Running Applications requiring SMB support

Post by hattyliu88 »

Hi,
I am trying to run a console application on Wine that requires remote shared folder access (Its a proprietary patch management tool).
I am running into a bunch of RPC errors. Is this supported at all in Wine.
Can I get it to work with some native windows DLLs. Please excuse me if my information is incomplete. Would be happy to provide any information required.
Thank You,
Heather

If it just needs to access UNC paths - you can configure them manually (see user documentation for how to do that).

But if it attempts to connect to remote shares - no this is not supported and most likely won't be supported for a long time. This is what SAMBA is for...
