File explorer PC files samba acces

@pierpaolo the content of the file places.conf is like this (ignore the line numbers they are from the editor):
1 [General]
2 userRemovedLocations=/home/phablet/.local/share/evolution/calendar/system, /home/phablet/.local/share/evolution/addressbook/system
3 userSavedLocations=/home/phablet/.local/share/evolution, smb://sambaservername/sharedirectoryThis works on my FP2.

Remember, this way you can only download files from computer, you can't upload anything on it.
The only way right now to do it in an easy way is to use wifitransfert. -
@keneda this is a Linux, and can be used directly...
mkdir ~/archive && mount //10.20.30.40/archive ~/archive -t cifs -o username=nobody,password=xxxxxx,rw,noexec,nosuid,noacl,iocharset=cp437,uid=32011,gid=32011,noperm,file_mode=0660,dir_mode=0770and use any application...

What are you talking about? What can be used directly?
An what "is a linux"? My PC is not.
Remember, uTouch is not only for GNU/Linux power command line users... And will not spread like you are talking about on another thread, if it is not a minimum graphical user friendly.
For dumb user like me, wifitransfert is the best actual way to tranfer any file FROM uTouch device TO computer, wireless.
-
@keneda You don't give the impression of a dumb user. On the contrary, an cool hacker, who is correcting runtime code in the RAM directly with hexeditor... at least, that is my impression.

Hey markatrafik,
maybe you can help me I'm allways gettin a mount error(95): Operation not supported when trying to mount an samba file share.
And I cant find my samba via file explorer.Marc
-
@marc123454321 If you want to mount in this way, it is better, of course, to make a script so that you do not have to type such command every time. Make sure that the username and password are correct. The command may need the root privileges, you can try to use sudo before it, also try adding yet another parameter: vers=2.0
-
@markatrafik
Hey,
Sorry for the late answer. I still font get smb working on my phone (Oneplus 3).
For mount with -o vers=2.0 im gettin a error 22 --> unknown option.
Do you have any idea how to fix that? Smb access is quiet important for me.Marc
-
Could anyone help with this problem or am I the only one having troubles using a samba share?
Marc -
@marc123454321
Honestly I never tried.SSH could be enabled given that you upload your public key to the phone.
So I'm only using SCP or MTP via USB to access my files.SAMBA is slow and unreliable from my past experience so I never tried it with Ubuntu Touch.
IIRC there is an app but it's old and maybe broken since then... -
@applee Hey,
Thanks a lot for your reply. Actually mounting via scp works but theres one problem. When i connect via vpn (using vpnc) and mount my drive, working with the file manager is horrible slow. For me its ok via cli but not for my wife :-). I tought maybe it would be faster to access via samba.
Or maybe its a problem of file manager working with high latency? Maybe its checking only one file (in a queue) per ip package or something like that.
What do you think would be a proper way for me to improve this?
Thanks in advance

@marc123454321
Humm I see
you're right, it's probably related to how the file manager is working.
The file manager does a lot of things and I think it maintains a database to index the files.
That would be an explanation for such latency while it's OK with CLI.But I don't have a solution.
Maybe using Nexcloud to sync files, but if your use case is about saving space on your mobile then it's not suitable. -
@applee Hey,
I got direct access to the server yesterday and got the same slow behaviour while browsing wit the file manager when connect as scp mount. I have normal access speed with windows and android. When i download a file I have normal connection speeds too. Its only about browsing. Do you have any idea left :-). I think i will try it with an ubuntu file manager via libertine to check.
Marc -
@marc123454321 Hey just for information. I got same slow browsing behavior with Nautilus in libertine. I can access the server in normal speed with my ubuntu laptop via scp or with windows via samba so I dont know how to fix that. Maybe some day I do not need to access via cli ;-).
Marc
