[Bug 502607] Re: Cannot Browse to Windows Shared Printer In Lucid

[sparker256]

Hope this will help

Did this use to work properly with a previous release ? Yes

bill at bill-1004:~$ dpkg-query -W -f='${Package} ${Version} ${Source} ${Status}\n' | grep samba
libsmbclient 2:3.4.3-2ubuntu2 samba install ok installed
libwbclient0 2:3.4.3-2ubuntu2 samba install ok installed
samba-common 2:3.4.3-2ubuntu2 samba install ok installed
samba-common-bin 2:3.4.3-2ubuntu2 samba install ok installed
smbclient 2:3.4.3-2ubuntu2 samba install ok installed

How is the remote share accessed from the Ubuntu system?

   1. other GUI client

If nautilus (or another GUI client) is used to access the remote share,
can the share be accessed with the smbclient command line utility ?

bill at bill-1004:~$ smbclient //Bills/HPPhotos
Enter bill's password: <press enter >
Domain=[BILLS] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]
smb: \> 

What is the remote server ?

bill at bill-1004:~$ smbclient -L //Bills
Enter bill's password: <press enter >
Domain=[BILLS] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]
