thunar samba (SOLVED)

#1 Post by old_guy »

I just updated two of my machines to XFCE 4.18. I have a home LAN named lab set up using samba. On thunar 4.16 I was able to type in smb://lab and see all of my machines. With thunar 4.18 I get:
Error
Failed to open "File System"
Failed to retrieve share list from server: Invalid argument

Is something missing with the update or what? It gives the same failure on both updated machines.

Update
After a little while (the time it took to type this up and check it out on three machines) it started working. Something just took a little time to set itself up in the lan, but it now seems to be working correctly.
