Domain shares from windows 7

Hai,
I have a hibrid domain with Win2003 std server and 2 Samba4 servers.
Under the hood i have a clustered filesystem so any server can reach the shares and a failover IP/dns name eg: 172.20.11.11/domainha
My main problem is: all of my windows XP clients works well, they can reach their shares when i point to \\domainha\share but my windows 7 machines couldn't. I have to use \\domain01\share or \\domain02\share form to open any share.
Windows 7 machines could list the available shares from \\doaminha but couldn't open any of them, it give me this error message:
"\\domainha\share isnt available. You might not have the rights ...bla bla .. usual stuffs
The parameter isnt correct"
I know Windows 7 uses a different authentication method but i dont know how to modify my servers or windows7 to succesfully open the failover shares.
Thanks, Robert

Hello
XP and 2003 have similar
authentication method (like 2008 and 7). I had this issue before. try this way:
on windows 7:
gpedit.msc > windows settings > security settings > local policies > security options >
network security: LAN manager authentication level: change it to one option that has 'negotiated' at the end.
That will work! if it didn't please let me know.

Random error accessing CIFS shares from Windows

I am setting up some CIFS shares to be used from Windows clients and in the process I had some random problems accessing the shares.
In hope of finding the answer I checked the CIFS Service and the Active Directory Service, and while watching the screen for Active Directory Service I saw that the "Selected Domain Controller" changed from one to another. I now stayed within this screen and noticed that the "Selected Domain Controller" continued to change and then I found the problem, because an unknown Domain Controller appeared. The IP was 216.150.17.8
I found that when ever this Domain Controller was the selected one, all access to CIFS shares from Windows clients failed! This is correct, because the 216.150.17.8 of course is unaware of all users in Our Domain
So the Questions are:
- what is happening?
- and how to solve this?
- why is a Domain Controller 216.150.17.8 sometimes the Selected Controller?
- where does this 216.150.17.8 come from?
Have You seen anything like this?

I now have found out why the DC changes - it is because the CIFS service is restarting ;-(
This is a log snip

It seems to happen when I access the share and thereby force a uservalidation
Any ideas?

How to access ZFS share from Windows 7?

I am new to UNIX and am having a hard time to get a ZFS share to access from windows 7 on my home network.
I was able to access both WHS 2011 and QNAP 459 share on SE 11 by using the file manager - Server - windows & then just using the IP address, username, password. That was easy or at least similar to what I was used with windows 7.
However, I have yet to be able to access a ZFS pool containing a share that I can access from another windows 7 machine at home.
Apparently, I can mount the share from windows but the login name/password do not get accepted when I add a network connection in windows. Windows does seem to find the path \\solaris\tank_share1 and even mounts it, but the login for SE 11 does not work for some reason.
I changes the workgroup name to WORKGROUP in windows but that did not change anything. I tried to edit the pam.conf file by changing the ownership from root to myself so I could use gedit since it has been 15 years since I last used vi. However, that corrupted the setup as I got "system error" message on reboot that never got out of that infinite loop.
I am basically using the instruction through the following link:
http://blogs.oracle.com/observatory/entry/accessing_opensolaris_shares_from_windows
Any help to get this problem resolved is much appreciated
Thanks,
Kurt

The documented procedure of having to edit the pam_conf file seems to work followed by resetting one's password seems to work after all. I believe, by taking away ownership from root to "admin user" screwed things up. I had to relearn how to use vi but that didn't take very long.
Got about 50 MB/s speed coping from Windows SSD to SE11 SSD via very small (5 GB) RAIDZ array in VMWare (running on top of WIN 7-64). I have to try native SE11 SSD next as the VMWare setup is just for practice.
Q: Is there a way to launch gedit from the terminal window in root mode so I wouldn't have to use vi?

Canon MF4320d, share from Windows XP Prof

Is it possible to get work a printer share from Windows XP professional with Canon i-SENSYS MD4320d (USB-printer)?
I've installed the printer to my Windows computer. All of my computers are connected to a AirPort which share's my internet. Of course windows laptop finds the printer very easy, but Mac OS X does not..
Sharing a windows USB-printer is a bit tricky with Mac OS, is there a way to get share work with this printer?

Hi there,
Looking at the Canon UK web site, it shows this model uses the Canon UFR2 driver on OS X. This driver does not work at all on OS X when it is connected to a Windows share.
You mentioned that you had Airport. You may find the MF works better when connected to the USB port of the AE. Although I have experienced problems previously with a mates MF4150 that was connected via an Airport Extreme. It used an earlier version of the UFR2 driver and it never recognised the MF when connected to the AE's USB port.
If you can connect the printer to your Mac and then share it to the PC, then this may be a better solution for you.

