Protocol index out of range?

Ladies and Gentlemen

I am trying to share files between a computer running Ubuntu 22.04 and an
ARMX6 running RISC OS 5.29.

I have LanMan98 v2.08 in standalone mode.

I can ping both the router and the other machine from either.

When I try to establish a share to connect to I get a message from
LanMan98 Filer 'protocol index out of range'

I am unable to translate the message into anything I can understand, and
been unable to find a reference to such a message.

I have tried with both the new TCP/IP stack (with the latest !omni), and
without it.

What does the message mean and what am I failing to do?

Many thanks

Just a couple of ideas ...
- does the Ubuntu machine accept SMB1/CIFS protocol?
- have you tried stopping Raw reads? - see !LanMan98.!Run

Your Ubuntu box will have to be set to use the ancient version 1 of SMB
to work (-o vers=1). Alternatively setup NFSd and use !Sunfish on RISC OS.
