Samba or what? How to access folder with files?

Xywa

Hi,

In my office we use all Windows machines and everyone could easily have an access in company cloud for a folder with documents witch such address in file manager: //192.168.1.33

I was trying it in my KDE Dolphin by putting the same address, and I have an error "invalid protocol".

I got samba and cifs-utills installed, someone told me its needed, but it doesn't,t work.

What to do?

Never tested with dolphin but maybe you should enable samba use flag on kde-apps/kio-extras package

is kio-extras build with samba useflag?

That has bit me in the past, but after rebuilding smb://address works in dolphin
