Can't access previous SMB shares on Windows

Help and Support

Hi,

Had set up my KODI NFS shares to be accessible on Windows 11, and all was working fine: e.g. \192.168.1.114\OneTouch. Now, it prompts for password, which is my osmc one, but is says the password is incorrect. This is the same password I can use to access Vero via Putty so am confused. Any idea?

Thanks

NFS or Samba/SMB?

Good question. Not sure as set it up ages ago. I just used the windows ‘add network location’ dialogue. Samba is enabled on the Vero, and in Windows.

That would be Samba. The Samba password and the OSMC user password can be different. Login via Putty and run smbpasswd

Retype new SMB password:

Maybe issues with the Samba Server. Upload logs via grab-logs -A and share the URL
