SMB shares "function not implemented" error in camelot

ZooMigo · 2009-12-28 22:55

This isn't the beta, why did this function work in the beta and not in the release? If it aint broke, why did the break it?

Server name is the name of the machine you want to connect to.

Shared Folder is the name of the share you want to connect to. Not necessarily a folder within the share but the name of the share itself. Right click on the shared folder in Windows and go to share settings to see what the name of the share is. It defaults to the name of the folder, but can be changed.

Username and Password is the log in information of the account that has access to that share.

The only difference between the beta and Camelot is that now you are required to specify the shared folder, whereas in the beta it would list the shared folders available if you just specified the server name with username and password. Once you specify a shared folder, you can still select from the folders within that share if you choose to.

It seems like this is a bug since this feature was working fine in the betas. I often change the location of my shared folders so its nice to have the ability to browse them without having to specify the location first. Is there anything that can be done to fix this?

Had the same problem "function not implemented"

I disabled the following 2 services on my Windows 7 computer:

Homegroup Listner
Homegroup Provider

After i did that, i could browse my Windows 7 Shares.

This did not solve it for me unfortunately.

I fixed the browse //COMPUTER problem by enabling "Proposed Karmic" in Synaptic update/repo options. Then take the update for samba, smbfs and other samba/smb related apps, reboot.

eg. do: aptitude install samba libsmbclient

No more "Function not implemented" error in XBMCLive Camelot on Karmic.

(Version: 2:3.4.0-3ubuntu5.3) Was latest I upgraded to...

This problem seems to be related to Windows 7 smb as I did not have this issue at all under 2003 or XP.

If this command works and lists the shares on the win7 machine specified under WIN7PC then you solved the problem:

smbclient -L //WIN7PC/ -U yourwin7username

Without the updates, above command will fail and won't show the shares on a Win7. XP would show fine.

Now only thing left for me to figure out is how to fix the:

smbc_set_credentials_with_fallback: allocation fail

that keeps spamming the /home/xbmc/.xsession-errors file, this occurs every time you enter a smb directory
and it places huge number of entries with above string...

I 2nd that. The link above resolved the issue for me as well. Nice!

I like everyone have had this problem since beta (no issues with alpha) ... the fix for me is rather then browsing smb, I enter the source manally ...

smb://192.168.0.1/sharename

you know it's working when it challenges you for login ... I'm able to connect to windows 7 and server 2008 r2 shares ...

funny thing after my revo has sat idle for some Tim after bootup, smb browsing starts to work out of the blue ... I read on another thread that it has to do with ipv6 which makes sense and there was a thread to disable ipv6 but I never follow thru since my mapping trick works 100% for me ...
