SMB /appdata

[DigitalLF]

Hi!

 

I'm new around here.

 

How do access /appdata over SMB? It say's its shared as PUBLIC.

 

I'm trying to configure a docker.

Hi -

 

Well, a Docker won't use SMB - you pass a mount point directly into the Docker via the Docker configuration.  Based on your current setting you should be able to browse appdata from another PC on your network via SMB now, though.

When looking at the appdata share over the network, much of the time you're going to have problems because any particular container's permission requirements may be vastly different than what navigating over the network would expect/allow you to do.

 

Easiest way to modify a config file within appdata would be either at the command prompt (nano, mc, etc) or via a plugin like CA Config File Editor

If you have a share you can access - drop the file there and then move using your preferred method of moving files. That should work.

Additionally - those files are entirely text so you can certainly cut and paste the info directly into your preferred text editor (like nano, vi, etc mentioned above) and save it in the location you want it.
