Samba Mount Headache

I banging my head, I am unable to mount samba share. Here is the info
Samba share is in RHEL 6.5
# vi /etc/samba/smb.conf
[sambashare]
comment = samba share
path = /smbdemo
guest ok = yes
browseable = yes

# ls -dZ /smbdemo/
drwxrwxrwx. root root system_ubject_r:samba_share_t:s0 /smbdemo/

# getsebool -a | grep samba
samba_create_home_dirs --> on
samba_domain_controller --> off
samba_enable_home_dirs --> on
samba_export_all_ro --> on
samba_export_all_rw --> on
samba_portmapper --> off
samba_run_unconfined --> off
samba_share_fusefs --> off
samba_share_nfs --> off
sanlock_use_samba --> off
use_samba_home_dirs --> off
virt_use_samba --> off


Accessing this share from another Red Hat Box 6.4 (samba-client)
# smbclient -L 192.168.1.10 -U don [Works perfectly]

Now, when I try to mount the share as:

# mount.cifs //192.168.1.9/smbdemo /opt/test/ -o user=don
Password:
Retrying with upper case share name
mount error(6): No such device or address
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

# smbclient //192.168.1.9/smbdemo -U don
Enter don's password:
Domain=[BARNES] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.6.23-14.el6_6]
tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME

I searched in google but no avail.

Can't Access Windows Share From Linux

Hi all. I can't connect to my Win 8.1 box from Linux Mint. I can ping the Win box successfully. I can access my Linux share from my Win box. It seems like the problem is with windows. I've been working on this problem for about three days now with no luck. I've uninstalled Norton Security in my Win box. I've deactivated Microsoft's firewall. Not helping. My smb.conf is:

[homes]
read only = no
security = domain
workgroup = WORKGROUP

[share]
comment = Shared Data
path = /home/gary/share
gues ok = yes
writeable = no
browseable = yes

To make things simple i created only one shared folder on my Win box, asm. On Linux i type: sudo mount.cifs //GARYZ97/asm /home/gary/share -o user=Gary ; Gary is apparently my correct Windows username. BTW, i've also tried gary.
Linux responds with: [sudo] password for gary: jj ; this is my correct sudo password
Next response is: Password for Gary@//GARYZ97/asm: ; here i have tried my Microsoft Account password; i've tried just hitting enter; i've tried jj my Linux password. I'm at my wits end. What am i doing wrong? I've googled so many different sites but no one seems to have the problem i have. Please help. I don't want to pull out all my hair. I can access my Linux share from Windows, edit it, save it, and i see the changes on my Linux box. I know i'm being repetitive here but i just can't access my Windows share from Linux. I have run testparm on smb.conf and no problems there. Almost forgot. After entering what i believe is my correct Windows password i get: mount error(115): Operation now in progress, and then on the next line, Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

[B]RHEL & CENTOS: What Is The Best Practice For Mounting NFS/CIFS/DISKS[/B]

I am practicing mounting NFS/CIFS/ISCSI/and .ISO loops on Centos 6.4

For NFS/Cifs, I am creating root directories to mount to
(/Samba /NFS_Share)

Should I be doing this instead?:
(/mnt/Samba /mnt/NFS_Share)

Sharing Folders And Mounting Shares With SetGID / Samba

OK this is kinda long, so I will shorten it as much as I can, as to not be long-winded.

My current network at home:
1 - CentOS 7 desktop (server)
1 - Ubuntu 14.04 desktop
1 - Fedora 21 laptop
2 - Windows 7 desktops
some other various windows boxes also that don't get used regularly, but are on the network.

My 2 Linux desktops (which I use as servers, but they really aren't) have shared folders on them, which I share to the network via Samba (CIFS). I use Samba because Linux is smarter than Windows and Windows won't read NFS, so I share them as Samba so all devices can see them.

Generally speaking, if I share the folders on each box as 0777, I have no issues. But lately I have been wanting to implement some better security, so I wanted to SETGID and chown the shared folders from the local machine to a specific group, then change the folders to 2774.

My problem is that I keep getting permissions errors when trying to connect from the other Linux machines, and sometimes the Windows machines also. My main question is: do I CHMOD 2774 the local mount-point before mounting it? Or so I CHMOD 2774 the shared folder on the other server, then mount it locally to a folder whose permissions are different? Or do I CHMOD both of them the same?

basically the uis and gid ownerships change on a local folder when I mount a shared drive to that folder, so when I try to write or sometimes read that local folder, I get permissions errors.

I can provide any additional info needed.

