craigr Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 So I upgraded to 6.3 last night and now cannot access SMB private shares anymore on my DUNE media players. I can access the private shares on Windows 7 still. If I make a share public I can access it from the DUNE players again... I don't want my shares to be public. If I go back to version 6.2.4 everything works fine again, but my Docker is messed up when I copy the files from the "previous" directory over the root on /boot/ I have tried resetting the passwords on my users. I have tried creating new users. Nothing I can think of works. Is there some way to preserve Docker and go back to 6.2.4? I will do this at least until I can sort out what's going on with private shares. Anyone have any suggestions on fixing my DUNE problem with private shares? This has consumed about 10 hours of my life already Thanks, craigr Quote Link to comment
craigr Posted February 5, 2017 Author Share Posted February 5, 2017 Well, I managed to get back to 6.2.4 and saved my entire config including docker and apps. Everything works perfectly with the DUNE players on 6.2.4, but with 6.3 the DUNE players cannot access private shares. Any ideas? Thanks again, craigr Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 There are other threads where this has been discussed since the release, including the release thread itself. Quote Link to comment

SnickySnacks Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 I was initially going to post that my DuneHD was working, but I realized I had my shares set to "secure" not "private". To get it working in "Private" mode, add ntlm auth = yes to your samba.conf in settings -> SMB and restart samba. Quote Link to comment

Howdy SnickySnacks, do you feel this may be a general answer to the problems a number of users are having accessing shares from other devices? If so, I'd like to post it more visibly. And can you add to your post how new users would restart Samba? Quote Link to comment

Howdy SnickySnacks, do you feel this may be a general answer to the problems a number of users are having accessing shares from other devices? If so, I'd like to post it more visibly. And can you add to your post how new users would restart Samba? I'm not sure it's a general answer (I was able to connect on Windows 10 in private mode regardless). It likely only affects devices that use the older NTLM1 authentication. My debugging steps went like this: Added to samba.conf: log level=2 syslog=3 reloaded config from telnet: smbcontrol smbd reload-config Saw in the syslog: "NTLMv1 passwords NOT PERMITTED for user" This indicated that my device was using the older protocol which was likely disabled for security reasons. Adding ntlm auth = yes then: smbcontrol smbd reload-config allowed the older authentication. This shouldn't make a difference for like windows 10 (which people seem to be having a problem with), but some devices that don't support NTLMv2 may require it. From the smb.conf manpage https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/manpages-3/smb.conf.5.html ntlm auth (G) This parameter determines whether or not smbd( will attempt to authenticate users using the NTLM encrypted password response. If disabled, either the lanman password hash or an NTLMv2 response will need to be sent by the client. If this option, and lanman auth are both disabled, then only NTLMv2 logins will be permited. Not all clients support NTLMv2, and most will require special configuration to use it. Default: ntlm auth = yes Looks like unraid or a more recent samba version is defaulting this to "no".

TUMS Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I'm having the same type of issues with my wdtv live box and private shares. And activating ntlm in the config didn't help either. I'm probably going to have to go back to 6.2.4 till all this is resolved... Quote Link to comment

It may give some insight. Quote Link to comment

Neo Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I have a “WD TV Live Streaming Media Player (3rd Generation)” and to add “ntlm auth = yes” on my samba.conf works for me. After a restart of my Media Player and my Unraid Server it access private Shares like before on Version 6.2.4. Quote Link to comment
