Only Some Windows Shares visible from Linux
Ok, so I have tried gnomba, nautilus, jags, smb4k, LinNeighbourHood, xsmbrowser, smbtree....
...but I simply can see all the resources on our LAN. The situation is thus.... Our Information Services have a very large LAN full of literally hundreds of windows PCs and a quite a few network drives. When I use my Win2K "network neighbourhood" I can see all the shares. When I use my Debian or my Ubuntu 6.06 box I can only see a few. I know the IP address of the Windows domain controller and I tried putting that in the /etc/samba/smb.conf file under wins server. Still no go. Any suggestions? |
Have you considered joining the Ubuntu or Debian boxes to the Active Directory Network?

Wah?

The domain controller should have a domain logon associated with it for the windows computers. You can add linux machines to a domain with Samba.
