SOLVED Mount Samba
-
Hi,
Filemanager greys out "+" for Network, neither did I find any pre-installed or available at Store apps to access Samba shares.
What is the expected app for Ubports OS to mount (mount, not just like smbclient in Android) Samba shares?

@mrt10001 thank you for the reference, in fact it does not provide any solution I wanted, so I ended up with creating a full chroot with debootstrap, running smbnetfs there, and symlinking into necessary shares from /home/phablet/Downloads/shares, so that everything is accessible from default filemanager with no unlocking

@ygrex
Could your provide what you did step by step embeded in code tag so that any other user can use your workaround without having your knowledge ?

@keneda I do not have a complete solution for everyone, just what I did:
export LD_PRELOAD=(libtls-padding.socauses unexpected things)- boostrap chroot filesystem as per https://wiki.debian.org/Debootstrap
- mount /proc and /sys, bind mount /run/dbus (optional for smbnetfs) and /dev (fuse there)
- chroot in with 3003 (and optionally 3004) supplementary groups
- add apt_ user to 3003 (and probably 3004) groups
- edit /etc/resolv.conf with nameserver of preference
- install smbnetfs with apt-get, configure as per https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Smbnetfs (I only needed auth line)
- mount smbfs in chrooted environment with allow_others option
- on a host filesystem as a phablet user create a symlink under Downloads (any folder accessible by filemanager without unlocking is fine) to the required share(s)
