I was wondering, is it possible to save to a SAMBA share from a script (assuming it's writable of course)?

I'm working on a script that downloads files and would not like to save to the xbox HD. I used the dialog.browse to get to a SAMBA share... but urllib.urlretrieve didn't like that destination.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

the only way i was able to do this with larger files was with the httpapi. smb.py/nmb.py failed with files above 12MB.

You need to save it locally then copy it to the samba share.
