When you use thunar or nautilius are there any messages in the journal?
And, on the client side (WS1), what do you get for
grep ^hosts /etc/nsswitch.conf
° Before I installed nautilus, thunar would display "smb" in the network browser but now it is showing the following line:
network:///dnssd-domain-SMB._smb._tcp
network:///dnssd-domain-ginette's%2520MacBook%2520Pro-Jan-2019._smb._tcp The second like is always there when her Mac portable is active.
I don not know exactly when it began showing the dnssd-domain-SMB line instead of SMB, perhaps related to nautilus installed and running now? In the server I changed a permission from root root to bobg root ...
journalctl doesn't show any activity until I start Thunar and then this: [bobg@WS1 ~]$ journalctl --since 15:24 -- Logs begin at Fri 2020-05-01 13:01:46 EDT, end at Mon 2020-07-13 15:26:03 EDT. -- Jul 13 15:26:03 WS1 dbus-daemon[1091]: [session uid=1000 pid=1089] Activating service name='org.freedeskto> Jul 13 15:26:03 WS1 dbus-daemon[1091]: [session
And nothing more when I click on Browse Network and the SMB line appears. If I double click on the SMB line displayed in thunar I get a notice Network Connection, Ethernet, Wired connection 1. Looks like Network Manager information.
[bobg@WS1 ~]$ grep ^hosts /etc/nsswitch.conf hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns myhostname
None of this seems to show anything of interest?
