The next step is to configure the new virtual adapter. Go to Network Connections configuration panel. Right click on the Microsoft Loopback Adapter and select Properties. If you have a gateway and DNS servers in your network, enter them too. Another solution for Windows 7 that doesn't involve running a. Within that, there's a service named "Server" with the description "Supports file, print, and named-pipe sharing over the network for this computer.
I was then able to forward port over ssh and successfully connect to a samba drive. I'm running like that right now, and I'm both connected to samba over ssh and able to act as a server for file sharing. I installed a loopback adapter and assigned the ip-address In PuTTy I configured a new tunnel to forward Is it this what you did, too?
And one more question. As far as I see this solutions provides only the possibilty to map shares on the one server only. Do you have an idea how to map shares on different servers? EDIT: I found a very simple but not very elegant way to map shares on different servers. One loopback adapter per destination-server allows this. If someone has a more elegant idea, please post it. I recently had to do exactly that for various machines.
Indeed, it is possible to disable the "Server" service, and Gausebeck is correct in saying that if you do that it is possible to forward port over SSH via the loopback adapter. You can then also manually start the "Server" service and "Computer Browser".
However, having done that I can no longer access locally served file shares I get "Login failure: The target account name is incorrect. Note that I am working in a domain environment. Does anyone have any experience of this?
I have posted for a similar need elsewhere on the TechNet forums. The ISP is actively blocking traffic on port and states as much on their website. This is supposedly to provide some amount of security against the spread of some Internet Worms. It also has the effect of preventing mapping to a shared resource on a remote network server whether or not I use a VPN.
Without rehashing all the details, there is a very simple fix for this if you are in the same situation. All you have to do it pay the ISP for a business service connect and suddenly your problems are over. We have specifically tested this on Comcast so I cannot say if true for others. This would have the effect of allowing any "business" to have no problems connecting to other "businesses" but if you want to do a little work from home you better find a good Cloud provider.
As hard as that may be to believe, we actually had on employee who got fed up with it since she could connect with no problem to a mapped drive with her laptop connected to her Cellular Router a MiFi unit but the same setup failed using her home internet.
She volunteered to pay the price to see if a Business connectin would solve the problem. It did. Immediatley and with no fanfare, she was able to map just as she could before all this port blocking mess.
The whole thing began about 3 years or so back. Before then, Zero problems. I might add that she is in Delaware and the home office is in Florida. Access to the mapped drive was almost as fast as if it were local in her system. The same setup using any type Cloud provider can't even come close to the speed and performance.
The VPN would always connect but mapping the drive always failed. In the past month, we have had the largest cable provider in this area also join the pack with this port block.
Yet they were working fine a few weeks back same systems, same software. I tried multiple VPN configurations with the same results. Office Office Exchange Server. Not an IT pro? Windows Client. Sign in. United States English. Ask a question. Quick access.

Hi, I'm trying to map onto a remote drive, but I'm having huge problems when mapping port to the remote machine, with putty I get "Local port I've read of various fixes that are supposed to work, but nothing has for me yet, not calling the support desk and using the KB , nor a few other fixes that I've read.
Is there any other option? My Vista version comes with SP1 preinstalled, so I've no option to disable this Is there another way around this, I do think it's a real irritation and another example of taking the control of people who know how to use the OS away. Tuesday, October 21, PM. I used Putty and bound my local loopback addresses on ports and to the tunneled IP addresses' ports and on the remote network. I tried this on two different Vista machines: One with the KB patch applied and the other with SP1 integrated in.
It worked on both. No blue screens or any other quirks that I could see. Only problem is that you must bind the port before starting SMB. You can't stop the device once it's started or at least I couldn't. Again, I didn't come up with this approach on my own. Theultramage's post pointed me in the right direction.

I would like to use an application on a windows 7 machine to edit files on an ubuntu machine that is behind a firewall. If it is then I could use some help setting it up. I used these instructions. They obviously didn't work for me, but they do summarize what I have done so far. To simplify the problem I tried tunneling telnet over ssh instead of smb. When I say "this works" I mean this connects me to my ubuntu box on the other side of the firewall the firewall blocks telnet.
I initially thought that pointed to a problem with the loopback adapter configuration, but it also does not work when I try to telnet via the physical network adapter like I tried specifying the IP of the loopback adapter in the ssh tunnel source like below and I also tried the IP of physical network adapter.
In both cases I got the same results as above, telnet via loopback works but nothing else does. I don't think you'll get much luck tunneling smb over ssh. Look into something like OpenVPN.
The way to avoid the collision with the Windows is in taking advantage of the network Adapter, which will allow us to create "multiple" ports Lets open Control Panel, Add Hardware: Windows will scan the hardware, but not to worry, if it doesn't find anything new it will prompt you: Just select "Yes I have already connected the hardware" and now the Windows will be curious about the nature of the hardware Select Add a new device and Install the hardware that I manually selected from a list on the next dialog, as shown below: This is going to be the Network Adapter: Select MS Loopback form the list of available adapters: The only thing left for us to do now is installation of this device and we are just a step away from seeing it in the list of network Connections in Control Panel: We can certainly rename this adapter into something more logical, e.
My Server, however it doesn't really matter. First, we need to select IP address from the range of addresses for local networks non-routable or black hole. If port numbers This is necessary to exclude this connection from being the default connection. We can check that the settings are correct by running route print command. Everything is ready for the launch of ssh tunnel: ssh -L If Samba or Windows SMB on the server is configured correctly then everything will just work at this point.
There can be a number of reasons for it, with the firewall being the most likely. First, you need to check that local firewall is not blocking connections to Then you need to make sure that port If the connection goes directly to the server, you need to check that
