[Bug 282298] Re: Intrepid Beta: No Access to NAS samba share any more.

[oombas]

Very glad to have found this thread.
Just upgraded from 8.04 to 8.10 the other day, for the sake of creating a bootable USB stick.
My NAS, a Buffalo Terastation is there, no filenames.
I then mounted my drive with the earlier mentioned method and found the last character in the filenames missing.

bas at bas-desktop:~$ gvfs-mount smb://hd-htgl947/terastation
bas at bas-desktop:~$ smbclient -N //192.168.1.37/Terastation
Domain=[MYNAS] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.8a-ja-1.1]

(11se should be 11sep, etc.)

What I could do however, was using OpenOffice.org and edit and save 'recent documents' on my NAS, without problems.
Recompiled my VMware 6.5 and in my Windows VM's, everything works fine, including my networkdrive.
Could not open my RedHat 7.3 VM because of a 'serious error because of  a  retrieved NFS file handle'.
Will look afterwards into this.
So I decided to just wait for the Samba bugfix.
A bit sad to say that creating the 8.10 bootable USB stick failed, creating looked good and the logo appears, but it won't boot.
In this case, upgrading feels a bit like downgrading.
Thanks for all the useful hints.
