Can't view or access ubuntu pc in network like this from windows


Mario

I can't view my Ubuntu 18.04 PC (acting as a file and media server) from a Windows PC. I have installed Samba, Tasksel, System-config-samba, python-glade2, samba-common, smbclient. Edit avahi-daemon to 0, create "me" and "netguest" users in samba, sudo ufw to allow "Samba" (even with firewall disabled), sudo chmod 777 /media/mydrive/Mystuff (and all shared folders) . The Windows PC is on the Homenet network and the Ubuntu PC has a static IP (192.168.0.10) which can be pinged, but cannot be accessed or seen. I don't know if they affect two things, I have 2 routers, the second router acts as a range extender, but it's the only router that can be wired to the Ubuntu PC, the rest are connected via wi-fi. The smb.conf file is attached. Thanks for any help.

The Ubuntu PC has a static IP (192.168.0.10), which can be pinged, but cannot be accessed or viewed.

Please run one of the following commands on the server:

nmcli device show | grep DEVICE

ifconfig

I'm willing to bet that you don't have an interface named eth0 in Ubuntu 18.04.

But that's exactly how you tell samba to use these two lines in smb.conf:

interfaces = 127.0.0.0/8 eth0
bind interfaces only = yes

Remove these two lines so samba can resolve itself and restart smbd:

sudo service smbd restart
