I then created a share on a Unix domain member, which was running Samba 4.21.3 and with 'disable netbios = yes' set (so definitely no NetBIOS): [testshare] path = /srv/test read only = no I set the permissions, as a test, to '0777': ls -lad /srv/test drwxrwxrwx 3 root root 4096 Mar 2 13:23 /srv/test Connected (in Network) from the win7 machine: \\192.168.1.114\testshare Entered my domain username & password when prompted, I was logged in and was allowed to create a directory, checking on the Unix domain member gave this: ls -la /srv/test total 16 drwxrwxrwx 3 root root 4096 Mar 2 13:23 . drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Mar 2 13:17 .. drwxrwxr-x+ 2 rowland domain users 4096 Mar 2 13:22 testfolder So I created another share, set 'map to guest = bad user' in 'global' on the server and connected to the share as an unknown user and that worked. So it is possible, it looks like something on the OPs win7 isn't set up correctly. Rowland

As an experiment, I thought I would try mounting from the new linux to the old linux. I was able to mount from the old to the new while working on fixing a bad hdd in the old linux. That mount worked great. But, when I tried to go from new to old, it failed: mount -t cifs -o username=brown //192.168.1.1/usenet-new /mnt/usenet-new resulted in: Unable to find suitable address. It asked for the password, but then gave the above error message. Another clue?
