Hello everybody,
for a few days i am trying to establish a Wireguard connection with SMB access to Unraid Nas shares.
I followed the Libreelec Wireguard Wiki to set everything up and i do get a connection with Wireguard,
when i try now to connect to the SMB shares it keeps on asking for the password and the password input is red.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks in advance
Configure /storage/.kodi/userdata/sources.xml and /storage/.kodi/userdata/passwords.xml manually and use password auth on the SMB shares. I have three WireGuard tunnels active and a local NAS, and no issues accessing my SMB shares.
Still the same, one time it said no connection to network server.
When i use the connection on my Linux Mint with Wireguird i get the connection and am able to access all Network shares over the internet.
Accessing shares over the Internet? .. I think you need to explain the topology of things better.
I am connecting via Wireguard into a Fritzbox over the Internet to access my shares on the distant Network provided by 2 Nas server.
This works flawless from my Desktop PC running Linux Mint and connecting with Wireguird and connecting the shares with my filebrowser.
I am able to connect to that network with Libreelec via Wireguard but am not able to connect nor access the shares.
K22/LE13 nightlies contain changes to the Kodi SMB client that might be interesting. First you can select SMBv2 without large MTU support (which likely isn't helpful to a remote connection). You can also fiddle with the SMB read chunk size; as smaller is likely to work better on a remote connection. It may also be worth experimenting with smbclient at OS level (locally mounting a remote filesystem using systemd mounts) instead of using the SMB client.
