Hello kwagga,

My sharing problem was solved with the problematic machine through a
Windows 7 OS Image restore via Norton Ghost 15 (although I know this is
not a solution, nor workaround for the problem), which leads me to think
that this is a Windows configuration problem... Since I don't have the
problem anymore, I can place my smb.conf file like you asked, but I
doubt this would help in the solution of your problem...

Steps to Reproduce the Problem (like Clint Byrum model):

   1. Configured a path to be shared in Windows 7 Ultimate
   2. Tried to access it with both Nautilus and Dolphin and both showed
      the error: "Can't enter the remote machine CONCE-CPU" (without
      asking for the authentication to access the machine)

PS: The error persisted in my virtualized Windows XP Professional SP3 in
my Linux via Virtual Box Puel (latest version)

PS²: This problem is not related to the Windows 7 SP1 installation
because I tested the access of NAUTILUS to Windows 7 Ultimate Server
with and without SP1 installed, and it could access it in both cases...

PS³: I'm sending an image of the configuration of my Windows 7 OS
related to sharing options (these printscreens were taken in a Windows 7
Ultimate Build 7601 with SP1 PT-BR)... The computer from which I'm
sending the configuration don't have any problem related to remote file
share (server) or access (client), so we can have a clue of what
configurations can be applied without affecting Ubuntu (client) access
of Windows 7 (server) remote files... This PC uses BITDEFENDER TOTAL
SECURITY 2010 WITH FIREWALL AND ANTIVIRUS ENABLED ; Malware Anti-Malware
Bytes 1.50 ; Windows Firewall Disabled ; Windows Defender Disabled ;
Secunia PSI 2.0 and other program that are in a printscreen...

PS: All PC's in my WORKGROUP are configured for a Domestic Network (lets
files to be shared and accessed) and *NOT PUBLIC NETWORK*...

I'll later send more printscreens of other PC's in my WORKGROUP for you
to analyze too...

Thanks for your help and I hope I could help in the solution or
reproduction of the problem,

André Madureira