Cannot access CIFS shares from Windows 2008R2 on NSS3000

Hi,
I am trying to upgrade our 2008 domain to 2008R2 but with that last version we cannot access to cifs shares on the NSS3000. Access from all other clients are OK. It was 100% OK under 2008...
Whether I use the IP or the FQDN, I got an error from Windows 2008R2. From IP, I got "No process is on the other end of pipe." and from network Gui, I got "Windows cannot access \\nas0026CB647BC6. Check the spelling of the name...blabla. Details : Error Code : 0x80070035, The network path was not found".
On the NAS, I got this errors in the cifs logs :

It is likely to be an incompatibility between Windows 2008R2 smbv2 and the NSS3000 smbd but I can't find any firmware update and I can't find the process to allow in the registry.
I can ping it, I can connect on the web interface, I can connect on FTP but no CIFS at all.
Firmware version running is 1.20.1. Hardware rev : V03.
Any idea?

Hi SpaceBass, have you looked into sharepoints or into Netinfo manager. I have been playing around with sharepoints and it does let me enter non local users into the sharing prefs- albeit manually. Only thing is , depending on the number of macs you have, it could be a long and tedious job entering it all by hand. Netinfo may have an easier way, I'll do some more digging and post back.
Cheers.

Cannot browse to Server 2012 shares from Windows 8.x

I can't conntect or browse to any shares on a 2012 server from a Windows 8.1 client. I can connect from Windows 7 to server 2012. And from Windows 8.1 I can connect to 2008 servers. Is this a new security feature/setting on Windows 8.1 or on Server 2012?

Hi Spetroski,
Based on your description, I’m a little confused with your question. Please let me confirm something more.
Is it in a domain environment? Did you mean you type the share path in
Run, and then access share? If so, please check if use server’s IP address to access, will the same result?
If I misunderstood the connection way, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
Please confirm which following scenario is similar with current state of this issue.
When use Windows 8.1, you can connect to server 2012. However, can’t browse and access all shares that host in server 2012.
Can’t even connect to server 2012, when use Windows 8.1.
If none, please feel free to let me know some details.
Meanwhile, please let me know if you can find some error message when this issue occurred. If can find, please
post the complete error messages here.
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Justin Gu

No access on podcast share from Windows clients

Hello together!
I have the following scenatio at home:
* 1 Server with Windows 2008 R2 with logged in user and iTunes running (everything is shared)
* 1 Laptop with Windows 7 x64 & iTunes
* 1 Desktop with Windows 7 x86 & iTunes
* 1 Macbook with Mac OS X Leopard & iTunes
With this constellation I want to have access to my iTunes library located on the server from all other computer. With the MacBook this funktions without any problem to access everything (podcasts too).
On both Windows computer the directory pocasts is invisible. I can find the podcast files in the main directory but they are grey and the the playback does not start.
Is here anyone who had already the same problem and perhaps solved it? Thank you in advance for your replies.
P.S. Generally I can play the files by changing the kind of media to movie.

Oleg,
I had the exact same problem here - we have two XSERVE machines here running OSX 10.5.7 server, and we're accessing a samba share on these servers from Windows XP SP3 clients.
When moving a file, I noticed a message in /var/log/samba/log.smbd :
[2009/06/15 12:45:30, 0, pid=50709] /SourceCache/samba/samba-187.8/samba/source/modules/vfsdarwin_acls.c:fsp_setacl(126)
darwinacl: failed to set ACL on <filename>: Invalid argument
!#acl 1
I tried to look this up on google, but had no success.
Searching the file /etc/smb.conf for "acl" showed the following line:
vfs objects = darwinacl,darwin_streams
(Un)commenting this line (inserting a ";" in front of the first character) and restarting s,b solved the problem here - I'm now able to move files without having the permissions set to 0000, and the error in log.smbd doesn't appear any more.

