Hi, this is my first post to this forum, so I hope it helps.
The problem: I can mount a windows folder to my virtual machine, but Dolphin doesn’t show it.
Here is the script that I use to mount the folder (‘boffinshare’ is the windows share folder, and ‘share’ is the linux folder):
#! /bin/bash
clear
sudo mount.cifs -o username=boffin5,uid=boffin5,gid=users //192.168.0.11/boffinshare /home/boffin5/share
echo ‘fileshare mounted’
It shows up when I enter df -h:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
devtmpfs 4.0M 0 4.0M 0% /dev
tmpfs 3.9G 0 3.9G 0% /dev/shm

//192.168.0.11/boffinshare 231G 184G 47G 80% /home/boffin5/share
And I get a response from a ping command:
boffin5@localhost:~> ping 192.168.0.11
PING 192.168.0.11 (192.168.0.11) 56(84) bytes of data.
— 192.168.0.11 ping statistics —
11 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 10224ms
But when I go to Dolphin and pick ‘network’, it says “no shared folders found”
This actually worked properly yesterday, but when I came back today, there was this problem.
What is going on here? Hoping for help …
