All,

I need a bit of help...I have had kodi/media/MariaDB running in a Win7 now 10 machine for years.
When a torrent ends, a curl command simply performs a database update.

I got more and more familiar with Linux and Docker thanks to Home Assistant, and decided to explore what I could do with Kodi and Maria DB.

So I deployed a second Debian VM, installed Maria DB, connected one of my Kodi, all good.
Installed Docker, OK.
Installed kodi-headless, connected it to MariaDB, all good.
Can open the WebUI, see the media etc.

But...all my sources are still in my Windows10 shares, I just can't get the Docker container to connect SMB, so obviously I can't update the library.

The Kodi log shows:

json:
13:42:07.932 T:140160872175360   ERROR: SMBDirectory->GetDirectory: Unable to open directory : 'smb://192.168.1.8/Media/Movies'

                                            unix_err:'1' error : 'Operation not permitted'

13:42:07.932 T:140160872175360   ERROR: GetDirectory - Error getting smb://192.168.1.8/Media/Movies/

13:43:38.688 T:140162106067072  NOTICE: Samba is idle. Closing the remaining connections

I tried Hostname, IP address, password on the share, no password...can't browse SMB from Docker container.

How do you guys go about this? Are there some instructions you can point me to? I have spent a couple days trying to make this work...
Thanks in Advance!!
