Google releases a Samba client for Android

[Arthur]

Nice!

 

Download (Google Play Store)

 

This application allows users to mount an SMB file share in their Downloads/Files app in Android. That way, users can access their remote files seamlessly from their Android devices, opening, modifying, and deleting them.

 

This application is a direct port of Samba client which can be found at https://samba.org. As such, it supports the entire feature supported by Samba client.

 

This application is open-sourced under the GNU General Public License. The full source can be found at https://github.com/google/samba-documents-provider.

Apparently this app only supports smb1 at the moment (which is a bit stupid in light of recent events).

Need to modify the configuration file to allow SMB2 & SMB3.

 

For some reason libsmbclient out of the box uses maximum SMB1 protocol.
