    Hi,

    I am new to use the Deepin Linux. I woould like to use this OS permanently, but I can't connect to the another Windows PC in my office network. After I installed/removed the Samba and the configuration, finally I gotten this message in the screen: "Sorry, could not display all the contents of “network:///”: The specified location is not supported".

    We use WIFI with internet, and I don't have any problem for the connection.

    Thanks for advice.

    Hello,

    I am also a noob to deepin (well Linux in general)

    I have found with all my Debian based distros i had to add the line below to the samba config file to see network shares.

    File to edit
    1. /etc/samba/smb.conf
    Copy the Code


    Add this just below WORKGROUP = WORKGROUP
    1. name resolve order = bcast host lmhosts wins
    Copy the Code

    I would add that the name resolve order line should be shorter.

    name resolve order = bcast host
