for me cd-ing with proper credentials works, eg. cd /media/samba/user:password@server/share

but automatically it's not mounted. tried the auth directive in smbnetfs.auth and also in smbnetfs.conf + chmod600, no success... going to make more tests...

[peti]

update: the "auth server user password" in smbnetfs.conf is working (but you need to chmod 600 that file), now I can cd the share without credentials, but it's still not automounting...

But this is a command line action. And I think some GUI support would be needed here (e.g. like the way the networkbrowser handles this).

ok, so the issue is, that the IPC$ share (here is the list of shared folders) is secured on newer OSses (I have win7), but we can use the link directive in smbnetfs.conf

so we need to enter these lines to that file and chmod 600 afterwards

 

auth 192.168.100.102 user password
link remote_pc 192.168.100.102/share

 

but, after restart it's not working, i have to start the script from init.d manually. In rc.d it exists... I enbled the logging, and after restart even the logfile is not created

performance is also not the best, maximum speed was 3MB/s in my tests

I indeed have to start the script manually after every reboot.

[peti]

modify the script in init.d like this:

/usr/bin/smbnetfs -o allow_root config=/home/root/.smb/smbnetfs.conf /media/samba

devs, can you make this change, too? at system startup it's not finding the config file...

[Rob van der Does]

Which box are you using? Important because it might explain why you don't have "fuse" which should have been integrated in your kernel.

So apparently 'fuse' isn't then in the Solo2-kernel?

That indeed does the trick.

For me, on the SH4 receiver, to see the W7 shares is enough add in the smbnetfs.conf:

show_hidden_hosts "yes"

 

Then link is not required.

great, this works for me, too

just one more thing, if there are filename encoding issues (were for me), you can add these lines:

 

samba_charset "utf-8"
local_charset "utf-8"

[Taapat]

I only set:

local_charset  "utf-8"

I do not really understand what smbnetfs used from samba. I am not specified smb.conf and everything works.

To disable warning about .smb directory, when start smbnetfs, and set default /etc, I created the patch:

I see that smbnetfs using samba library libsmbclient.so.0 but for what purpose? I would be happy that may not use the library of a size similar to the Enigma.

I have not installed  smaba, only the libraries and everything works.

I think that my next step would be to create a simple plugin to be able to browse the shares and set a password if necessary.

But I'm not really sure if this is necessary. Set the authentication in the file smbnetfs.user.conf even via ftp in my opinion is easier instead with the receiver remote.
