Cannot browse network

Post by mhoude »

Hi all,

After a fresh KDE 18.2 installation, I cannot browse the network, it says: Unable to find any workgroups in your local network. This might be cause by an enabled firewall.

However, I have a NAS which doesn't have a firewall and can access it with smb://192.168.0.x

And everything worked flawlessly on Mint 17.x.

What could be wrong ?

Thanks in advance.

I can also ping all windows computers by their hostnames.
