I am trying to create samba file server (Ubuntu 14.04) on my local network,
I can connect to samba server from another Ubuntu 14.04 and enter the shared folder as a guest, but after creating a directory I'm getting following error:
Software caused connection abort
The point is that when I re-enter the shared folder I can see the created directory! So I have required write and read permissions,
I have tried different forms of configuration in smb.conf with no success,
even when I share a directory by right-clicking and selecting local network share from the context menu, I will face the same error!
Also when I do the same procedure using smbclient:
NT_STATUS_CONNECTION_DISCONNECTED making remote directory \test
smb: \> SMBecho failed (NT_STATUS_CONNECTION_DISCONNECTED). The connection is disconnected now
