KB2536276 - Windows XP PC getting "error system 58" when you do a net view \ the SMB server disks

Since the update of security Windows KB2536276 has been loaded on Windows XP SP3 PC on our network of customers, they

could not map network drives to unix SCO SMB servers 'Samba' software file sharing.  When they run the DOS command

net view \ is returned an error 'error system 58'.

The problem cannot be resolved by deleting the KB2536276 update, restart the PC and then the command net view runs correctly.

We need either this patch to be fixed and re-issued or have a method of prevention the patch re-loading

Thank you

David Spellman

See

It is a bug in Samba. You can find a patch under

https://Bugzilla.Samba.org/attachment.cgi?id=6593

Please be aware that this only occurs if you use plain text passwords which are strongly not recommended for ages in Samba.

Hope that helps,

Volker
