This typically lasts about a half-hour, during which I can go to a windows bar and log in and see files with the same ID and password.

If the 'good one' goes down and the MacBook automatically connects to the other one, instead of telling me the drive is off-line, the SMB drivers say 'Too many users.' (2) A couple of times a week, I get 'permission denied' when I try to access my Windows files. Gather the following information for the networked printer: server URL, queue name, printer location, and printer model information/features. Systems Non-Active Directory-bound computers running Mac OS X Users All users of above systems Actions 1. A couple of times a week, one or both of the routers goes down. AD-bound Macs may occasionally connect to a Windows server via SMB as well. (1) There are two WiFi systems here, and one of them has no access to the Windows servers. If you do these edits and don't want to reboot, you can mount them with 'auto mount -vc' TRIAL version : Limited bandwitch to 0.5 MB/s. This is located (in Fedora-based Linux distributions) in /etc/samba and the file is called smb.conf. You could forget your usb key or your usb cable, you will never forget LAN Drive. The first thing you need to do is set up the Samba Security mode.

LAN drive is also a powerfull client to connect to SMB servers, and view/copy/paste files easily. After two or three days of that, it mysteriously started working again. Samba is the standard Windows interoperability suite of programs for Linux and Unix. LAN Drive is a powerfull and easy SMB server - also known as SAMBA server - designed for filesharing. One quirk: After this worked fine for a few days, for two or three days, LibreOffice, Adobe Reader, and Finder could not find ONE of the two shares, but the shell and TextEdit had no problem. In other words, DNS would resolve the name, but mount_smbfs could not.Īnd I could not put the mount point in /Volumes, because boot up would delete it. (not Volumes)/Public -fstype=smbfs,soft Volumes)/ WGroleau -fstype=smbfs,soft some reason, neither the short name nor the FQDN of the server worked, so I used 'ping (name) to get the IP. What worked for me to make them mount during boot: => /etc/auto_master /etc/auto_smb <= # Create this if it doesn't exist <****
