  • Protocol index out of range?

    From Paul Oates@21:1/5 to All on Thu May 12 18:27:34 2022
    Ladies and Gentlemen

    I am trying to share files between a computer running Ubuntu 22.04 and an
    ARMX6 running RISC OS 5.29.

    I have LanMan98 v2.08 in standalone mode.

    I can ping both the router and the other machine from either.

    When I try to establish a share to connect to I get a message from
    LanMan98 Filer 'protocol index out of range'

    I am unable to translate the message into anything I can understand, and
    been unable to find a reference to such a message.

    I have tried with both the new TCP/IP stack (with the latest !omni), and without it.

    What does the message mean and what am I failing to do?

    Many thanks

    Just a couple of ideas ...
    - does the Ubuntu machine accept SMB1/CIFS protocol?
    - have you tried stopping Raw reads? - see !LanMan98.!Run

    Your Ubuntu box will have to be set to use the ancient version 1 of SMB
    to work (-o vers=1). Alternatively setup NFSd and use !Sunfish on RISC OS.
