@nuwonda ah, you're talking about being unable to connect to the Samba _server_ in LE, ie. OSX can't connect to LE (rather than LE can't connect to OSX).

Since #0515 the LE Samba Server only accepts connections that are SMB2 or better. Your options are (in ascending order of preference):
1) configure OSX to negotiate connections better than NT1. On a regular Linux/Unix machine you'd do this by adding "client max protocol = SMB3" in $HOME/.smb/smb.conf. This does require the version of Samba on OSX >= 4.1.0
2) alternatively, on LE run "cp /storage/.config/samba.conf.sample /storage/.config/samba.conf" and comment out "server min protocol = SMB2" by adding a # at the beginning of the line (or change SMB2 to NT1). You accept the increased security risk this change brings.

Thanks! I tried smbup and got smb3 installed on the mac but i still can't connect to libreelec, I checked if maybe the old smb was still running somewhere but all plists point to the new one, so not sure what else I could do there.
The # commenting out didn't work either, nor did the NT1.

Since it's just for copying over the builds I might as well just do it via sftp, unless I can dl the nightly builds directly via some plugin from within libreelec maybe?
