Networking sharing messed up since yesterday

English Install/Boot/Login

I updated and rebooted yesterday. Afterward, my Mac couldn’t see my Linux box. I hoped that rebooting both today would fix it, but no-go. The mac sees my computer now, but when I try to net-mount the shared file system, I get “connection failed” and when I try to go through the connection protocol, it says “there was a problem connecting to the server XXX”. Knowing what the problem is might be helpful, but that’s a OS/X problem. Since OS/X is unchanged, I’m looking for help here.

EDIT: found another message: “This file server will not allow any additional users to log in”
SO the update decided the limit should be zero instead of whatever it was before.
SO my question now is, How do I raise that limit?

BTW, new in the last few days:

I do not know a thing about Samba, except that I could get it to work and NFS stopped working properly. Is this the problem?

## Name: Samba Server
## Description: Opens ports for Samba Server.

# space separated list of allowed TCP ports
TCP="netbios-ssn microsoft-ds"

# space separated list of allowed UDP ports
UDP=""

# space separated list of allowed RPC services
RPC=""

# space separated list of allowed IP protocols
IP=""

# space separated list of allowed UDP broadcast ports
BROADCAST=""

It looks like the ports Samba will respond to are fairly constrained, but it could be normal. I wouldn’t know.

SMB services down for THREE DAYS NOW. :frowning:

$ smbclient //bach/share -U bkorb
Password for [KORBHOME\bkorb]:
do_connect: Connection to bach failed (Error NT_STATUS_CONNECTION_REFUSED)

so, now I can reproduce the connection refused on the Linux box itself. Somebody somewhere changed something with that last update. :frowning:

I still have no idea what changed.
