I upgraded my Dell XPS13DE from 14.04 to 18.04 after some updates broke my audio and touchpad. Under 18.04, I lost access to my NAS drive and my network printer is slow. Zoom will not install because Samba doesn't work. My router only operates with Samba 1.0 and I don't want to fool with passwords, anyway. I have had two people, one that is a Linux sys admin try to help and none of the suggestions have helped. I have removed and reinstalled all Samba components and tried various edits of samba.conf, but that did not cure the problem. Please fix/help me fix Samba. I've been fooling with this off and on for about a year.

2" I have had two people, one that is a Linux sys admin try to help and none of the suggestions have helped. " all the answers you will get are going to include those your 2 people tried. It is custom to actually list those suggestions they tried. My answer is a generic one that (acc. to my documentation ;) ) worked for me.– RinzwindJun 18, 2020 at 13:43

You almost certainly need SMB 1, not Samba 1. The current version 4 of Samba should be fine.– chrylis -cautiouslyoptimistic-Jun 18, 2020 at 23:19

Add ntlm auth = ntlmv1-permitted
to /etc/samba/smb.conf
in the [global]
section and restart Samba with sudo service smbd restart
.
And to anyone needing this: Samba 1 is disabled for security reasons in Ubuntu 18.04 and onwards for good reasons. So only use this to extract what you need and ditch the hardware.

Depends. If he's not using WiFi he could theoretically have a secure LAN for which he doesn't have to care.– JoshuaJun 18, 2020 at 22:06
