I disabled the firewall as it's not really needed. I'm the only user on the network and internet access is through a router and a cable modem.
It was the firewall. I wasn't aware there was one. Now it works! Thank you so much!
I'm the only user on the network - the Linuxlite server is my media server. I appreciate your effort.

I believe that it isn't a problem with SMB v1.0 as I can't access the share from a Win 7 box either. I tried configuring Samba to use SMB 2 with these instructions:...
I can't see the shares and can't see the server either by name or by IP address. Error is "Windows cannot access <SERVERNAME> Error code 0x80004005 Unspecified error" or "Windows cannot access...

In the case of the transfer between the Win10 box and the server, the files are being moved to their permanent home. In the case of the mapped drives, I'm moving files from one almost full drive...
The same thing happens when transferring large amounts of files between two mapped drives on the the server. Each mapped drive maps to a two drive RAID array on the server. The files are large...
When transferring 13 GB + of files to my Samba server on a Linux Mint 18 computer, the transfer eventually stops. The Windows message is "Destination Folder Access Denied You need permission to...
Thanks!!!! That was it. The shares weren't mounted under /mnt - they were mounted under /media. I edited the smb.cfg and Bob's your uncle.
Thanks a lot!
OK. Did that. Now I see the shares again when I try to access the Ubuntu computer by IP address - still nothing when I try to access it by its name. When I try to access the share, I get "Windows...

Guess what? Lots of us don't read them. And even if we did, we might not understand them. We just want our computers to work and to be secure. Some of us don't want to become Linux experts to be...
How can I change the default directory that Catfish starts its search in? I don’t want to have to click the drop down to change from /home – 99% of my searches are on a different drive. I’m using...
Like painfully slow. I've mapped a drive on the Windows box to the 1 TB RAID 1 two disk array I use for storage (the Ubuntu installation is on a different disk). It's controlled by a CERC SATA...
Yeah thanks. I tried to do it with line returns but the forum would not have any part of that foolishness. ;-)

FANTASTIC! Issue solved!
I took your suggestion and changed the volume's label to data to make it easier for me in the future.
Thank you very much!

I'm a Linux newbie - that's why I don't know what info you need to help.
That's great! That's the first piece of the puzzle - I think the filesystem IS owned by root (it is ext3).
Now how do I...
