Computers are not visible in my network

firekage · 2020-11-07 16:23:44

Hi to you all.

I'd like kindly to ask, again, for your help. I've been struggling with Samba all the time. I'm not such experienced user to use something different on linux, on Arch to file sharing, that's why i use Samba.

I have three machines

-my desktop with I7-7500 named 7500_uATX
-my laptop with B960 named Arch_E1
-HP Elitebook 8200 with I5-2400 running Daphile linux

The main problem is that i cant connect to Samba shares using Dolphin by discovering computers, folders. Machines are in the same workgroup. The only way to enter 7500u_ATX from this machine or different machines is to enter IP in Dolphing > Network > Samba Shared Folders > : smb://192.xxx.xxx.

What is more strange, with my laptop i can discover Daphile running. With desktop i not only cant detect Daphile, but also i can't detect my own shares form this machine. I need again to enter IP.

Could somebody help me understand what is wrong, how to solve it once and for all? Maybe somebody who knows better linux networking?

I don't think that it is related to:

-client max protocol = NT1
-server min protocol = NT1
-ntlm auth = yes

I tried to add it, delete it and still it is the same problem.

My Samba shares on two machines are exacly the same:

[Share_name]
comment = Arch_7500
path = /mnt
valid users = firekage
public = no
writable = yes
printable = no

I'd like to enter my shares withount needing to know the IP addres of each computer. Just discover it, enter folders.

Please help.

You need to properly setup avahi to get local name resolution afaik: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Avahi (... I do remember that systemd-resolved should provide something similar but haven't dabbled much with it)

SMB uses netbios, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sa … host_names
Also try a "manual" detection: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sa … ork_shares

Thank you for helping me out to solve this problem.

I tried manually did what was suggested by the link above, but no luck:

This section is still ok:

Looking up status of 192.168.1.XXX
        NETIASPOTDRIVE  <00> -         B <ACTIVE> 
        NETIASPOTDRIVE  <03> -         B <ACTIVE> 
        NETIASPOTDRIVE  <20> -         B <ACTIVE> 
        ..__MSBROWSE__. <01> - <GROUP> B <ACTIVE> 
        HOME            <1d> -         B <ACTIVE> 
        HOME            <1e> - <GROUP> B <ACTIVE> 
        HOME            <00> - <GROUP> B <ACTIVE> 

        MAC Address = xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx

But this section does not work:

smbclient -L\\NETIASPOTDRIVE
protocol negotiation failed: NT_STATUS_CONNECTION_DISCONNECTED

I think that it is related to this:

Someone suggested that it is beacuse of wireless connection - and in fact i connect to network after loggin in, after that network is started wirelessly.

According to wiki a corrected this:

cat /usr/lib/systemd/system/nmb.service

I also digged into this found on opensuse forums:

After this one up i corrected again this

cat winbind.service 
[Unit]

Documentation=man:winbindd(8) man:samba(7) man:smb.conf(5)
;After=network.target nmb.service

LimitCORE=infinity


[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
[firekage@ArchE1-531 /etc/systemd/system]$

Unfortunately, i still think that nmb.service and/or winbind.service does not work because when switching off Arch i see that Samba nmb failed to start.

192.168.1.XXX

There's no need to obfuscate LAN addresses (it's a private address space, google "I hacked 127.0.0.1") and we'll need to identify the systems.

Someone suggested that it is beacuse of wireless connection - and in fact i connect to network after loggin in, after that network is started wirelessly.

Please elaborate on that, does re/starting the SMB services after connecting to the network "fix" things and you can browse SMB shares?

What's the output of "ip a" before after connecting to the network and how exactly do you establish the connection (what service, config, invocation, etc.)

After this one up i corrected again this

Not good, you created a cyclic dependency by adding the service to its "after" list.

Edit: genitive… I hate when my fingers do this.

Ok. Thanks.

On my laptop machine i can enter SMB shares without need to know ip and type it in Dolphin. On desktop machine it still does not work.

WIll check this up in a while.

I connect with ehternet cable plugged into RJ 45 lan cable, nothing much special.

Ok, deleted it and did the right way.

No to my desktop.

exacly the same that i have on my laptop machine.

And again, i have to enter ip into Dolphin in order to enter samba shares.

Something more:

sudo systemctl restart smb nmb

See "systemctl status nmb.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

Please use code tags, not quote tags for shell IO.

The "ip a" is for your desktop which is unrelated to the late WiFi situation, is it?
Also you've a connection, so nmb can't fail on that.

What brings us to the protocol situation:

Unknown parameter encountered: "interfces"

There's a typo in the smb.conf, I suggest you post all of them.
If you want to obfuscate shared paths, replace every a-zA-Z w/ an "x" - don't gloss over UTF-8, numbers, blanks…

Also tray to enforce protocol versions (-m …)
https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/curren … AXPROTOCOL - especially since the netiaspot thing seems to be some integrated router device?
It probably only speaks NT1 …

Yes, it it output from desktop machine plugged with ethernet cable.

Well, even still have to type ip address.

Yes, i checked it and corrected earlier.

Dont understand this suggestion.

I tried it, add and or remove. Still the same. On laptop works, on desktop does not. Laptop is connected over wireless network, but desktop by cable.

Netiaspot if from network provider router. I cant even configure it, only basic stuff.

You suggested enforce protocol. Add -m switch. But to where?

Something more

sudo systemctl restart smb nmb

I would post outputs of -xe, but cant find how to post in in english locale. If i found i will post it.

Dont understand this suggestion.

I'm asking for the /etc/samba/smb.conf configurations and because those might include lines like

path = /usr/totallynotporn/certainlynotporn/maybeporn/okitsporn

you might want to edit them and obfuscate private stuff, but when doing this, only replace the latin alphanumerical characters.

