I get "connection failed " message.
It seems that iMac is not able to translate the logical computer name with the ip address.
Due to this issue , I have a trouble to use the shared windows printer because I have to install (on the mac) the windows printer using the ip address of the PC but if the IP address changes (I use DHCP and sometimes I have other computers on the network so the IP addres may change) I have to install again the printer with the new IP address.
Can someone help me?
Many thanks
GiuseppeSame problem - can't see the Apple TV on iTunes to be able to connect despite changing the TCP address etc

Windows can't connect to shares on Lion Server
I can't connect any windows machines (XP, Vist, or 7) to a Mac Pro running Lion Server. When attempting to connect, the windows user is prompted for credentials, and nothing entered in this box works even the server admin account info, once entering account credentials, it comes back with NAMEOFWINDOWSCOMPUTER\USER as if it's trying to sign into a domain, which we don't have domains.
I can't seem to find anything relevent when searching...There are a couple things you can try:
1.\ go to the apple server, sys prefs, sharing, selct file sharing and then select option. from there make sure the both check boxes are selected. then select done.
2.\ while you are there, in the shared folders section, selct the folder you would like to share (or add if its not) and make sure the user is in the users pane that you want to share the folder with.
3.\ restart your windows machine to make sure it forgets any passwords you may have put in.
4.\ if it still doesnt ask for a user account go to map network drive. and select the option to put another username and password in. for the user name user SERVERNAME\username - ensure the servername is in CAPITAL letter...
hope this helps... -

Mac Mini with OS X Tiger can't connect to windows XP shared directory
I recently upgrade my mac mini from OS X panther to tiger, after i upgrade, i can't connect to the shared directory on my PC. The internet is working correctly on the MAC. and before the upgrading, it works fine as well.
the symptom is I click on finder menu -> go -> connect to server, type in smb://x.x.x.x, click on connect, nothing happens, it does not even try to connect.
I have another Powerbook connecting to the same sub net and it can connect to my PC with no problem.
please help.
thank you very much.as for log out and back in, i tried restarting several times already, which didn't work yet.
Not the same thing actually... logging out and in will theoretically have all the Interfaces up & running already, whereas on Bootup, things may be trying to happen before other things are ready. -

Sending XML file from SAP to Windows Based file server with FTP function
Hi Gurus,
We are using SAP BW 3.0B version.
I need to convert data in ODS to XML format and send this XML file to remote server which is not a SAP application server, it is just a Window Based file server with FTP function..
By writing some ABAP code I have converted ODS data into XML format (which gets saved in my local system)
(Is that I need to put this file in Application Server to send it to the other servers? )
Now the thing is how I can send this file to that Windows Based file server.
plz suggest me.... what can be done......
Thanks in Advance
Madhusudhan
Edited by: Madhusudhan Raju on Dec 3, 2009 4:25 AMI dont think the above code support windows OS. Because I always execute this script via UNIX.
I think you can try this option, go to command prompt, goto the destination path where you have an XML file using cd....
ftp (destination servername), specify the username and password.
afterthat, use the command put and filename.
check whether the file had reached destination successfully or not.
For automation purpose, you can use the following script like
ftp: -s: test.txt (servername)
In test.txt,
UserName
Password
bin
cd /files
put file.xml
bye
Also, you can check in SM69, there will be some SAP external commands to automate the file transfer.
Thanks

