Hi,
since some weeks (after a smbclient update), KDE dolphin cannot access shares of a Win10PC in the local network via URLs like “smb://@/”.
Access to a LinuxPC running samba server with such URLs still works fine, als the NAS function of the FritzBox can accessed via “smb://fritz.box”.
Any hints, why Dolphin (or smbclient?) cannot access Win10 (latest patched version 21H2) any more?
Another reason why I use cifs with systemd-mounts or Smb4K. The former, especially, bypasses bugs in KDE.
This reminds me of the other KDE bug in which you must select and apply a setting in order to use another setting, because this “ritual” properly resets the config file behind-the-scenes.[1]
