No more Samba connection to Win10

With the latest Linux (OS) update with date 31.08.2021 I can't get a Samba connection anymore.
Does anyone have a similar problem or can help me?

Do you mean you the mister won't autoconnect on power on or do you mean you can't connect at all even running cifs_mount again?

Mine stopped loading cifs_mount.sh at startup. Turns out one of the linux updates last week the way init.d works was changed and there's now a separate file, /media/fat/linux/user-startup.sh, is used to run start-up scripts.

My user-startup.sh contains the following:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh

echo "***" $1 "***"
/media/fat/Scripts/cifs_mount.sh
However, if your issue is that you can't connect to any Windows share when you try to run cifs_mount again after start up, I'm not sure what that could be. =(

I have the same issue too. Running cifs_mount doesn't seem to make any difference. If I try and connect to the Mister via IP address instead, then it prompts for a username/password.

The Linux update reset everything to default.
Login root
PW 1
You'll have to enter your cifs settings again, samba info etc on the Mister side.

Mount the games folder on the NAS (cifs) for the Mister works.
Mount the fat directory on the Mister for Win10 dosn't work.

It confused me also after the MiSTer OS update.
