Hi all!
I have been looking everywhere for a Samba client :)
I read about Rumba and Sharity-Light, which seem to be the two (only?) options but couldn't find them anywhere... Could someone share them with me or point me to another option?
Thanks in advance!

PS. My NeXTstation is already connected to my NAS via NFS but I'd rather have it, like my other computers, use Samba if only for consistency ;)
Hey tygre. Not sure if this will help, but in my travels, I found something Samba related. Haven't really torn into it yet...but it might be something for you to give a try and see if it satisfies your needs.
https://www.nextcomputers.org/NeXTfiles/Software/NEXTSTEP/Apps/Network/ -- there are two
samba files there. Give 'em a try. I'd love to know if you get things working. =)

Hi Jason!
Thanks for your help :)
I had seen these archives (and similar on other sites): they include the Samba servers (smbd and nmbd) but (strangely?) not the client (smbmount). But maybe other archives elsewhere would have smbmount?
Take care!

Hey Tygre. Not a problem at all! Actually, I did some poking around in the Peanuts series of discs [also in the NeXTFiles Archive]...and on the last disc - PeanutsU, I found this little gem.
Samba [for OPENSTEP]...and it has the smbclient command you were looking for. Not sure if you're running OPENSTEP, but this may be the ticket.
Hopefully it helps.
Jason.
Hi Jason!
Thanks a lot! :)
How could I miss that! I'm going to try that out...
Cheers!
Hello NeXT Community: On the Openstep 4.2 User CD or iso NeXTCD Directory/ Packages/ is the Samba Package :)
Hi all!
I tried rumba v0.4 (it's the latest version that I could find).
As far as I understand, it uses unencrypted passwords but I couldn't make it work with Samba v4.9.5, even with the server configured to accept unencrypted passwords ::) Besides, if I set the server to use unencrypted passwords, then I cannot connect with my Amiga (or Windows) anymore.
But, I found a solution using Samba "guest" mode. The solution is to allow "bad user" to access some shares as "guest".
For the record, my config. looks like:
[global]
# Definition of the server
server role = standalone server
workgroup = GIB
dos charset = CP850
unix charset = UTF-8
# Security settings of the server
# For Amiga SMBFS clients:
ntlm auth = ntlmv1-permitted
# For NeXT Station client:
# (In short, the authentication with "rumba" always fails,
# the "bad user" is logged in as "smbuser" to access shares.
map to guest = bad user
guest account = smbuser
[Music]
path = /media/WWW/Music
writeable = yes
create mask = 0777
directory mask = 0777
[MusicRO]
# Needed for the NeXT Station
guest ok = yes
writeable = no
path = /media/WWW/Music
Now, I can access my modules and MP3 from my Amigas, Windows, and my NeXT Station ;D
Cheers!

PS. Thanks Rob! :)
