[samba 4.4.2-1 armv7h] Mac OSX can't connect to shares

[marbi]

After updating to 4.4.2.1 from 4.3.6.1 samba shares stop working on Mac OSX (El capitan / Yosemite).

There is no problem on Windows or Linux.

After downgrading to 4.3.6.1 everything runs normaly again.

¿Any ideas?

Been looking at this for a few devices myself. I can connect to my smb shares via windows, linux, and iOS, but not my mac.

The link below explains the issue:

Pretty much, if I've read the news correctly, there was something fixed with smb shares regarding security during the most recent Patch Tuesday with Microsoft. Like usual, Apple hasn't updated their stuff yet. I don't think you'll be able to use OS X devices to access patched samba shares until Apple decides to update the security.

Thanks for the info.

I'll ignore future samba updates till Apple make some kind of update...

I think Apple has fixed the bug, at least on 10.11.4.

I'm currently able to use samba-4.4.2-1 and can connect to shares on all my devices (OS X 10.11.4, 10.6.8; iOS; Windows 7; Manjaro, Mint). I didn't alter any configs.
