Description Markus Elfring 2022-04-25 14:34:29 UTC

SUMMARY
I would occasionally like to connect to selected storage locations which are provided by an SMB service.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Specify the desired target
smb://my_host/share_name/

OBSERVED RESULT
It gets reported that a directory would not exist.

EXPECTED RESULT
I should get asked for my credentials.
This worked for a while before.
Thus I assume that the recent update for a software like “samba-client 4.16.0” triggered special consequences (since 2022-03-24?).

I observe that the specified SMB share is still working also together with the file management tool “Thunar 4.16.11-177.3” (for example.)

Sounds like it. I would recommend you report this to the Samba folks.

* Which impressions would you get from further comparisons according to SMB support with other file management tools?

* Will any more software adjustments become relevant here?

Comment 3 Nate Graham 2022-04-25 16:45:38 UTC

No, please follow up with the smbclient folks.

Would you like to point any additional possibilities out for the determination of further background information and the clarification of software components which are currently used by Dolphin 22.04.0 according to evolving SMB support?