Can only connect to smb share from Windows as "nobody"

I'm trying to share some folders on my Mac using samba. When I connect from Windows, I do not get asked for a username and password, and I get connected as a guest user (nobody). What do I do to get connected as a real user? I've tried playing with /etc/smb.conf, but I'm not sure what to change.

when you enable smb in haring system preferences on your mac, did you check the box to enable smb on a specific account?
if you did, when you initiate smb from windows try entering
smb://[email protected]
instead of
smb://mac.ip.address

Can't connect to Macbook Pro running ML shares from Windows 7 Pro computers

On my Macbook Pro I can see all the network shares on the windows machines and connect to them. On my Windows 7 Pro computers I can see the Mac but when I try to connect to it asks for a username and pawword. No username/password combo works. On the windows machines I can ping the Macbook's ip but when I try pinging the Macbook's name it returns 127.0.0.1. None of the windows machines have entires in the hosts file other than the ones commented out which is the factory default.
When I ping machinename.local on the mac it returns the correct ip address so I'm pretty sure the Mac is working fine. I also went into the wins setting and put in the machinename and correct workgroup on the mac. The issue seems to be on the windows machines thinking the mac's dns name is localhost. Resetting the u-verse router didn't work. Turning file sharing off and on on the mac didn't solve the problem either.
I was at one point able to connect to the mac shares from my windows machines but it just stopped working several days ago for no apparent reason.

Try changing the encryption, also make sure the computer is fully updated. Windows Xp computers do not all have native WPA2 capability. Try disabling security and see if that works. If it does not, it may be an interfernce problem on one computer. Try changing the wireless channel to 3 or 9

Moving files on share from Windows results in permission loss

Here's the setup:
-- Leopard, with shared SMB folders; specific user and everyone have read/write permissions for the share
-- Windows machine is accessing the share via the specific user & password, connecting fine
When I access the share from the Windows machine, and move files between folders, the file loses all permissions (they are set to 0000) so it cannot be read by anyone at all. The only way of getting access to them again (from either machine) is to chmod them back to 0644.
Copying files is OK, as is creating files and moving a folder from Win -> Mac. It only affects moving files between folders on the Mac.
Can anyone else confirm this, or is it a setup issue here?

10.5.1 has not helped the situation. Any ideas???

Issues accessing domain share from domain controller

Hi,
About 2 weeks ago, 2 of my domain controllers at one of our facilities has lost access to a domain share. If I try to access the share from the dc's, it prompts for a username/password. Now if I go to my workstation at corp, the share works fine. I can't
seem to figure out where the problem is. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

You can use dcdiag and repadmin to check your DCs and your replication health status. That should let you see if something is wrong.

I can't see my Mac shares from Windows

I've read threads here saying people can't access windows shares from their mac using Leopard. Well, I'm having this problem too...AND I'm also have this problem the other way. From my XP machine, I CANNOT access or even see my Mac shares like I used to in Tiger. I've tried messing with all the settings on the Mac side, and nothing works! ARGH! So frustrated!
Before, I could access my mac shares from my XP machine by typing in my username and password, that's what I'm trying to do, but no matter what I do, I can't get my XP machine to see my mac shares over the network. Can someone help me out please? I'm almost to a point where I'm desperate!

Okay, I give up. I can see my XP PC in Finder sans firewall, with all of my Mac exposed, and cannot see my Mac from the XP PC at all, no matter what I do. I've spent hours on this today and after reading and trying everything, I realize there's no way to do it. There's no safe way too look into my PC, and no possible way too look into my Mac. I can't believe Apple made me believe that I could do a simple thing like network my PC and my Mac.
I'm so utterly disappointed--you want something to "just work", and there are 500 options and settings and nothing works. I want to love Apple so much, but after spending all night trying, I realize it just doesn't work. Too bad, I really wanted to use this Mac at work.

IOMeter hangs when running to a NFS share from Windows Storage Server 2012

Hello,
I am trying to measure performance of NFS share coming from Windows Storage Server 2012 using IOMeter also running on windows Server 2012. I can create the share on WSS2012. Windows 2012 client does see the share. IOmeter does see the share, and I can start
running. But fairly quick IOMeter gets an error, and stops. After that NFS share on the client is not visible to IOMeter anymore. This happen every time.
I have used IOMeter to SMB shares a lot with no problem..
Thanks in advance,
BJ

1) Can you use NFS share with NFS clients normally? I mean is it I/O Meter who has issues with streaming or do other apps have similar problems? Say normal copy to / from NFS share?
2) What error exactly is popped up? Do you happen to have a screenshot?

Accessing Mac File Share from Windows Server 2003

I currently have a windows domain that has a few Mac OS x leopard servers on it. I can map a drive to the Mac share using windows XP and Windows Vista, but I cannot map the drive in Windows Server 2003. I have enabled the Windows Sharing on the Mac server, and enabled the Mac File Sharing on the Windows server, but the windows server does not find the Mac server. I can ping the Mac server by FQDN and IP, but when I go to map a drive to it I get the error:
The mapped network drive could not be created because the following error has occurred: An unexpected network error occurred.
I have also checked the Local Security Policies, and did not find anything that would cause the issue. Any ideas anyone?

Hi,
This is the method I have used to share OS X and Vista files in the past:
