[gollem] Are there any differences between connecting Samba Servers or Windows Servers

[Andrew Watkins]

Hopefully my last question.

I have connected to a Samba server but have had no luck connecting to a 
Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise 6.1.

Configuration:
$backends['smbi']['disabled'] = true;
$backends['smbi']['name'] = 'I drive';
$backends['smbi']['driver'] = 'smb';
$backends['smbi']['hordeauth'] = true;
$backends['smbi']['params']['hostspec'] = 'win2008';
$backends['smbi']['params']['domain'] = 'dcsnt';
$backends['smbi']['params']['port'] = 139;
$backends['smbi']['params']['share'] = 'sdata';
$backends['smbi']['params']['smbclient'] = '/usr/bin/smbclient';
$backends['smbi']['loginparams'] = array();
$backends['smbi']['shares'] = true;

If I change host name to a samba system it works:

SAMBA setup:
% /usr/bin/smbclient -L SambaServer -U andrew
Enter andrew's password:
Domain=[DCSNT] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.6]

         Sharename       Type      Comment
         ---------       ----      -------
         andrew          Disk      Home Directories
Domain=[DCSNT] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.6.25]

         Server               Comment
         ---------            -------

         Workgroup            Master
         ---------            -------
         DCSNT                xxxx


Windows Server information:

% /usr/bin/smbclient -L w2008 -U andrew
Enter andrew's password:
Domain=[DCSNT] OS=[Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise 7601 Service Pack 
1] Server=[Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise 6.1]

         Sharename       Type      Comment
         ---------       ----      -------
         sdata           Disk
Connection to bloomsburyfs failed (Error NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL)
NetBIOS over TCP disabled -- no workgroup available

As you can tell smbclient does not end nicely so it could be that.

Thought I would ask before I look into more.

Thanks
