I can't browse windows shared folders.

[hack3rcon]

Hello.
I'm using Debian 8.9 and it is up to date. When I want to browse Windows shared folders then I got an error about "Failed to retrieve share list from server...". How can I solve it?

Thank you.

...and you want us to guess how you set it all up, and where that screenshot originates from?

I never setup anything and I just use my MATE Desktop menu and selected "Connect to Server..." and I got above error.

Any idea?

Yeah, I have an idea: stop bumping your post.

If you'd like thousands more suggestions, Google your error message.

I can't find any useful information. I did all of them but got same error.

Although i am not entirelly certain, you can't just access windows shared folders. As debiman mentioned, you don't provide adequate information. How exactly are you trying to access your files? A quick and easy solution would be to install samba on your debian box. A samba server is capable of seeing all available linux and windows shared folders provided that you have set it up accordingly.

Then either:

- you're not following directions
- you're not actually reading what comes back
- you're lazy AND lying
- or...

Why I must install Samba. My Linux is not a file server and I guess the default samba tools can do it.

Your computer will simply be running an additional service (samba) and, thus, will be able to communicate with all the shared folders in the network. From my point of view, when windows machines are involved, using samba is extremely conventient. I am afraid this is all i can do since you provide nothing but a vague screenshot.

Which information you need? I can browse other Windows clients in Network but when I installed WannaCry patch on Windows Server then this problem happened.

we've been having lots of fun with hack£rcon over at LQ, how nice of you to join us here as well!

so you still do not provide enough information, however you saved this bit:

when I installed WannaCry patch on Windows Server then this problem happened.

- that really would've belonged in post #1, in bold and with lots of additional information - for post #11?

I don't like to write rude text here. Just leave me and please don't answer to my questions. If you not relax then ask admin for remove my post. You are here just for write bullshit and mock others but I know you are an ssho...and don't know anything.
