Here's the error I get when I click on on Browse Network / Windows Network in the left pane on Thunar (the previously noted error is when I click on a bookmarked shared folder):
Code: Select all
Failed to open "Windows Network"
Failed to retrieve share list from server: No such file or directory.
Given this error, it's not surprising that I can no longer access my wife's Windows computer from my Linux machine.
Based on another thread I found, I discovered Samba is not running. I tried restarting, but get this:
Code: Select all
Failed to start smbd.service: Unit smbd.service not found.
Failed to start smbd.service: Unit smbd.service not found.
I'm unable to find any references to this error for Linux Mint, and I'm always hesitant to enter terminal commands unless they're being presented in the context of a LM install.
