SMS Kubuntu 8.04 Samba share won't work

**lumitalvi** · 05-22-2008,04:32 PM

Hi,

I have Samba share on Kubuntu 8.04 and share works fine with windows xp and windows vista computers but PS2 SMS player gives Login (5) error. Earlier I had Kubuntu 7.10 and samba share worked fine on SMS. When I installed fress install 8.04 Kubuntu version this login problem occurs. I haven't done any changes on PS2 and in new 8.04 installation I have same Linux/samba username and password than before.

I'm not sure but I think that there is something wrong on Kubuntu 8.04 version of samba because earlier on 7.10 Kubuntu samba worked fine. Maybe bugs or something I don't know..Can anyone help me with this issue?

My ubuntu 7.10 and 8.04 shares worked fine with SMS. But yesterday I reformatted the machine and installed winxp pro and its shares doesn´t work in SMS.

The IP hasn't changed, so I shouldn't have to change anything in the PS2 side...

what could have happened?

using sms 2.6 ATM

Turn off Windows Firewall.

You may need to turn off simplified file sharing, since that protocol variant is not implemented by SMS (AFAIK).

turned off the simplified fire sharing and didnt worked for the share I was trying, but I created another share and worked.

My conclusion is thata the share cannot contain spaces. My share name "films and series" didn't work, but my share named "videos" worked fine.

note that the directories under the share can have spaces with no problems at all.
