Should the shares be visible in the Windows and Ubuntu network folders?

My laptop host is Windows 11 Home. The VirtualBox guest VM is Ubuntu 22.04.

  • Ubuntu IP: 192.168.56.102
  • Windows IP: 192.168.56.11

Both the host and guest are in the same WORKGROUP.

I can access the shares directly from the file managers from the host OS and guest OS:

  • From Windows 11: \\192.168.56.102\share
  • From Ubuntu: smb://192.168.56.11/share

Everything appears to work as designed. Here is the burning question that has plagued Windows and Samba networking.

Why don't I see the COMPUTER names in the network folders of the file managers? Since SMB1 is deprecated, should I see them?

When I run smbclient I get the following.

Query the Ubuntu guest address:

# smbclient -L \\192.168.56.102 -U rootPassword for [WORKGROUP\root]:    Sharename       Type      Comment    ---------       ----      -------    print$          Disk      Printer Drivers    share           Disk      Samba on Ubuntu 22.04    IPC$            IPC       IPC Service    HP Printer      HP Deskjet 4100SMB1 disabled -- no workgroup available

Query the Windows host address:

# smbclient -L \\192.168.56.11 -U rootPassword for [WORKGROUP\root]:session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE
