I have a Proxmox VM using ubuntu. i want to share the folder in ubuntu to LAN. i have installed samba for it. i can ping the VM ip from my windows pc with the same network, but i can't access the share folder. i'll try with windows explore and cmd with command 'net use'
what should i do?
 
Hello,

Do you have active firewall settings on your Proxmox Server ?
If so, please list them here ?

Do you have an activated Windows Defender on your windows pc ?
If so, check its config.

Are you in the same workgroup / domain ?

What's the result of "net view"and "net view \\ubuntu-vm" commands on the windows PC ?

What's the result of "smbclient -L //windows-pc" commands on the ubuntu vm ?

Kind regards,

GD

This case is solved by opening the correct port which is 445
i know the port after i run the command from my windows pc:

Code:
Test-NetConnection -Computer Name <ip-samba-server> -CommonTCPPort SMB
