That is whilst I was trying to do this as the only machine user, who is of course in the "Administrators" group. Just to test a hunch, I tried to remove the "Administrators" group from the sharing permissions and just add the one named account.
This still didn't allow me to browse the share from the Win8 machine. I subsequently added the "Everyone" user and gave it just the "Read" permissions. This appears to have fixed the issue for me. I only had to add the "Everyone" user to one of the shares and all of the other shares started working without issue on OS X.
In the end I ended up with the various drives' roots being shared to the one named user under "Full Control" and on one of the shares I have the "Everyone" user with "Read Only" permissions.
And this works fine. To be frankly honest I don't care which particular account would actually need to be added instead of "Everyone", but I'm sure someone could enlighten us. Hello again caid! MultiColourPixel: I tried it, but it didn't work either. However, you description of the problem resembles mine so much that I think it's possible that NOW it it doesn't work due to the many changes I made to the policies and registry. I have "refreshed" my windows now, hoping that this resets all these settings to the default values.
Unfortunately, I have to install all my programs again - once I'm done with this, I will test your suggestion again and that form Computermensch as well and report my results here. I guess, this will happen on Friday Night. I am in the same boat. The problem is not with Windows 8, however, as it has been working with windows 8 ever since I installed it the day it was officially released.
And it has been working until about a week ago. My LAN is normally locked down very tight, with no internet access for most machines. The problem started when I unlocked it for a while and both Windows 8 downloaded updates, and the WD TV Live downloaded a firmware update.
Checking the WD forums, it seems several other people are having master browser problems after updating their firmware. Seems the latest samba client is quite aggresive at insisting it be the master browser for the network. After further testing and diagnosis however, I determined that my main machine Wizster , the one with all the network shares of multimedia, had a master browser problem. If I ran a "net view" on it, it would only show itself. But on any of the machines, Wizster or a laptop I could do a "Net View machinename" and it would show the shares of the other machine, even if it didn't show up on the list for the "net view" Also, within Windows Explorer and 'Network Neighborhood' or whatever you call it nowadays everything was fine, the problem was only with the command line "net" utility.
After a great deal of research on the web, I found a bunch of info about what the master browser is, does, how it picks the master, etc, but not much info on how to diagnose a master browser problem. I thought maybe it was my firewall software, which I disabled, then uninstalled, with no luck. I also reset and disabled the windows firewall. I ran several network capture and diagnostic tools, including MS net monitor, but they didn't report any specific problems and I was not sure what I was looking for in the captures.
Finally, out of frustration, I did a system restore from 2 weeks ago, before the problems started. That fixed my problem main machine Wizster and now all my windows computers all see each other when I do a "net view". But now I think a problem still remains with the latest firmware for the TV box, and samba.
I cannot find any way to downgrade the firmware. If anyone has any troubleshooting tips for Master Browser, or can advise me what to look for in Net Monitor or a capture tool, I'd be much obliged!
