Yes, I can ping all my pc's and vm's by ip or name, also connect to shares by name.[/size]

Re: Network share not working - paul1149 - 01-22-2016
Ok, thanks. Again I appreciate your input. Now that I've got the share working, this is not critical, but it's interesting that it's not working here on either machine.

This is a good resource. I either was unaware of or had forgotten about it. Perhaps it should go on the desktop.

@paul1149
Sorry for delay... Been a bit busy and I still have a lot of individual notes files, moving them slowly into Cherrytree.
When I first started with Linux I still had multiple XP PC's and had issues get things to work between XP and Linux by name.
Did lots of Googling & Playing in the end I got everything working by name... So these are my notes & comments
When doing fresh install I always install:
Code:
sudo apt-get install system-config-samba cifs-utils libnss-winbind winbind gvfs-backendsNote: I only use Samba Tool to check configs, I still use LL Network Share method to set things up
Then,
In the smb.conf file, add the following to all PC's "except" one that is either always on, or is used the most.
local master = no
I put it just "below" name resolve order
This avoids the similar situation that you can get in Windows where sometimes when browsing PC's seem to disappear.
It allows 1 PC to maintain a list of all pc's on network
Then edit & modify the following:
Code:
gksu leafpad /etc/nsswitch.confThen change the line:
Code:
hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dnsTo this:
Code:
hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] wins dnsThen re-boot
I have done many builds & re-builds, I have yet to be unable to use/reference PC's by name.
All my PC's accessible by name, inc VM's.

Re: Network share not working - paul1149 - 01-24-2016
Wow, thanks Wirezfree. I appreciate you taking the time to show me how to do that. This will make it a lot easier to get things up and running. My friend will be able to move her own recordings between her two units, which is what she needs to do, in addition to my own LAN needs around here. This has gone verbatim directly into my own CherryTree file!
BW,
Paul

No problems...
I hope it works for you, any issues, post back, will see if I can help.
