Sep 1, 2016 3:21 AM in response to Samplexby chanyunsang3,Dear Samplex
I am glad to solve your problem as an software engineer. Firstly, i have found that OS X El Capitan seems to appear some bugs or glitches related to the SMB connection. As you may notice that AFP connection is perform more stable and faster and Apple Mac does not natively support SMB protocol. Currently, Apple's Developers is now working on those bugs. Therefore, i have a few solution for you:
1. Use APF connection instead of SMB connection
2. Use FTP or CIFF connection
3. Downgrade from OS X El Capitan to OS X Yosemite ( This option is the most preferred as OS X 10.10 is more stable than El Capitan. )
Last but not least, whatever you succeeded or not please notice me and i will help you to figure that out.
Sincerely,
Ethan The PC Guy

Sep 20, 2016 7:49 AM in response to Samplexby thierry 8p,We're also experiencing such problem... worse, no connectivity at all.
- All windows computers in the office can connect
- All mac computers in the office can connect. EXCEPT the two single computers updated to El Capitan.
All the El Capitan computers can:
- reach the local samba server as the can get authenticated (Wrong password is refused)
- get authenticated
- see the available shares in the connection window.
But... after selecting the share
- the process dialog never ends.
- Finder needs to be relaunched eventually to get rid of the dialog.
- We never see the files.
I tried everything in this thread (AFP, CIFS, changing /etc/nsmb.conf, ). No luck.
For what it's worth, the two ElCapitan computers can SMB together.
