@rjd324 
 
changes for an upcoming 2.23, which should introduce some utf-8 stuff but were delayed and/or missing important parts, were reversed and the original 2.22 was made more robust and released. 
 
the date of the binary stayed the same, but the release dropped on 12/9/2024 
 
also: 
smbfs 2.22 (9.3.2019) 
 
- The memory pool initialization should have happened after having 
initialized the command line argument data, not before it. 
 
- I broke the automatic device name ("smbfs0:" .. "smbfs99:") initialization 
at some point. Ouch :-(  The revised code now starts with "smbfs:", then 
tries "smbfs0:" through "smbfs99:" until it has picked a unique file 
system device name. This is consistent with the old behaviour of trying 
to use "smbfs:" if no device specific name has been requested.

9.3.2019. Okay, I guess it was just delayed.

I was having the same troubles with this version. I am currently using the 68k version 1.117 from aminet: 
http://aminet.net/package/comm/tcp/smbfs-68k_1.117 
 
And this works very well indeed (for me). Also writing to my Synology NAS works as excpected. Maybe somebody could do a PPC version 1.117, that would be great!

Hello, same as others : writing to a Samba partition freezes.

If I try to write data on my mounted Synology Diskstation OS4 is freezing. 
Reading and download is no problem.

Something's very wrong here. Yes, it's much faster, and the annoying error with Context Menus is gone. However, whenever I try and write data to my network drive, it only writes and 16k and then stops.

smbfs?  What's this.. could have it been updated?  could it support Windows 7 shares?  I'm happy to report YES to both accounts!  Thank you Olaf and thank you to the MorphOS team for the assist.  Happy Happy Happy, Joy Joy Joy! 
 
Oh, and it's much faster now too.

With the recent announcement that Apple have removed the open source Samba implementation from their OS - I can no longer access shares under Mac OS X Lion.  I have tried giving the SMB share a password in OS X system preferences and supply SMBFS with this password, but it simply returns error message - 61 - connection refused. 
Any ideas?

Are there any improvements planed? Download is really fast (getting 1 MB/s on Amiga 4000T) but upload is incredible slow (less than 200 kb/s).

this was SO easy to setup! I setup the share on the PC, plugged in the values 
into my smbfs script, and it got it working in 2 minutes... thank you for this 
great utility.
