From a newly installed Windows 10 I am not able to access a share on a Linux computer on the same network. I can access it from another computer.
What utilities can I use?
Thanks
I'm trying to set up a Samba share on my Windows 10 pc so my original Xbox running emulators can access a folder where I store my files. I don't have the first clue how to do that. Help me, please!
For security reasons Microsoft has disabled the SMB 2 guest access. You are right that you can change the Windows settings to allow the guest access to the samba share.

You can change GPO settings to allow this. However, you can force use SMB 3.0 on samba site (will work if all your clients support SMB 3 protocol) as an example:
client min protocol = SMB3
client max protocol = SMB3
To work I needed to add in my smb.conf
server min protocol = SMB2_10
client min protocol = SMB2
client max protocol = SMB3
ntlm auth = yes

THE REAL PROBLEM:
As you can see in this image...
...my user "eduardo" is actually "alldocube"... As seen in the print above the way the user "eduardo" ("alldocube") is in the system caused a huge confusion! Actually I couldn't understand how it happened...
SOLUTION:
So the only thing that needs to be done is to share (Properties > Sharing) drive "D" for the user "alldocube" (in my case) and give permissions (Properties > Security) on drive "D" for the user "alldocube".
To access the sharing using Linux open the file browser (Dolphin in my case) and in the path field enter smb://WORKGROUP@/ .
NOTE: smb://WORKGROUP\alldocube@192.168.0.5/D in my case
FUTHER QUESTION:
Is it possible to rename "alldocube" login to "eduardo"?
Thanks! =D
