Hi, everyone,
I just upgraded my FreeNAS to 9.10 so as to take advantage of the features in the newer version of Samba that allegedly lets Final Cut Pro store its library over SMB. However, while I can get AFP to work just fine with the Mac, I can't connect to the SMB shares.
In both cases, I have guest access disabled. I created a user account on FreeNAS and can authenticate just fine to it when using AFP. However, once Finder sees that SMB is available, it now (tries) to default to that (as it should in newer macOS releases). However, sometimes when I click on my server's entry in Finder, it says "Connection Failed" and hitting "Connect As..." says:
I don't see anything amiss in my settings, but can you point me in the right direction of where to even begin debugging this.
Incidentally: Zeroconf seems to be working fine, like I said, when I turn off SMB and use AFP, Finder connects just fine; additionally, if I try to connect directly to 192.168.1.30, it fails just the same as using the Zeroconf entry. I can access the other network services on the FreeNAS just fine (web admin interface), AFP, etc., whether I use "beatrice.local" or the IP address.
Thanks for your help!
Best,
Tim

There was a problem connecting to the server "beatrice".
Check the server name or IP address, then try again. If you continue to have problems, contact your system administrator.
At other times, the SMB share has been listed but when I try to load it, it says:Check the server name or IP address, then try again. If you continue to have problems, contact your system administrator.
The operation can't be completed because the original item for "Photo_Vault" can't be found."