Samba-Apache-Webdav Permission Problem With User Www-data

I'm not sure if this should be in the newbie section, but I am somewhat of a newbie, so here goes:

In a home network, I have an Xubuntu file server with a Samba share that has me as the owner and authorizes me to access the share.

On another computer, I have Mint running and providing various services, including webdav on Apache with SSL. In the var/www/webdav directory of the Mint computer, I have the Xubuntu Samba share mounted. This is supposed to allow me to access the Samba share from the public internet.

Everything works fine except for one big problem: Apache requires the owner of the webdav directory to be user "www-data," and I can't figure out how to give www-data access to the Samba share, since www-data is not a user on the Xubuntu computer, and moreover I don't know the password for user www-data.

Can anyone figure out how to get around this problem? In particular, is there a way to configure the Samba share on the Xubuntu computer so that user www-data on the Mint computer can have access to it?

(Incidentally, I have my reasons for using two computers, one as a file server and one as a web server. Also, I am thinking about switching to NFS instead of Samba, but I'm not sure if even that would solve my problem.)

Getting Through SAMBA Security

Ugh - been working on this for days

I have a SAMBA server running on a Raspberry Pi. Should be pretty much up to date - retrieved today.

Want to get Windows 7 and Android smartphones to be able to access, but neither can. Ideally, I would like to generate no password challenge, but that does not seem to be on the agenda. Windows 7 cannot seem to send the account name in a way SAMBA understands. The Android phones similarly have no luck getting credentials to SAMBA.

Tried many, many variations, read many, many pieces of advice. Most recent smb.conf attached.

FYI
1) I have tried with and without SECURITY=USER
2) did smbpasswd -an nobody
3) the share has CHMOD 775
4) testparm seems happy

Any help appreciated.

Mount Error 115 On Some Shares

Hi there guys,

I hope you can help me with a small issue that is kinda driving me crazy.
I'm running debian wheezy on a virtual machine and trying to mount some shares from the win8.1 host.
The lines I put in the /etc/fstab a
Code:
//192.168.0.10/dir1 /home/user/dir1 cifs credentials=/root/.secret.pwd,uid=1000,gid=1000,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm 0 0
//192.160.0.10/dir2 /home/user/dir2 cifs credentials=/root/.secret.pwd,uid=1000,gid=1000,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm 0 0
//192.160.0.10/dir3 /home/user/dir3 cifs credentials=/root/.secret.pwd,uid=1000,gid=1000,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm 0 0

The first share gets mounted correctly, but not the other two.
This is the output I get when sudo-ing a mount -a:
Code:
mount error(115): Operation now in progress
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)
mount error(115): Operation now in progress
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

and this is what /var/log/syslog shows:
Code:
Mar 24 12:56:12 hostname kernel: [ 1887.029043] CIFS VFS: Error connecting to socket. Aborting operation
Mar 24 12:56:12 hostname kernel: [ 1887.030013] CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -115
Mar 24 12:56:22 hostname kernel: [ 1897.052130] CIFS VFS: Error connecting to socket. Aborting operation
Mar 24 12:56:22 hostname kernel: [ 1897.053885] CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -115

The same happens at boot time.

Now, the crazy thing is that if I run manually a:
Code:
sudo mount //192.168.0.10/dir2 /home/user/dir2 -t cifs -o credentials=/root/.secret.pwd,uid=1000,gid=1000

it works perfectly.

Now, I'm no power user, but I thought I'd be able to manage a couple of simple cifs shares...but then again I guess not
So, my questions so far a
1. how the heck do I make that work?
2. why is it not working? Might be the security? Should I choose perhaps ntlmv2? I read a bit around but I don't know this kind of security mechanisms, so...
3. why on earth is the first mount working just like a charm and not the other two?

You know what? I'm trying now to remove the sec option from the fstab, and see how that works out.

In the meantime, if anyone could lend a hand I'd appreciate it very much

Samba Won't Start/stop Via Webmin -- Ubuntu 12.04

I have a vps with Ubuntu 12.04 that I'm in the process of configuring. I have configued samba and been able to mount a share from my local computer to my samba share on my remote vps.

The issue is that when I go into the Samba server module and I click start, stop or restart it has no effect what so ever. I can ssh into the terminal and run $ sudo service smbd start and that will work (as well as stop/restart). However it will not work within Webmin.

I then went to the module configuration and changed the start command to: service smbd start and the same for the stop command (with "stop" though).

I then when to System > Running processes and saw that smbd is running however the list is showing "is running now" as NO. I click the start/stop button within this section and it doesn't work again.

Can anyone please help me figure this out?

Webmin 1.5.9
Ubuntu 12.04
