Windows 7 and Windows 10 networking not working 11.2 u5 & u6

FreeNAS 11.2 u5

NFS stopped working for Windows (win 10)
Same user account working via OS X

originally believed to be a Windows issue.

Problem:

Unable to write to FreeNAS from Windows

Attempts to write data denied.

FreeNAS reply:
A file with that name already exists

Even with empty directories.

User account working / able to read & write via OS X

Researched extensively - found the issue several times over the last decade, user OS as always Windows...

1. Solution

Reinstall Windows (win 7)
expectation: NFS would be immediately fixed

NOPE! same error.

2. Solution

Tried to use SMB instead.
Unable to start SMB
FreeNAS error: 'unable to start service'

Tried to fix any SMB resource permissions
700 I believe ... using SSH,

BY MEMORY ... I believe it was

/var/db/samba4 msg.sock

...still didn't fix it.

3a. Solution

Forum-member informed me that u6 was out and suggested I update...

I was also unable to update FreeNAS Feeling kinda ridiculous at this point .. !

3b. Solution

• unable to ping domain names

• able to ping IP addresses...

• added local router IP to:

• messages.3.bz2

Allowed the TEMPORARY resolving of DNS and subsequently, to update to u6

3a. Solution (back to it)

• SMB is still unable to start .

• NFS is still unable to read or write ....... from Windows. OS X = still working.

There's several people right now whom all have similar (if not identical) issues.

Thanks in advance!
