SOLVED: Accessing the Shared Folders

[Poser]

I too am I have the same issue (win 8.1)

I have ownership of files
Samba is configured correctly
I can ssh and cp files to shares
I can ACCESS \\Hda\"shares"

Oddly though... I am not prompted for credentials, when I try to copy something via windows explores I simply get "permission is needed for this action"

Thoughts?

Check out the shares troubleshooting page in the Amahi wiki.

Check out the shares troubleshooting page in the Amahi wiki.

was the first place I looked. Again... ownership, access and linux permissions are all good. I simply am not being prompted for credentials when trying to copy files via explorer. Thus getting a permission is needed message. Net use shows no open connections.

Could it be a firewall issue? Did you check the Windows Credentials area to see if anything is saved? Seems like I recall something about this in the past. Not sure if it's documented in the wiki or here.

I will post a link if I can find it.

EDIT: Not sure if this will help.

oddly enough... win 8.1 was not prompting me for credentials, so, I just added credentials to credential manager and we are all set.

That is odd, but glad to hear it's working now.
