Windows 10 and Samba

Post by tomek_vz82 » 2018/02/24 11:13:58

Hy,

I am having strange issue with client computers running Windows 10. I have CentOS samba server with this config:

Code: Select all

[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
server string = Samba Server %v
netbios name = centos
security = user
map to guest = bad user
dns proxy = no
#============================ Share Definitions ============================== 

[Prim_share]
path = /shared/shares
browsable =yes
writable = yes
guest ok = yes
read only = no
create mode = 0777
directory mode = 0777
It is on a network that has all Windows PC (XP, 7, 8, 10) and for the most of the time everything works as it should. In 1 out of 20 times on access it asks for username/password (nobody/nobody) and sometimes i cann't connect from specific PC to server. Not by name not by IP. In the same time all other computers cann access it. It is computer repair shop so these computers are always different but still i cann't figure out why some Windows 10 PC-s sometimes don't want to connect. Folder rules are 0777. Any ideas?

This is part of my smb.conf file :

[global]

# NTLMv1 - Windows XP
ntlm auth = yes

# Tested - Win 10 SMB3_11, Win 7 SMB2_08
client max protocol = SMB3
unix extensions = no

# Samba connections do not expire, server freezes because of too many samba processes
deadtime = 30

# Tuning
socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY SO_KEEPALIVE

local master = yes
os level = 33
preferred master = yes
