Re: Cannot access samba shares since update to samba 4.11.3-3

Just add the values discussed above to the section [global]:

client min protocol = CORE
server min protocol = CORE

The client min protocol can be omitted, imho.

I have those values also added in /etc/samba/smb.conf. Don't know if this is needed.

Re: Cannot access samba shares since update to samba 4.11.3-3

You were right, just adding 'server min protocol = CORE' was sufficient (and not required in /etc/samba/smb.conf)

Between rolling back, and juggling /etc/samba/smb.conf and smb.conf in tmp, I'd clean forgotten retrying the above.

Many thanks, as this at least works as a stop gap.

Re: Cannot access samba shares since update to samba 4.11.3-3

Glad you got it work again :-)

Here is my script. Adjust QEMUCMD to your needs:

#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-


import threading
import subprocess
import os
import configparser
import time


QEMUCMD = "qemu-system-x86_64 " \
          "/FULL/PATH/TO/vm.img " \
          "-enable-kvm " \
          "-machine type=pc-i440fx-2.3 " \
          "-vga cirrus " \
          "-net nic,model=rtl8139 " \
          "-net nic " \
          "-net user,smb=/FULL/PATH/TO/SHARED/FOLDER"

SMBCNF = "smb.conf"


class RunQemu(threading.Thread):
    def __init__(self):
        threading.Thread.__init__(self)

    def run(self):
        subprocess.run(QEMUCMD, shell=True)


background = RunQemu()
background.start()

# Just wait some seconds to be sure the temporary folder is created
time.sleep(2)

print('Searching for qemu specific smb.conf in /tmp ...')
path = None
for root, dirs, files in os.walk("/tmp"):
    if SMBCNF in files:
        path = os.path.join(root, SMBCNF)
        print("Found smb.conf: {}".format(path))

if path:
    config = configparser.ConfigParser()
    config.read(path)
    try:
        config['global'].update({
            'server min protocol': 'CORE',
                })
        with open(path, 'w') as f:
            config.write(f)
        print("Succesfully adjusted smb.conf.")
    except KeyError:
        print("FAILURE: Can't adjust smb.conf!")
else:
    print("FAILURE: Can't find smb.conf in /temp!")

background.join()    # Wait for the background task to finish
print('Main program waited until background was done.')

Save in a file and run it like

python SCRIPTNAME

At least python version 3.5 is needed, just to mention it.

Re: Cannot access samba shares since update to samba 4.11.3-3

Thank you, it is much appreciated. In time I will switch to a tap/tun solution as the samba and internal smb settings seem to have too many grey areas!

Re: Cannot access samba shares since update to samba 4.11.3-3

In my case adding "client min protocol = default" to /etc/samba/smb.conf solved the problem with accessibility of HDD connected to my router, but now all the files are displayed and treated as...folders.

Weird, eh?

BTW I love your signature. Right now I feel like part of my floor has been removed by someone.

I have updated to samba 4.13 from testing repo and this problem persists.
Can anyone confirm?

Re: Cannot access samba shares since update to samba 4.11.3-3

How are those Computers connected? Is there a router or any other hardware in between?

I am not a network guru, but i think this is a security feature of samba. And updating samba will never solve it...

There is a router between the machines.

Re: Cannot access samba shares since update to samba 4.11.3-3

I upgraded to Samba 4.13.0-1 today and once again tried to see if this problem was resolved. Nope, I still couldn't log in the way I used to. Still had to manually add 'server min protocol = CORE' in /tmp/qemu-smb.xxxxxx/smb.conf in order to log in to host system from the Windows vm at '\\10.0.2.4\qemu'

Previously I could log in the Arch host from '\\hostname\username' without adding 'server min protocol = CORE' anywhere.

Today I just tried logging into the host system using '\\host-ip-address\username', with 'server min protocol = CORE' inserted into the global section of /etc/samba/smb.conf. And it worked. I'm not sure why as my system configuration hasn't changed (edit: AFAIK) since the days I logged in using '\\hostname\username'. Anyway, I'm happy that I don't have to manually edit /tmp/qemu-smb.xxxxxx/smb.conf everytime I want to run my WinXP system.

Re: Cannot access samba shares since update to samba 4.11.3-3

Update:

So I switched from user mode to bridge mode on the qemu side, and upon having everything wired up for that, plus having 'server min protocol = CORE' in /etc/samba/smb.conf, everything works fine again. Took a bit of reading to get there, but it was worth it - it works and I learned a few things as well.

Now I no longer have to manually insert 'server min protocol = CORE' in the smb.conf file that user mode spins up in /tmp every time I run the vm, and with the switch to bridge mode I finally can block access to external networks including the internet from my aging WinXP vm.

Adding these lines

client min protocol = default
also did not work.

However I can access my samba shares typing smb://server/shared_folder in the file managers.

I've had the same experience as you with samba 4.12.1-1. However, smb://server/shared_folder doesn't work for me.

What OS are you running on your guest? I'm running a WinXP guest and previously \\server\shared_folder used to work.

I use two computers:
desktop runs Arch + KDE Plasma
laptop runs Arch + Gnome
My laptop can access the shares from desktop after I add

client min protocol = CORE
server min protocol = CORE

OR

client min protocol = default

lines to its smb.conf file AND run the following commands:

killall gvfsd
nautilus -q

But the file managers installed on deskop computer (Dolphin, pcmanfm and nautilus) can not see the shares from laptop
even after I add the lines mentioned above to its smb.conf file and reboot.
I need to type smb://server/shared_folder as mentioned in my previous post.

Today I have solved the problem on my desktop computer installing nss-mdns package and adding mdns_minimal [NOTFOUND=return]
to /etc/nsswitch.conf file according to wiki
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Av … resolution

Nautilus installed on laptop is working again since update to Gnome 3.38. Curiously, if I follow the same steps mentiioned above on my laptop,
Nautilus stops finding the samba shares from my desktop computer. I had to revert the change in /etc/nsswitch.conf file,
uninstall nss-mdns package and restart Gnome session to make Nautilus finds the samba shares from my desktop computer again.

Re: Cannot access samba shares since update to samba 4.11.3-3

The problem is back, but this time the old solution doesn't seem to work for me.
