I use samba/cifs quite a bit, as you are trying to do, with various
Linux distros running in a VM, both with VMplayer and also with
Microsoft Windows Veritual PC. <br>
<br>
It sounds like somehow you have a file permissions problem on the file
share that is set up on your Ubuntu distribution. You can start by
checking the logs on the Ubuntu distro. If that does not provide the
answer you might try installing, if it is not already there, and
running Ethereal on the Ubuntu system to see the packet exchange
between the VM and the XP host regarding the failed authentication
attempt. This may tell you something as well. <br>
<br>
By the way there is a new version of it that was just released this
week by Microsoft. Here is a url to the download page for the software<br>

I have not installed it yet because it warns the user that any existing
VM's should be shut down (i.e. not "saved state") prior to installing
the upgrade. This is to assure that the VM's will still work after the
upgrade is completed.<br>

<pre wrap="">Very many thanks for setting up a VMWare appliance for maemo! This allowed
me to compile and run the canonical 'Hello world' example in just a few
hours -- I hadn't run Linux for a few years; it's good to be back :-).
I'm running as a virtual machine on a Windows XP host, and I think the one
think I need before being able to start a serious application port to the
N800 is to be able to share files easily between the virtual machine and the
XP host. I'm almost there, but not quite:
I installed Samba using the synaptic package install, then used Share
Folders to set a share for my home directory (and also set the workgroup
name for my local network). All seemed to take, but:
-- I cannot see any of the Windows machine (or myself) in the Windows
Network on Ubuntu
-- from the Windows side, I can see the machine UBUNTU-MAEMO (so I think
Samba is running OK) -- but when I try and connect to the share the
Password dialog just gets re-presented, as though the user and password
are wrong.
Any ideas?
