Cannot Scan to CIFS Share from Konica

Do you have any log files from the Konica?  Do you know if you're using an account that's trying to connect without a username and password?  If so, you'll probably have to change the parameters for NullSession:

[nasadmin@Celerra ~]$ server_param server_2 -facility cifs -info nullSession -verbose

server_2 :

name                    = nullSession

facility_name           = cifs

default_value           = 1

current_value           = 1

configured_value        =

user_action             = none

change_effective        = immediate

range                   = (0,1)

description             = Allows Null Session connection to share

detailed_description

Allows client to use Null Session (no username, no password) to connect to a share. By default, user will be able to login, but not read/write on the File System. The mapped UID for such user is -2 value. param cifs nullSession=0 prevents clients from connecting to a share when using Null Session. param cifs nullSession=1 allows clients to connect to a share without username and password. Please refer to cifs.nullSessionNotOnFS parameter.

[nasadmin@Celerra ~]$ server_param server_2 -facility cifs -info nullSessionNotOnFS -verbose

server_2 :

name                    = nullSessionNotOnFS

facility_name           = cifs

default_value           = 1

current_value           = 1

configured_value        =

user_action             = none

change_effective        = immediate

range                   = (0,1)

description             = Prevents read/write access using NULL Sessions

detailed_description

When this parameter is set to 0, it enables user read/write access on File System param cifs nullSessionNotOnFS=1 disables user read/write access on File System, if their UID is -2. When NULL session is used and this parameter is turned off, the Quota will not work correctly. This param works along with cifs.nullSession=1 param and SysAccessNetworkLogon privilege, which must be granted to Everyone on the server.  It's strongly recommended to use AuthenticatedUsers ACEs in shares' ACL

we looked at Null Session a while back, having a wide open share that could be accessed by anybody did not go well over with our security folks.

Mbjoe,

what Konica scanners do you have ? We have Konica as well and they are working fine with VNX (not working at all with Isilon)

If you cant use NullSession then you need to configure your Konica devices to authenticate to the VNX with a domain account or a local user account from the VNX CIFS server
