Debian 7.6.0 under Hyper-V
 

Hi,

I am running Windows 8.1 with Debian 7.6.0 as the guest OS via Hyper-V. I am trying to set up a folder on the guest to share out with other Windows machines on the LAN including the host.

When I create a mapped network drive in Windows 8.1 I get a login prompt for machine 'debian' which is what I called the guest machine. I have user 'storage' set-up to have read/write access to the folder 'test' which is what I am trying to share.

When I enter the username/password in the Windows prompt I get the following error:

The account in not authorized to log in from this station.

BTW, all machines are part of workgroup 'WORKGROUP'.

Any help would be great. Thank you

EDIT: I will give a bit more info maybe it will help. Samba is the latest version installed via synaptic. I cannot access the share from Windows 7 or 8.1. Error message is the one given above in all cases. IP network is okay; everything can ping everything. Machine 'debian' is seen in windows explorer when browsing the workgroup. I cannot access it by clicking the icon either; same error message.

Didn't know they added hyper-v.

Pretty well supported in fact.
