Installation issues / Re: Windows 2003 files server media not displaying

« on: October 16, 2008, 10:05:40 pm »

I am going to be housesitting for the next couple of days i will look more into this when i get back. It kind of sounds like the bug that Dave posted.  I will try to manually mount the shares to see if it works that way and see if it is a Ubuntu problem or a LinuxMCE problem.  I will also try colins idea and look deeper into the logs Thanks for your help i will let you know what i find out on monday.

Installation issues / Re: Windows 2003 files server media not displaying

I have set up a user on the file server to use for linuxmce.  This user has full permissions on both the share permissions tab and the security tab of each share.

The settings in the web admin are correct reconfigure is off, mac and ip address is set, username and password are set on both server and share.  all shares are marked online, password chekbox is marked and password script is there. i have tried both cifs and smbfs for filesystem.

Still it does not work.

BTW thanks for your help

For the server device in the admin console there are fields for username and password. In the share device which is beneath the server device there are fields for the share name, username and password. Make sure you have filled in both usernames and both passwords.

I have already tried this. I have tried all the user name and password options user name and password on server only, on both server and share, and  on share only. No luck with any of them.

If it still doesn't connect, 1) you can open Computer Management on the 2003 machine and navigate into the shares/sessions/files part - keep hitting refresh and you should see LMCE periodically connecting to the share.

It never showed up under the sessions on the file server.

2) turn on (if it isn't already) Security logging and go to the Security log viewer in Computer Management - you will see each attempt LMCE makes to connect to the share, whether it was successful or not, and if not a message as to why (eg bad password, expired account, etc)

every thing looks ok under the security logs. set up to log both success and and failures. It only shows successful logon/logoff and account logon  events # are 538, 540, 576, 680 These seem to repeat about every 3-5 seconds

This is the log for event id 680 this is the only one that has any error codes but it is a successful atempt so i am not sure it this is the problem. does error code 0x0 mean no errors?


           Logon attempt by:    MICROSOFT_AUTHENTICATION_PACKAGE_V1_0
           Logon account:    tXXXXX
           Source Workstation:    DCEROUTER
           Error Code:    0x0

is your server set up as stand alone or PDC?

It is a stand alone server in the linuxmce workgroup the xp box that works is also in the same workgroup.

Installation issues / Windows 2003 files server media not displaying

« on: October 14, 2008, 10:25:56 pm »

I have been trying for several days to view files on Linuxmce from my windows 2003 file server. I can view files from my XP shares but not the windows 2003 server shares.  The 2003 server and 2003 shares are detected but i canot access them. I have read through the threads and found people having problems with where the user name and password are stored in the admin console and i tried putting the password and user name for both then tried with it first on the file server and then just on the share. None of these worked. Does any one have any other suggestions or has anyone else ran across this problem?
