I run Samba on my FreeBSD to enable Windows to browse the network shares on my FreeBSD box. But suddenly Samba or Windows freaked out, when mapping more than one network share to driveletters, Windows XP says:
Also, when I open up a textfile from a share in Windows, all line-breaks are converted into little white squares. When I open them up in tsWebeditor, it's going nuts and showing only garbage. The other way around, when opening a file made and saved in a Windows app in FreeBSD, I see an extra W before each line break. I have never had this problem, in fact, I even transferred my entire website from Windows to Linux just two weeks ago with no problems at all.
I must say, after some thinking while I am typing, I haven't tested it much since I installed Samba3 (samba-devel in ports) on the BSD box. I know for sure it worked perfectly under at least Samba2.
Of course I did a testparm smb.conf to test it, here's the output:
Please help me. I'll do some testing myself too.
While just 30 mins ago I had 5 network shares all under the same username running with no problem at all.Multiple connections to a server or shared resource by the same user, using more
than one user name, are not allowed. Disconnect all previous connections to the
server or shared resource and try again..
