Connecting to Rockstor via SMB from Windows 10/2016 Workstation

Hi all,

I have am able to connect successfully to a non guest Rockstor shares using either the mount commands ( see my other post ) or using the GNOME file manager “connect to server” feature in the GUI no problems from a Centos 7 workstation.

I used to be able to connect from a Windows 10 worksation to Rockctor via SMB no problems.

Recently I have upgraded to the latest Rockstor and also installed the Plex Rock-On. Now Rockstor version: 3.9.2-48

Now however, I am unable to connect to the same samba share on Rockstor from a Windows 10 workstation. Windows 10 prompts me for username and password which is not accepted. The Windows 10 worksatation is in the same samba workgroup as the Rockstor server (“Lab”), and the WIndows 10 firewall is disabled. I even have on the 56bit NTLM option for file sharing as well as the 128bit defaults.

From this Windows 10 workstation I can connect to shares that are published from another server on the network that happens to be a Windows 2016 server.

I am also unable to connect to Rockstor shares from this Windows 2016 Server. This server used to be able to connect to the Rockstor shares but now it cannot.

I have just realised the Rockstor shares are not visible under network either in Centos 7 or Windows 10 - despite wll the sahres being “browseable”

I have tried just about everything - anyone know what to look for?

Error from Windows box

@david_harrison Hello again.
Linking to your ‘other post’ re:

for convinience:

Can anyone chip in on this one re share access from Windows 10 while OK from linux?

I think the browseable issue is down to some upstream changes and we do have work to do there. Linking to @Code_Monkey’s post re his fork of a Netgear open source project to provide this now required WS-Discovery service on Rockstor. Thanks @Code_Monkey. This fork/approach has been confirmed by @Hooverdan:

But we are still left with the basic share access so do please chip in if your see what @david_harrison’s issue is here or are experiencing the same / have a work around etc.

Hope that helps and thanks for helping to support Rockstor’s development via a stable channel subscription.

more info.

Tried turning on guest access to the share, still get prompted for user/password which doesn’t work.

Also turned on SAMBA v1.0 support in Windows 10, still no joy.

latest logs after a SAMBA Service restart. Rockstor is 192.168.239.31, Windows box is .35

another interesting fact…

If I connect to Rockstor via sftp://rockstor.mwaa.com.au/movies_war I can authenticate using the plex_general user, and it shows a directlry listing as being successful in Filezilla - but no files listed.

@phillxnet

First - I ran up another Rocktor server in a VM and it all behaves perfectly.

So I think I have found the issue with my original Rockstor server… Well an issue that might explain why the issue is happening, and I think it’s because all my permissions are screwed up…

I thought I would take a look at /etc/samba/smb.conf and ensure that operations via the GUI are writing to it properly.

here are excerpts from /etc/smaba/cmb.conf - showing the config of two shares.

[Photos_Simone]
root preexec = “/opt/rockstor/bin/mnt-share Photos_Simone”
root preexec close = yes
comment = Samba-Export
path = /mnt2/Photos_Simone
browseable = yes
read only = no
guest ok = no
admin users = plex_general

and

[Simone]
root preexec = “/opt/rockstor/bin/mnt-share Simone”
root preexec close = yes
comment = Samba-Export
path = /mnt2/Simone
browseable = yes
read only = no
guest ok = no
admin users = plex_general

Now, I looked at the mounts.

[root@rockstor /]# ls /mnt2/Photos_Simone/
012002 012006 012010 dsm.opt Videos
012003 012007 101NIKON oldpics_scand
012004 012008 bronyscake photos
012005 012009 Copy of Simones Photos Pictures of Cannery Road

[root@rockstor /]# ls /mnt2/Simone/
012002 012006 012010 dsm.opt Videos
012003 012007 101NIKON oldpics_scand
012004 012008 bronyscake photos
012005 012009 Copy of Simones Photos Pictures of Cannery Road
[root@rockstor /]#

Interestingly they show the same contents. This should not be possible because the share “Simone” I created as test is actually empty. ie It was created with the GUI and no files placed in it!

So given that SMB is showing me the contents of the wrong directory, I’m not surprised I’m having permission issues with existing shares.

I’m not able to connect to any shares on this server with Windows machines…

When I connect to the above shares with a Linux machine I do indeed see the same content for both shares.

So advice on what to do - I imagine it is start again which is a pain given the investment I’ve put into it so far, not to mention the amount of data I have to move off it and stage somewhere…

Any help appreciated, otherwise I might have to give FreeNAS a go after buying two subscriptions for Rockstor!
