Good afternoon All I'm trying to connect my better half's win10 laptop to my Samba share printer. I've tried several supposed fixes without success, including disabling the firewall (which worked for my Win7 VBox). The only thing I've read that I haven't tried is changing a key in the registry - because I am reluctant to try something potentially dangerous when nothing else has worked. I'd do it on my my own machine if necessary, but I need to know it works before I try it elsewhere. So here's the url from my debian laptop: smb://WORKGROUP/192.168.0.126/C1860-Series smbclient list for me: keith WARNING: The "syslog" option is deprecated Enter keith's password: Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Windows 6.1] Server=[Samba 4.5.12-Debian] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- homes Disk Home Directories print$ Disk Printer Drivers IPC$ IPC IPC Service (Samba 4.5.12-Debian) C1860-Series Printer Samsung C1860 Series keith Disk Home Directories Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Windows 6.1] Server=[Samba 4.5.12-Debian] Server Comment --------- ------- COMPAQ Samba 4.5.12-Debian IINETCABLE-SMB Samba 3.0.37 Workgroup Master --------- ------- WORKGROUP IINETCABLE-SMB smbclient listing for wife: anne WARNING: The "syslog" option is deprecated Enter anne's password: session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE keith@asus3:~$ smbclient -L 192.168.0.126 -U anne WARNING: The "syslog" option is deprecated Enter anne's password: Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Windows 6.1] Server=[Samba 4.5.12-Debian] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- homes Disk Home Directories print$ Disk Printer Drivers IPC$ IPC IPC Service (Samba 4.5.12-Debian) C1860-Series Printer Samsung C1860 Series anne Disk Home Directories Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Windows 6.1] Server=[Samba 4.5.12-Debian] Server Comment --------- ------- COMPAQ Samba 4.5.12-Debian IINETCABLE-SMB Samba 3.0.37 Workgroup Master --------- ------- WORKGROUP IINETCABLE-SMB So, anybody got win10 to talk to Samba? please. I have read somewhere that I can share a printer over ssh, but not found any guide-lines. Would that be easier? Thanks -- Keith Bainbridge keithrbau@gmail.com +61 (0)447 667 468
