ERROR 0x80070035 Windows 10 1709 can not access samba file server share

After updating my windows 10 to version 1709 , suddenly my computer can not access my samba file server share .My Samba version is 4.3.11-Ubuntu. when i try to access the share files it will show error message "Windows 10 explorer network error 0x80070035 the network path was not found".


it caused by Windows 10 1709 prevents you from accessing network shares with guest access enabled. This has no reference to the SMB1 protocol which was disabled in the latest Windows 10 release. 


So to fix this problem go regedit

 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters] 
change the value  of “AllowInsecureGuestAuth” to 1.

try to access your samba file server again and you will face no problem anymore.

windows defender is turned off by group policy

After upgrading my windows seven to windows 8, i had found some problem about my windows defender. Yup, my windows defender couldn't active.

just follow this two simple steps :

1. I had installed another anti virus program ( AVG ) so the windows defender was automatic turn off     by system. so the first things to do is uninstall your antivirus (skip this if you don't have another Antivirus installed).
2. The Second step is change the registry value. The Group Policy is it referring to is probably the value DisableAntiSpyware under HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows Defender in        the registry.Just delete that value and Windows Defender should work again..

Restart your PC and enjoy your Windows Defender.

How to update Smoothwall express manually without internet connection

Actually updating Smoothwall express is very simple and easy, just goes to Maintenance menu and click updates tabs. There will be a list about installed updates. You can click check for updates button and click update button if there are new update in list. All done and very easy, but how to update fresh Smoothwall express manually without internet connection?

I have an experience in this problem, after got the answer in Smoothwall support forum; I will share it here to  everyone who was browsing for this problem in future.

The first step to update Smoothwall express manually without internet connection is todownload the update patch from here:

Smoothwall Express Update Files

After downloading the patches go to Maintenance menu and click updates tabs. Click advance and then browse the tar.gz file that you have downloaded before. Click upload and you will get this error “This is not an authorised update, or your patchlist is out of date”. What’s going on?

though, you also need the updates list to update your Smoothwall otherwise the updates would be considered invalid. Brand new Smoothwall will not has this list and it will not get this list until it connnect to the internet. This might mean putting a temporary and supported niche in place until it is updated.

alternatively, you could copy the list from a running smoothwall. it is located at /var/smoothwall/patches/available or if you don’t have it you can download from here: available.zip. (NB : unzip it before copying)

After copying that file to /var/smoothwall/patches/ try to open your update menu and there will be a list of updates file. Now, click advance again and browse the tar.gz file, click upload and the updates will be installed in your Smoothwall Express.

How to delete autorun.inf folder in your Flashdisk

Usually autorun.inf folder in our Flashdisk was created by antivirus such as Smadav.

This folder was created to prevent another autorun.inf file infected our flashdisk. This folder is useful and not dangerous but sometime was annoying because we cannot delete this folder like usually we did.

When we tried to delete this folder, it will always say, “cannot remove this folder” quite annoying I think. So, how to delete this folder? Maybe you can use this simple method to do it.

* Open Command Prompt

* The first step is delete aux folder by typing rmdir /s /q [drive]:\autorun.inf\con\aux\ and then press ENTER ([drive] is your Flashdisk location).

* Then delete con folder by typing rmdir /s /q [drive]:\autorun.inf\con\ and then press ENTER.

* The last step is delete autorun.inf folder itself, type rmdir /s /q [drive]:\autorun.inf\ press ENTER.

* Finally autorun.inf folder was successful deleted.

Free Top Level Domain dot TK

I recently change my second level domain dot blogspot.com to become top level domain dot TK.

What is dot TK?
Dot TK is a FREE domain registry for all websites on the Internet. It has exactly the same power as other domain extensions, but it's free! Because it's free, millions of others have been using .TK domains since 2001 - which makes .TK powerful and very recognizable.

Actually my main reason to change the domain is because i wanted to become a publisher in a certain site because that site only accepted top level domain and do not accept second level domain like blogspot and wordpress and i think every search engine also preferred top level domain than second level domain. isn't it ?

Why i choose dot TK?
i have choosen dot TK because it's Top level domain and it's free. i hadn't found another places that can offered me a free top level domain.Dot TK relates to the country of Tokelau and maybe in order to grow up it had given a free domain to millions people.

So if you want a free top level domain you can go to the website here:
Free top level domain dot TK

Cannot access firewall settings

Suddenly one of my client computers could not being accessed from the network. I thought it must be something wrong with the firewall setting so I try to open firewall setting in control panel, but every time I tried to open firewall setting it always said, ”Due to an unidentified problem, Windows cannot display Windows Firewall settings.”

What’s wrong with the firewall? It appeared because of a virus or Malware corrupts SharedAccess.reg file. The SharedAccess.reg file represents the Windows Firewall service. In this several days I indeed always try to remove some virus that infect that computer, after removing the virus it appear to effect the network sharing.

How to fix it?
Call the “Setup API InstallHinfSection” function to install Windows Firewall.

To install Windows Firewall, follow these steps:

1. Click Start, click Run, type cmd, and then click OK.

2. At the command prompt, type the following command line, and then press ENTER:

Rundll32 setupapi,InstallHinfSection Ndi-Steelhead 132 %windir%\inf\netrass.inf

3. Restart Windows,

4. Click Start, click Run, type cmd, and then click OK.

5. At the command prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER: Netsh firewall reset

6. Click Start, click Run, type firewall.cpl, and then press ENTER. In the Windows Firewall dialog box, click On (recommended), and then click OK.

Username and password not accepted in gmail pop3

We used java application to check mail programmatically from gmail. It works fine until several days ago we got some report that many users got some error when trying to check mail from gmail. The error said “username and password not accepted. Class java.mail.authenticationFailedException”.

I tried to login to gmail via browser but nothing wrong with it so what’s the problem? I begin to searching google and finally I got the answer. Because of using an application to check mail programmatically so the frequency of checking was very high so gmail use Captcha to block it.

How to solve it? Just got to Unlock Captcha fill your username and password and then unlock it. Problem is solved.
