Solved raspbmc samba problems
#1
after upgrading to gotham test builds
i was having trouble picking up my windows home server 2011 shares through SMB,
the only way i could connect was to input the server name and each folder 1 at a time which was time consuming. Sad

i ended up resolving this issue by ssh into raspbmc via putty then typing
Code:
sudo apt-get purge samba


Quote:man apt-get:

purge
purge is identical to remove except that packages are removed and
purged (any configuration files are deleted too).
then once finished used the
Code:
sudo apt-get install samba

restarted the pi using
Code:
sudo reboot
then all my windows share via smb showed up. Big Grin

hope this helps those who are having the same problems i did.
