Yeah, maybe I will ask there. However the problem is less urgent now, I could indeed mount my shares via etc/fstab as SMB V2.1! So this is the final prove that the internal smbclient of Kodi does support SMB V1 only, which makes it less and less attractive.

Quote:I'm using SAMBA shares with autofs for many many years, never had issues with that kind of configuration.

Added my own auto.videos and videos.autofs file into folder /etc/auto.master.d which does a flexible path to server share configuation. This makes (reconfiguration) of shares inside of Kodi obsolete

If I should run into problems with cifs mounts (e.g. due to the network coming up lately?) I will also switch to autofs as you suggested. But I'm already happy that I was able to map an SMB share at all.
