Reconnect Samba Share after router replacement

Ask Ubuntu Asked by Adan Burlington on December 21, 2021

Im running Ubuntu Server 16.04.3 and have a samba share setup. It has been running great for a long time. Just today I upgraded my router to a eero mesh system and only one computer will connect. Server is hard wired via switch. Not sure why my other two computers will not connect.

Check if you hard coded IP addresses in your /etc/samba/smb.conf When I switched to Eero my LAN changed from 192.168.1.x to 192.168.4.x My samba.conf had 'hosts allow 192.168.1.' I changed it to 'hosts allow 192.168.4.' , did a 'systemctl restart smb' and I could reach my file server again.
