Thanks, but no thanks. This is a bug that I expect WD to fix. I have spent more than enough time on it already.
Hate to be the bearer of bad news but there is no bug in the WDTV Live networking for them to fix. The box runs linux and uses the standard linux network libraries and programs found in millions of devices and computers. It has the same file system support, same network code , same chipset for the interface as a linux pc.
The only thing I can think of they could do would be to make the smb.conf editable by the user so people could change things like workgroup names. Other than that there really isn’t much that will fix the situation for people who have a windows networked home. People are just going to have to learn that windows isn’'t the only way of doing things.
