(Get the code!)
In my situation, being or not in the same workgroup does not make a difference.
In any case here are some detailed descriptions of what happens. As I wrote in comment 8, I have a virtual machine running hardy-beta, which is in the same worgroup (or Domain) of all other network machines. This is a large network, with mostly windows clients, but also with several MacOsX and linux boxes. All linux boxes were joined to the ADS domain with the command: 'net ads join'. The relative smb.conf file is like this:
[global]
workgroup = LAB
realm = XXXLAB.IT
netbios name = %h
server string = %h (Samba %v, Ubuntu)
security = ADS
password server = dhcserv1.xxxlab.it
username map = /etc/samba/
restrict anonymous = 2
client NTLMv2 auth = Yes
client lanman auth = No
client plaintext auth = No
log file = /var/log/
os level = 0
preferred master = No
local master = No
domain master = No
idmap domains = LAB
idmap config LAB: default = yes
idmap config LAB: backend = rid
idmap config LAB: range = 100000-1000000
template shell = /bin/bash
winbind enum users = Yes
winbind enum groups = Yes
winbind use default domain = Yes
winbind offline logon = Yes
invalid users = root
Case 1 -------
Browsing from hardy-beta a machine running ubuntu-gutsy server.
In a terminal window:
renbag@vm-hardy:~$ smbclient -L gutsy-server
Password: (password inserted here)
Domain=[LAB] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.26a]
Sharename Type Comment
--------- ---- -------
IPC$ IPC IPC Service (gutsy-server (Samba 3.0.26a, Ubuntu))
share Disk gutsy-server_share
Domain=[LAB] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.26a]
Server Comment
--------- -------
gutsy-server gutsy-server (Samba 3.0.26a, Ubuntu)
Workgroup Master
--------- -------
LAB
In Nautilus:
Open Network --> Double-click on the 'LAB' icon (Domain) --> All machines are displayed;
Double-click on the 'gutsy-server' icon --> after a while, Nautilus returns '0 objects', without asking for a password;
Insert the full address (smb://
Case 2 -------
Browsing from hardy-beta a machine running Windows XP
In a terminal window:
renbag@vm-hardy:~$ smbclient -L XP-ACQ
Password: (password inserted here)
Domain=[LAB] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]
Sharename Type Comment
--------- ---- -------
IPC$ IPC Remote IPC
Data Disk
ADMIN$ Disk Remote Admin
C$ Disk Default share
Domain=[LAB] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]
Server Comment
--------- -------
Workgroup Master
--------- -------
In Nautilus:
Same behaviour as in case 1.
smb://XP-ACQ --> '0 objects';
smb://XP-ACQ/Data --> content displayed after password.
Case 3 -------
Browsing from hardy-beta a machine running Windows 2000
In a terminal window:
renbag@vm-hardy:~$ smbclient -L TF-2000
Password: (password inserted here)
Domain=[LAB] OS=[Windows 5.0] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]
Sharename Type Comment
--------- ---- -------
IPC$ IPC Remote IPC
ADMIN$ Disk Remote Admin
C$ Disk Default share
Data Disk
Domain=[LAB] OS=[Windows 5.0] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]
Server Comment
--------- -------
Workgroup Master
--------- -------
In Nautilus:
Open Network --> Double-click on the 'LAB' icon (Domain) --> All machines are displayed;
Double-click on the 'TF-2000' icon --> All the shared folders are displayed, without asking for a password;
Double-click on the 'Data' folder icon --> a password is requested and the content is displayed.
(This is the correct and the expected behaviour).
I want to stress again that in ubuntu-gutsy boxes, with exactly the same smb.conf configuration, I never observed Nautilus return '0 objects' as in case 1 and 2.
Such a behaviour in hardy will make a normal user think that browsing a samba network, in a situation similar to the one described here, does not work at all, and so I think that this bug should gain a higher priority.
Please let me know if there is other I can do to produce more informations.
