** Description changed:
Binary package hint: nautilus
I just updated Ubuntu 8.04.
Whenever I make a connection to the Window share, I got this error dialog:
Unable to mount location
Failed to mount Windows share
With and OK button.
ProblemType: Bug
Architecture: i386
Date: Sun Mar 30 21:19:59 2008
DistroRelease: Ubuntu 8.04
ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/nautilus
NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia
Package: nautilus 1:2.22.1-0ubuntu1
PackageArchitecture: i386
ProcEnviron:
PATH=/home/username/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
SHELL=/bin/bash
SourcePackage: nautilus
Uname: Linux 2.6.24-12-generic i686
+
+ TEST CASE:
+
+ 1) install the samba package
+ 2) configure 'security = share' and 'lanman auth = yes' in the [globals] section of /etc/samba/smb.conf
+ 3) add a user account to the server (e.g., with 'adduser user')
+ 4) set a password for this (insecure!) account with 'smbpasswd user'
+ 5) add a share which points to this user, e.g.:
+ [test]
+ comment = Test share
+ path = /home/user
+ writable = yes
+ guest ok = no
+ user = user
+ 6) with the hardy version of the libsmbclient package installed, test the following:
+ a) smbclient //localhost/user
+ should return
+ Server not using user level security and no password supplied.
+ Server requested LANMAN password (share-level security) but 'client use lanman auth' is disabled
+ b) nautilus smb://localhost/user
+ should prompt for a password, and, even when entered correctly, return
+ Couldn't display "smb://localhost/user"
+ Error: Failed to mount Windows share
+ Please select another viewer and try again.
+ 7) install the libsmbclient package from hardy-proposed
+ 8) both of the above two tests should now succeed
+ 9) set 'client lanman auth = no' in /etc/samba/smb.conf
+ 10) confirm that both of the above tests again fail when the config is overridden