"-m" goes to smbclient, so eg.

smbclient -m NT1 -L \\NETIASPOTDRIVE

systemctl status smb.service

"-xe" is usually useless, try eg.

journalctl --since "20 min ago"

for the last 20 minutes of log.

The "20 minutes ago" where just an example - it doesn't look like you attempted to start nmb during that time?
There're some winbindd errors but those would relate to user/group resolution, not the netbios name.

Stupid question: does your router do DNS?
You could just announce the hostname via dhcp, have the router resolve it and screw all the P2P name discovery.

No, i did not restart nmb.

Unformtunately, i don't know answer for the first part. Like to check it but don't know how.

Second part - to much complicated to me, don't know how to do it.

The only thing that i could do is change router, but if i change i won't have internet acess at all - router from my internet provider is preconfigured.

See whether the router does DNS:

nmap -p53 192.168.1.254

How do you obtain the lease? dhcpcd?
Uncomment the "hostname" line in dhcpcd.conf, re-connect, see whether the router can resolve the domain of the re-connected device.

Still try lowering the min SMB protocol and post a journal segment that covers the nmb re/start.

I use networkmanager package, dhcp package is installed.

Uncomment the "hostname" line in dhcpcd.conf, re-connect, see whether the router can resolve the domain of the re-connected device.

Ok, will try it.

Ok, i commented netbios name so it is not used, restarted smb nmb

53/tcp closed domain

Nope, the router doesn't DNS, so we can scratch that path.

I use networkmanager package, dhcp package is installed.

General sanity check:

find /etc/systemd -type l -exec test -f {} \; -print | awk -F'/' '{ printf ("%-40s | %s\n", $(NF-0), $(NF-1)) }' | sort -f

There're no terminal issues w/ nmb, the service starts.

1. did you try to lower the minimum protocol versions?
2. You still have the winbind.service running and "wins" in /etc/nsswitch.conf, do you?
3. Do you maybe run some netfilter? ("sudo iptables -L")

I see light of hope

https://paste.pics/8050a3c8d0da7375257673f6b830f6e2

https://paste.pics/c8ed89b7f594860e6f2f6bc998e12222

I noticed that adding or removing

netbios name

does nothing but adding this:

;[protocol]
client max protocol = NT1
client min protocol = NT1
server min protocol = NT1
ntlm auth = yes

Resulted in picutes show above, so it looks like it is working to some way (have to check it with other machines)

I don't understand why i need to have NT1 and rest of this in SMB when they SMB2 protocol is a default one right now. It looks like Dolphin had some problems? In my laptop machines i see my "workgroup", here on desktop slightly different looks it

My smb and nmb services could not start properly - misconfiguration in /etc/nesswitch with 'hosts" parameter. I deleted, restarted, enabled also winbind.service and corrected it and now Dolphin is searching and shows me 3 shares:

-MYHOME
-MYGROUP
-WORKGROUP

Don't understand why in WORKGRUP i dont see my 7500uATX desktop but his shares are in MYGROUP. Also, i cant enter it. I see it, asks for password when i have "map to guest = BAD PASSWORD"

Also, something more

https://paste.pics/96252a7401786362c632c47cc61843bf

I cant enter my own shares because of error message: "file or folder smb://mygroup does not exist". STRANGE.

The only way for SMB seen my shares is to have it like this:

# workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name, eg: MIDEARTH
   workgroup = MYGRUOP
[firekage@7500uATX ~]$

if i change it to

# workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name, eg: MIDEARTH
   workgroup = WORKGROUP
[firekage@7500uATX ~]$

7500u_ATX folder is not visible at all. Just like does not exist.

So, it is not capable of using DNS?

No, the router doesn't provide a (local) DNS service, so you cannot use it for that purpose. Unfortunately.

netctl@wlp3s0\x2dMK\x2dWiFi.service      | multi-user.target.wants
NetworkManager.service                   | multi-user.target.wants

It looks like you're using concurrent network managing services. If you want to use netctl, disable and stop NetworkManager.
This is not necessarily the problem about nmb, but certainly a problem to fix.
(And it doesn't exist on your desktop)

-MYHOME
-MYGROUP
-WORKGROUP

You likely want all systems to be in the same workgroup.
Since you don't have (sufficient?) control over the router(?), that would be "HOME"

I assume the router doesn't support SMBv2, but you should try to get away WITHOUT

client max protocol = NT1
ntlm auth = yes

Notice that you also seem to have ";[protocol]" still commented.

Thank you very much. I will dig into that, read more about netctl - maybe it is something old because i don't have it installed at all. No packages present in the system.

Ok, thankt you again. Will check it.

I checked it with my 2 machines.

ntlm auth = yes

is not needed. I can comment this out, however:

client max protocol = NT1

if is commented out than i cant browse SMB shares across this 2 computers and even more, SMB shares disappear from machine that i try to connect to its own SMB shares.

I start to think that it is related to Dolphin and something in Dolphin is broken because SMB uses 2.0 protocol by default, but with it i cant browse SMB shares.

If it's only dolphin, do you not have the problems w/ smbclient ?
Also there's a difference between "browsing shares" and "name resolution".

Please summarize the status quo regarding the name resolution situation and the "browsability" with smbclient.

I don't use smblicent with manual mounting and a need of typing commands into terminal

Don't understand where this leads me to. Name resolution what have in common with my problem of browsing shares and being them visible or need of entering ip instead of browsing by clicking into Dolphin?

We used it for some tests… this is about locating the issue, not about "hey, just use smbclient instead of dolphin"

Name resolution what have in common

I guess the thread derailed a bit from "withount needing to know the IP addres of each computer" over "avahi to get local name resolution" to "SMB uses netbios" - I operated under the impression that the main issue was that you were unable to access the shares by their server name.
