Linux Lite Forums

Hello people
I had a problem connecting to the windows network, when I put smb: // ipaddressofwindowspc throws me:

Can not open "file system"
Failed to retrieve list of shared folders on server: Connection refused.

The strange thing is that, before updating my linux lite detected it and then no. :'(

Open a terminal, try the following:


eg. for me it would be:

Hello Jerry.
This is what it informs, "TALLER_PAPA" is the name of the computer.

[tt]familia[member=6882]Lucas[/member]-linuxcasa:~$ smbclient -U familia -I 192.168.2.1 -L TALLER-PAPA
Enter familia's password:
Connection to 192.168.2.1 failed (Error NT_STATUS_CONNECTION_REFUSED)
[/tt]

What I could do is share a folder.

Yes, you should have a share set up and configured properly on Windows first.

It's also usual that 192.168.2.1 is assigned as the router's ip address. Make sure you have the correct windows ip computers address too.
