Accessing windows shared drive.

[vishalmthakkar]

Hello,

We have deploy c# winforms application on Linux Min 16 using wine. Application access windows shared drive
\\enhserver\common\files .

When we use this path getting exception saying path not found. On net we found option smb:\\enhserver\common\files but no luck.

Local C:\ drive we are able to read and write files but network drive we are facing issues.

Kindly help us to get this solutions.

Yes there are reasons at times why stuff is not simple.

Wine does not automatically provide access to UNC paths.

\\enhserver\common\files

This is a unc path. You will have to create the correct items under the wineprefix for application to find a unc path. Please be aware of the first link. Shared access between many programs done by wine could go horribly wrong. If you have the source code of the application porting it to run native under mono might be a very good idea from stability point of view.

vishalmthakkar that link is the rough instructions. WINEPREFIX default is ~/.wine. New users it does pay to check out the user guide and the faq.
