OK, this is driving me bonkers so if anyone has any insight I'd really appreciate it.
I have an uNSLUng NSLU NAS (it wasn't unslung when I started this project!). The shares are accessible from my XP & Ubuntu clients.
I've followed the HowTo on accessing Windows shares on the N800 using CIFS. I can see my directories (sweet!) yet File Manager reports "Unable to open files" when I try to display the contents of those folders. It'll list the files, but they're all grey and unclickable.
The account I've specified in fstab works from the other network clients.
SMBBrowser refuses to mount the shares even though it creates the mount point directory. I used the same user\pass as the XP clients.
I think the last thing I'll try is Twonky but I just don't understand why the current setup doesn't do it.
Anyone got any stunningly bright ideas?
Thanks
NM
this is an example of how I mounted things after loading cifs.ko

Hey Brendan
It's the SMBbrowser from the garage;
https://garage.maemo.org/projects/smbbrowser/
You have to get smbfs as well - https://garage.maemo.org/frs/shownot...release_id=132 has instructions

hmm, maybe that's why I've had no luck with smbbrowser - I too am using a N800 
For some reason I thought it was OK to use on the N800. Oh well.

i know that the smbclient and smbserver packages were never ported for the n800, and the cifs.ko work around was put in to cover the functionality.
i did get the cifs.ko method to work *once*, and since then, i have had no luck. i will have to hack a little more to see if i am using the wrong parameters or what.

I have updated my N800 to the new OS2007. I have fetched the cifs kernel module from http://handhelds.org/~fanoush/maemo/...06.51-6.tar.gz. This is not up to date with the new kernel. Still I could insmod without a problem. Both lsmod and cat /proc/filesystems show the module cifs "alive". Then I used the command
mount -t cifs -o user=*,password=* //ip-addr/share /mount-point
This gives me access to a Linux-samba share and a Win-XPSP2 share.
I do not need the samba packages. The cifs.ko is enough. There is some confusion wrt. smb and cifs :-(
