Hi,
Does anyone have any idea how i can get CIFS working with my OSX SMB Server? I have probably tried every option and keep getting an invalid argument.
I set up my IP as xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/Downloads and the mount point as mnt/cifs/Downloads, put in my login and pass but the thing just won't connect. Im running OSX Lion and this is driving me crazy. Is there some secret setting that I'm overlooking? Some special **** that needs to be done to get the phone to see my Mac??
Im running KingCobra v1.3 (Rogers ShooterU stock kernel w/ CIFS support).
Im hoping someone with some more experience can help me out.
Also want to point out that ES File Explorer can connect to the SMB Server and stream from it just fine. Only issue is that i would like to use CIFS to mount this drive so i can play my 3D Movies with the stock player as if they were on my phone.
Thanks.
alright, I'm getting really frustrated with this, webtop is pretty much doing everything I need it to, aside from connecting over local networks to Windows based file systems.
I have an unlocked bootloader, rooted, running stock ROM with faux 1.3 ghz kernel (which should add CIPs support right? or is that just for android?), webtop2sd running xfce4 with gigolo trying to connect to windows shares, and it is just not working. I cant even get gigolo to connect to an FTP server (hosted on a windows machine), much less connect to an actual shared windows folder. It said comes up saying "Failed to mount windows share" or something of that nature.
At this point, I'm willing to pay some cold hard paypal if someone can help me out here, because this can totally replace my laptop if this can get working.
I dont know what the problem is, but I do know that the samba-common package is broke. I'm not sure if that is related to the problem or not.
Webtop can be a real headache!
You mean CIFS support, right? Not CIPS support. CIFS is related to Samba implementation. If this is what you are needing you may have not found anything if you were searching for the wrong acronym.
Here is a post about CIFS support in another forum.

By the way what Rom are you using? And are you using Webtop2sd?
I really like the Darkside 4.2 rom but I cannot get Webtop2sd to recognize my partitions.

lol.yeah,wrong acronym, I am a pretty big linux nub
im using stock ROM, with webtop2sd like I said in my initial post...
EDIT - just double checked, the faux kernel I have has CIFS support, so I am still at a loss what the issue is. I do have a couple theories though:
1. The broken samba-common package is still causing a problem
2. How do I know that the programs trying to connect to shares locally, are connected via the wifi,and not trying to connect via the 3G? As an example, if I have a server on 192.168.2.37, could the program be looking on the internet for that address over the 3G instead locally over the wifi?
so if ES File Explorer on my phone in mobile view can connect to both FTP and Windows share servers, why cant the webtop connect to either?
*bump*
My offer still stands, if someone can help me get the webtop linux to connect to either windows file shares or at least an FTP server, I will be more than willing to donate some money via paypal.
have you checked out CifsManager linked by faux on his kernel thread?

Thats an andoid app. Esfile explorer works on android too, i am able to connect to both windows shares and ftp servers
But i am looking for webtop linux to do that instead, which it doesnt seem to want to do
Hi all,
I begin with compilation and development with kernel for mobiles devices and specially with touchpad.
I tried to use my touchpad like a "micro" server (like i could do with raspberry pi), then i installed ubuntu 12.10 with this topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1304475
I installed ubuntu 12.10 and use CalcProgrammer1 kernel (uImage.Ubuntu), it works great for what i want to do...
But now i would add cifs support because the kernel doesn't support it..
I tried to recompile Bodden sources but, the touchscreen support and freedreno drivers isn't supported...
Then, i tried a last thing: compile Bodden sources, make modules, cifs.ko
Now, i have cifs.ko but, when i try to load it with CalcProgrammer1 kernel with insmod, il load successfully (i see it with lsmod) but when i try to mount anything with "mount.cifs" or "mount -t cifs" i will crash and reboot directly after i enter the password...
My knowledge isn't very good with that, and i don't know if i can compile cifs.ko with bodden source, use CalcProgrammer1 kernel and load cifs.ko with insmod..
Thank you very much :highfive:
hi,
i've installed dorimanx-kernel on stock 4.0.3 (rootet). i want to mount my samba-shares in android. this works very good with my xperia tablet z (not with dorimanx). i've installed dorimanx 7.5 and stweaks and i've enabled the cifs module in stweaks. but i can't mount shares with cifsmanager or mountmanager. both apps tell my "no such device". is there a trick to mount shares with galaxy s2?
piere
i want to mount smb shares using cifs modules... but those are not present in stock rom. where can i get them ?
OR is there any easy working way to mount samba shares ?
we can browse with ES explore but its not fully functional !
