Full Version: Adding a samba share source using ssh

I've forgot how to do it.

I ssh into /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/userdata

Then edit the sources.xml and add the following into the xml:

<source>
<name>nslu2</name>
<path pathversion="1">smb://LKG3520FB/usb2/</path>
</source>

Then I go to my ATV2 and restart it by pulling out the plug (so that it doesn't write over my sources.xml.

But when entering file mode in XBMC the new source doesn't show.

I've also tried adding the source using the menu. But for some reason it doesn't work.

Note: I already have setup movies and tv-series in the sources.xml. They are also on a samba share. So adding the new share should work. But I'm probably missing some step here.
Solved. I edited wrong XML file.
