Samba does not work anymore

[michielscholten]

Ever since upgrading my home server to ubuntu 20.04, my CIFS/Samba share is not available to f-stop anymore. If I try to create a new connection to it, f-stop even says “Error: Please check server name” (which is correct of course; at least, I tried putting the IP address in there, or a domain name that resolves to the correct machine on the internal network).

Other applications work just fine (think VLC, Solid Explorer etc).

Any idea what’s the cause of this? I tried downgrading the server to a lower version of SMB protocol, but that did not seem to help.

Hi all

I have the similar problem. Is there a solution?

Hi
I have the same problem and error.
Any solution?

I have this issue as well. SMB is working on other machines and in Solid Explorer.
Are there any news regarding this issue?

Smb version 1.0 is no longer supported by F-Stop

Fstop needs an upgrade to smb2 due to the widely commented on problems with smb1. I hope the Dev can do it soon …
