SMBMounter Updated to v0.2
« on: June 14, 2011, 01:15:32 PM »
News from Daedalus via amigaworld.net

It's been over a year since the initial release, but I finally got my act together and implemented some bug fixes and new features that people had been looking for. SMBMounter is a commodity GUI frontend for SMBFS, and can be used for mounting, unmounting and editing network drives quickly and easily.

I've submitted it to Aminet and OS4Depot, but you can also get it on my website:

All feedback is appreciated! Especially MorphOS users, as IIRC there was a bug that only showed up on MorphOS which prevented it from working, and I'd like to hear if it's now working properly.

New features include:
- User-definable font settings
- Passwords are now stored encrypted and are only displayed as they are entered
- Support for filesystem charset translation via SMBFS
- New "automount" feature to mount shares as soon as SMBMounter starts (very useful for WBStartup use!)
- User/password prompt for Quickmount shares, and as an option in normal shares
- "Unmount all" option added to Project menu
- Improved error handling and requester information

SMBMounter has been tested under OS4.1 and OS3.9 and works fine so far...

@rdolores
I'm afraid it's 68k only, so until AROS has fully transparent 68k emulation à la AOS4 and MorphOS, it won't work :( It's written in AmiBlitz, and AFAIK there isn't any way to recompile it for AROS.

It won't be of much use anyway because it's only a GUI. First you need a port of SMBFS.

Oh, I didn't even realise there wasn't a port of SMBFS for AROS... Guess that should come first indeed!

Yep - well, it's an issue with SMBFS rather than SMBMounter. Something changed in the SMB protocol with Vista, so SMBFS doesn't work with Vista or 7 unfortunately, either from the command line or with this front-end. It would be great to hear if anyone has a work-around, but so far I haven't come across one.
