samba hasn't been working with 2 logins on the same server since Ubuntu hardy 8.04

[Stefan Richter]

Binary package hint: nautilus

I think that this bug occurs in Ubuntu hardy and not in Ubuntu Gutsy.

if I log in a samba server in nautilus (smb://user1@192.168.0.3) I will not be able to log in the same server with another account (smb://user2@192.168.0.3).
Instead of showing me the files and folders of user2, I get the directory of user1.

thank you for your bug report, how do you connect to the server?

Sorry, I was absent ;-)
I try to describe this problem a second time.

Scenario 1: Ubuntu Gutsy 7.10

1. open nautilus
2. press the "edit" button so that you can type a location (e.g. /home/user/Desktop)
3. type the following address: smb://user1@192.168.0.3 and press "return"
4. now you have to log in on the server ...
5. so that you can see the folder of user1 on server 192.168.0.3 by using a samba-server
6. open a second nautilus window
7. type the following address: smb://user2@192.168.0.3 and press "return"
8. after that you have to write the password of user2
9. so now you can see the folder of user2 on the same server <= everything correct

Scenario 2: Ubuntu Hardy 8.04
1. open nautilus
2. press the "edit" button so that you can type a location (e.g. /home/user/Desktop)
3. type the following address: smb://user1@192.168.0.3 and press "return"
4. now you have to log in on the server ...
(after this moment the address automatically changes to smb://192.168.0.3 <= I think this is already buggy and didn't happen in scenario 1)
5. so that you can see the folder of user1 on server 192.168.0.3 by using a samba-server
6. open a second nautilus window
7. type the following address: smb://user2@192.168.0.3 and press "return"
8. after that you have to write the password of user2
9. now you can't see the folder of user2 as described in scenario 1 step 9
you only see the folder of user1 again <= bug!

I would be happy if this could be fixed.

Don't hesitate to ask me again ;-)

seems to be an upstream bug, to open on bugzilla.gnome.org by somebody having the issue

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

could you open the bug on bugzilla.gnome.org? you can easily reply to their comments since you get the issue

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

do you still get the issue? did you send the bug to GNOME?

[Stefan Richter (mr-s-richter)]

Sorry, I'm really stressed at the moment ;-)

Today I reported this bug to GNOME. You can find it here: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=559388

I tested this bug again and it still appears in Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron). But this bug does not appear in Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) Live-CD!

best regards

thank you for sending the bug to GNOME

The bug is old and Ubuntu changed quite a lot since, there has also been no activity here nor similar reports. Closing since we believe the issue as described is deprecated but feel free to file a new report if you still have problems in recent Ubuntu versions.
