Description

Hi,
in hostname, I input either local IP address or hostname. In both cases, it doesn't work, anyway. Port, I leave it as is. Path, I provide no path. Username? Are we talking about the one that would be supplied by, e.g. echo $USER? Then, afterwards, I supply password. Of course, SMB share is well activated on the Mac and is accessible from other devices. Unfortunately, Material Files peristenty refuses to connect to the Mac. Every time I tap connect button, I've got a little pop-up showing an error. I've got a Java AccessDeniedException error. Too bad! It'd have been very convenient for me.
