I did the registry mods mentioned here but cannot seem to connect. I say seem to, because there's no error message.
smbclient \\\\WIN7MACHINE\\ -U myusername
smbclient \\\\WIN7MACHINE\\ -U%
smbclient \\\\WIN7MACHINE\\
All of these, with or without quotes around the share name, (and optionally asking for a password, whether I enter the correct one or not) just return me back to the bash prompt without a further message, e.g.:
/> smbclient \\\\WIN7MACHINE\\ -U myusername
Enter myusername's password:
/>
What gives? I can connect fine from XBMC. Also, smbclient -L \\win7.ip.address.here
lists all shares just fine.
If I get more specific than \\\\WIN7MACHINE\\
I get this error:
session setup failed: SUCCESS - 0
...correct password or not, and dumped back to the bash prompt.
Did you try with smbclient //WIN7MACHINE/<shared> -U user ? – None – 2014-02-17T14:30:41.870
@dcrespe, I hadn't--the docs showed backslashes. – Kev – 2014-02-19T15:26:33.510
