SUMMARY
Hey guys, 
When I'm trying to access a share created on Windows 10 that doesn't require a
login, I'm not able to access it. 
Dolphin keeps asking me for credentials, but doesn't accept anything. I've
tried entering the username of the Linux system, the username of windows, the
PC name of the windows machine and guest. Nothing worked. 
Interestingly though, I'm able to login to a PC that is password protected,
entering the credentials there works just fine. 

It's very unlikely an issue of my samba configuration, as I can use smbclient -
L //IP/share to list the share (though it also asks me for a password, but it
accepts anything) and mount - t cifs //IP/share /mnt/share also works fine and
is then accessible via Dolphin, but this is unfortunately not a suitable
solution for me. 

I'm using Manjaro and followed this guide here that created a samba config
file: https://wiki.manjaro.org/index.php/Using_Samba_in_your_File_Manager

I think it's interesting to mention that this issue happens on Manjaro Linux,
but not on Kubuntu. 
On Kubuntu, it also asks me for credentials (which is pretty weird), but
accepts the windows pc name with any password. 
I've made sure that the systems are in the same domain. 

I've tried everything I could to rule out that it's a manjaro issue, by e.g.
copying the samba config file from Kubuntu to Manjaro, with no change in
behavior. The fact that I can mount the shares via cifs also makes me confident
that it's an issue on the KDE side.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot manjaro live media or install manjaro
2. Try to access a windows share
3. See dolphin asking you for credentials over and over

OBSERVED RESULT
No credentials are accepted 

EXPECTED RESULT
It shouldn't ask me for credentials at all or accept anything 

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
