After upgrading to Lion, my NTFS shared folders are no longer accessible. I can see the shared folder, but when I try to enter from Windows 7 box it says
Windows cannot access \\path\\to\\usbsharedresourceEven BOOTCAMP partition which was shared and working now inaccessible...
Macbook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.4)
OK. Just check after removing MacFUSE the access permissions under system preferences.
Same problem even when removing MacFUSE. Access rights - everyone RO.
Let me ask you something. let's take for example your Bootcamp partition. You share the Bootcamp partition as whole or particular folders on it ? Also for the external NTFS drives. Are you sharing the entire drive or folders ?
Now you mentioned Everyone previously. Do you acces the shares as Everyone or as named user ?
I tried sharing both - from partition root or particular folder. Same result. It is true for Bootcamp as well as externally hooked up NTFS HDD.
Hmm.. "Everyone" does not imply to particular user as far as I know. I am accessing shares as named user. Again, it is worth to mention that in Snow Leopard, the same resources were accessible to same windows 7 box with same user.
I assume you alredy tried again to set up the shares on teh Windows machine. What happens if you directly try to acces the drives/folders using your Macs IP address kind of (eaxmple): \\192.168.123.124\myshare
Of course you have to replace 192.168.123.124 with the IP address of your mac
Same if I access it by first browsing all shares from root.
I'm not sure what you mean by setting up shares again. I do browse OSX IP by \\192.168.0.25
I mean that you "disconnect" the "shared" disk from Windows 7. Then remove all shared folders form MAC OS X and set up everything again from teh scratch. I assume you for sure checked if your Mac has teh above stated IP address.
I am not mounting shared resources in Windows 7.
Yes, that's the IP for Lion. With this IP non-NTFS shares are available.
OK, looks like I am experiencing the very sam problem. All NTFS, FAT and exFAT Shares do not work.
I have all of them on external USB drives. All HPFS shares do work great independent where these are located
(means internal Macintosh HD or external drives). I tried to access the share from a Windows 7 Laptop. I booted my Mac in 32 and 64 Bit kernel mode but without any difference. I mean I have paragon NTFS 9.01 but this does not seem to make any influence since FAT and exFAT is also affected.
Finally I don't feel so alone...
What's weird is that if Apple used their own implementation of SMB for Lion - and this implementation breaks shared NTFS resources - why does it break connections to a Lion hosted SMB shared NTFS resource - from a Lion client?!
Do the SMB server and client mismatch or something?! ***
I can (almost) understand Windows based machines not being able to access, but Lion to Lion not working is straight up poor form.
Having the exact same problem. Should I enter a request at apple.com/feedback as well, i.e. do they respond faster to more requests? Or just wait for someone to hopefully post a solution here.
The more we write, the faster we will bring their attention to this.

Recommend everyone who is experiencing this issue to do the same.
Can't access NTFS shared folders any more
