I've googled into this issue for many hours and are pulling my hair out of frustration.

I'm running proxmox VE 8, I've installed a Windows 10 VM (called PVE-WIN) following guides for setting up windows vm on Proxmox, and it all went smooth. I've confirmed that file/share settings in regedit, windows firewall, gpo are all OK.

Ipconfig shows following:

Gateway 192.168.50.1 is correct and that is my network environment.

In the explorer, PVE-WIN can correctly detect SMB sources

However, when I try to go to my fileserver Synology and/or my desktop I get this message:

However I can ping from PVE-WIN to my synology server and to my desktop with no problem.

  • My main desktop CAN access PVE-WIN itself as shared client.
  • My main desktop CAN access Synology as SMB.
  • Other Windows clients can access synology as SMB.
  • Synology running SMB 2.0 -> 3.0
  • My other Containers running as of various linux distros are able to cifs with no problem to my Synology server.

I tried with setting credentials before accessing:

Still not working. The closest I come to finding problem is this

However I could not find solution to this.

What am I missing out?

I am beginning to think it has something to do with Proxmox VE DNS. But I don't know what to look for.
Also in my router I can see Proxmox client and a container client, their respective IP adresses. But I don't see the VM-WIN IP in my router,

I tried following some tips such as allowing insecureguest regedit

editing gpo Lanman Workstation to allow unprotected guest logons to no avail!

Solution

I ended up installing an international / english version of Windows. Then Sambo 3.0 got working.
I found at one obscure thread that Windows non-english ISO have big problem with networking hence I attempted at the english version.

Guess that W10 is finding its way to the thrash bin!
