Hi
Do you have smb1 enabled on the Win10 machine?
That would allow this to all work.
I am only using the 32 bit right now on some very old machines.
BTW I love this distro.
I was mostly curious as to why every distro I tried before this one (Ubuntu,Debian,and derivatives)32 bit or 64bit.
Antix 64 bit seems to be the oddball.
Am new to linux usually use windows.
In Response to enabling SMB1 on my server I also use this server for PXE and NFS and some of my services require SMB2 or higher.
Thanks for your time and effort Maybe just something goofy with my shares?

[dolphin_oracle]

good question. How would I check the windows machine. (its a windows 10 )

edit* nevermind I found the information on how to check. I'll look into that and let you know.

[dolphin_oracle]

Ok I checked my windows machine and the smb1 was still enabled.

Disabling the smb1 services on the win10 mediapc leads me to the same issues as the OP.

However, on a buster based debian/xfce install, while browsing didn't work (never does at my house), direct addressing in thunar did work, so whatever is wrong has apparently been fixed at least in versions of gvfs-backends that are available in buster. that doesn't help antiX since antiX doesn't use gvfs, but I'm thinking maybe an updated cifs-utils would do the trick but I don't know that for sure. There isn't an updated stretch version in debian-backports.

Hi
Thanks for following up.
I am still playing with Linux so I know little.
I did try apt to update cifs-utils and samba and still no success with mount command
Am sill using it on an old Dell 600 as a internet music source.
Works great.
I also use on a home laptop.
Have moved all relevant video/audio files to a webserver so samba not needed for now.
Thanks again.
