I can access other shares in the same workgroup, namely "WORKGROUP" (as I said the samba server on my other raspberry pi, running raspbian wheezy, works fine), but not the mac. I should also mention that I get that same "operation not permitted" message when browsing to the system. At first it connected, then when I tried to add a username, everything broke and now I cannot connect at all-with or without the username. 'Samba GUI', it won't open with no errors, just doesn't run at all. 1 Hy, I am using freenas 8. I was also able to duplicate the entire process using the ip address.

Now, anytime I try to connect whether with or without a specific username in the url, I cannot, and instead get an error message, saying "operation not permitted". Everything seemed to break at this point.
#SMBUP SAMBA NOT STARTING SOFTWARE#
Make sure you installed the latest CIFS and Kerberos software as mentioned above. Curious as to why it did not prompt me for a username/password upon that initial connection, as it did when connecting to a share on my other raspberry pi (configured via normal smb.conf), I took away "everyone" "read-only" access and tried to change the url from "smb://MYMAC" to where "user" is the name of the owner account for the shared folder on my mac. If not, then samba is not set to autostart, and you should set it up to do so with something like : update-rc.d samba defaults. This is not the end all be all of setups but it is something that worked for me. Finally, I allowed "read-only" access to "everyone" for the shared folder, and then everything worked fine.


At first, I successfully did so although it would not list any directories as I did not set the appropriate permissions. I have an smb share on my mac and tried connecting to it from xbian.
