I make quite a lot of use of smbclient from the command line so I was very pleased to see this article. However, when I tried out his first suggestion of using konqueror to join my network neighbourhood I got this message when I typed smb:/ into the Location field. I've googled this error message but not really got anything useful. I am using Konqueror 3.1.1 on KDE 3.1.5 and Kernel 2.2.20.

"An error occured while loading smb:/:
Could not start process Unable to create io-slave:
klauncher said: Error loading 'kio_smb'."

solved on my system by ensuring that libsmbclient.so (installed to /usr/local/samba/lib/ by make install of samba from source) was symlinked from /usr/lib/

ldd of kio_smb.so was how I figured it out - there was a dynamic link dependency reporting "Not found".
Needed a symlink as libsmbclient.so.0 btw.

Thanks.

libsmbclient.so.0 was not found in my case.

# locate kio_smb.so
/usr/lib/kde3/kio_smb.so
# ldd /usr/lib/kde3/kio_smb.so|grep 'not f'
libsmbclient.so.0 => not found
# yum -y install libsmbclient

Check that you have kio_smb i

Check that you have kio_smb io-slave. There was reported an error with samba 3.0.8, that kdebase would not compile samba support. The same happens if you do not have samba on your system.

Could it be that you need another slash (/) at the end of the line? eg: smb://

I'd suggest that you would upgrade your KDE setup, it's quite old.

It's possible, that your samba libraries (libsmb) are not compatible with kio_smb -ioslave.

Red Hat White Paper: Using an Open Source Framework to Catch the Bad Guy

Built-in forensics, incident response, and security with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6

Every security policy provides guidance and requirements for ensuring adequate protection of information and data, as well as high-level technical and administrative security requirements for a system in a given environment. Traditionally, providing security for a system focuses on the confidentiality of the information on it. However, protecting the data integrity and system and data availability is just as important. For example, when processing United States intelligence information, there are three attributes that require protection: confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
