Connection Timeout on Windows Share (Network)
18,425
Had the same problem on Ubuntu 16.04.
Works for me after doing this quick fix:
- Edit the samba conf file:
sudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf - Then add this line in the [global] section
client max protocol = SMB3

I have set up a shared drive on my office network, the shared drive is on a Windows 7 PC and I have connected to it on my Ubuntu 16.04 using the Network (Samba Share). I am able to use the share drive but after using it for some time, I am no longer able to access it, I keep getting an error message:
The Share folder works fine after restart,
How can I keep my connection from timing out?
