Public bug reported:
After upgrading to 15.10 my samba share stopped working. Guest shares
work, but user authentication does not. After browsing to the share the
user and password prompt is displayed but fails even with the correct
credentials.
I tried purging the samba packages and rewriting the configuration from a clean
copy of /etc/samba/smb.conf
The user is present in smbpasswd.
The share configuration is of the form:
[myshare]
guest ok = no
path = /home/username/myshare
browseable = yes
read only = no
valid users = username
user = username
As a workaround I created a linux container for ubuntu 15.04, installed
samba, used the same configuration, created the user, mounted the users
home directory using --bind, and forwarded ports 139, and 445 and was
able to get it to work.