OS X Leopard and Windows 2008 file server mount_smbfs
Hello
I am unable to use the command mount_smbfs to mount a share on a Windows 2008 file server in OS X 10.5.8 Leopard.
Here is what I am trying to do:
I have a Mac Mini running OS X 10.5.8 that is joined to a Windows 2003 Active Directory domain. I also have a stand alone Windows file server running Windows Server 2008.
I want to mount a share on the Windows 2008 file Server using the command line and not Finder. I do have a reason for wanting to do this which I wont bore you with.
On the Mac Mini, I log in with an Domain account that has permission to access the file shares on the Windows 2008 file server. In Terminal I do the following:
cd /Users/username
mkdir mountpoint
mount_smbfs //windows2008server/fileshare /Users/username/mountpoint
This command should mount the share "fileshare" hosted on server "windows2008server" in the folder "mountpoint" on the Mac Mini.
Here is the problem:
When I execute this command, I get:
Password: so I put in my password
then I get:
mount_smbfs: mount error: /Users/username/mountpoint: Broken pipe
Analysis of the problem:
I tried exactly the same commands to mount a share on a Windows 2003 file server. I am not asked for my password and the share mounts perfectly. I also tried the same command in OS X 10.6 to mount a share on a Windows 2008 file server, again, I was not asked for my password and the share mounted perfectly.
So the problem is only mounting Windows 2008 file shares using mount_smbfs in OS X 10.5.8. I am not sure quite what is going wrong here, as the Mac is joined to the domain, it is granted a Kerberos ticket so should not be asking for my password. Is this a known bug in OS X 10.5? Is there a fix/workaround for it?
Many thanks
Richard.Not sure what user the mount command defaults to. You may want to specify your user name in the mount command (you can also specify the password). Try using this:
mount_smbfs //username@windows2008server/fileshare /User/username/mountpoint
Of course substituting the Windows 2008 account name you are mounting with for the username.
Cheers,

Locked files using a Windows 2003 File Server with Mac 10.6 clients running CS5
We migrated 40 Mac users from OS X 10.5/CS3 to OS X 10.6/CS5 back in November. Our InDesign files are kept on a Windows 2003 file server.
We have had fairly constant complaints of InDesign and Photoshop files being reported as locked when users try to save their work back to the server. This did not occur as frequently with CS3.
Has anyone else had this issue?I'd suggest starting with iFelix's Sharing files between a Windows XP PC and a Mac running OS 10.4.x

Can't connect to the modem's server.
Hi guys, I have a major problem.
When ever I connect to the internet with my modem, it works. But, when I connect to internet with my router and modem, I can't connect. But I have solved my problem by resetting both, my wireless router and modem. Then after I reconfigure my wireless router all I need to do is to log into my modem's server. But I can't connect to the modem's server. I tired logging in with "admin" (being the password) but I still can't connect to it.
I am using: Verizon Broadband Network
Ultra RangePlus Wireless-N Broadband Router model: WRT160N
Westell modem model 6100
What is the problem? Has anyone experienced this problem before?
Message Edited by machg on 04-11-2009 07:10 PM
Solved!
Go to Solution.You will not be able to log into the modem as long as the router is plugged in
You must configure the modem first to bridge mode,then plug in the router and log into it
1.)unplug router and have only the modem in
go to 192.168.1.1 enter
that will take you into the verizon modem/ if you have reset the modem then your user is; admin
your password is ; password
once you lopg into that it will ask you to change the username/password
just type in ADMIN in all 3 blanks
now you are logged into the modem;;;;;;go to network at the top,then network connections on the left,broadband connection ,you will then put your protocol on bridge/routed bridge,
now go to wireless settings at the top and make sure wireless is turned on
you have the option to set up a security key on basic security settings
once your modem resets then plug in your router,you are now in bridge mode and the modems connection has moved to your router. you must restart modem and computer for everything to take effect....
also make sure and refresh your network list on your laptop
Hope this works -
Can I connect my application to mssql server
Can I connect my application to mssql server ?

Perhaps you could help the process along by being a little more specific. Is this an in-house application. Will it ever leave your local network? Or does it need to run over the internet? Regardless, the best option will likely be some type of REST web service that any client can use. -
How can SQLDeveloper connect to 10g DB on server but UI cannot
How can SQLDeveloper connect to 10g DB on server but the User Interface on local laptop cannot? What does the UI need that SQL Developer doesn't need?
What kind of UI are you talking about?
SQL Developer can use different type of connection method to connect to Oracle database.
For example, basic method of SQL Developer is JDBC Thin connection, in which case, SQL Developer will use JDBC driver that come with it, don't need any other thing installed.
SQL Developer also can use TNS method which will require Oracle client installed and TNS names configured.
