samba again

1st Official Post

    i can browse samba but i cant transfer anything bigger then 20mb

    if i try anything bigger then 20mb. then i get 0x80070035

    i use windows 10 post creators update. on the htpc i use LEE 8.1.1 beta

    any clue?

    Not sure, it will be somewhere in the Windows Firewall settings (sorry not a Win 10 user so can't be more helpful than that). It would normally be quite strange for the firewall to block an outbound connection on the local LAN but I've not seen your issue reported before with LibreELEC and Samba4, so can only assume right now that there's a problem with your network (or Windows 10 PC).

    okei. thanks anyhow.

    somehow the network path has changed so now i can browse samba again.

    but the issue is still there

    i will look true the firewall settings one more time

    anyhow, thanks for a great piece of software and all the hard work

    i been following LLE since version 7.0.1 and i love it :)

    This samba thing is getting bit complicated...after updating to 8.1.1 on my LE plex server (old Laptop)couldn't access anymore my media from Plex...the network mounts where all failing on boot...tought what's going on...no ideas so went to factory reset everything..couldn't access my media on network on a RPI server again running LE...couldn't access anything even with forcing SMB 1...

    Well to my surprise there is a new setting...this time it's in the LE addon which done the miracle...had to set minimum to smb 1 and max to smb 3 for all mounts to work again...too late now as I had to start from scratch..I think it's a bit silly(sorry ;)) to set minimum to Smb2 and not 1 by deafault as it's causing unnecessary hassle...as with the default setting you can't see another LE Rpi on network acting as media server with folders mounted on another LE Plex server

    Quote from chewitt

    You may think it's silly, but we care about the security of our users: Stop using SMB1 | Storage at Microsoft

    I know it's more secure but not everyone knows what these settings are for and how to find them...My main issue is that with default settings you can't see 2 LE machines on same network...1 is a Rpi2 and the other HP laptop...So from the laptop couldnt see the Rpi with default settings and mounts failed with min smb2 setting..I think it's a good idea if smb settings are in just 1 place...thanks for your hard work and help chewitt

    Edit:the smb setting on kodi services didn't help...it was the new setting in the LE addon that enabled the network between my machines

    here is a thought.

    can this have something to do with the router?

    i rent a apartment so i dont have access to it
