Using Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS (GNU/Linux 3.13.0-85-generic x86_64)
Samba package 4.3.8-Ubuntu gives you the error...

cli_list: Error: unable to parse name from info level 260
NT_STATUS_NO_MEMORY listing \*

...When you try to ls a Windows 10 machine.

the Samba team has a bug file/patch for it here:

Thank you for your bug report and for pointing to the upstream bug/patch. Is that a regression from the 4.3 security update? (assigning to the security team under that understanding, but if that's not one it should probably be handled as a normal SRU instead)

[Jeremy Null (soteriologist)]

No, it's post/aside-from the 4.3 security update. It happened both before/and after the update. Plus, I believe their patch is for any 4.3.x and 4.4.x versions. Double check me on that though.

Today's Samba update should contain the fix for this issue, could the original bug reporter please test the update and comment here?

This fixed it! Samba is connecting great again to my Windows 10 machines and they're all backing up now. Thank you!

Great, I'm closing this bug. Thanks!
