Is there a way for macOS Finder to ‘automatically’ show Home Assistant in the Finder sidebar? I do have Samba share running on Home Assistant, and am able to manually connect to the Home Assistant ‘server’ (by entering the IP address). However, it would be very convenient if it would automatically show in Finder (like other external devices - like a NAS that also runs SMB).

Does it not even show up if adding to server favorites?
What does the config look like ?
# Home Assistant Add-on: Samba share
## Installation
Follow these steps to get the add-on installed on your system:
1. Navigate in your Home Assistant frontend to **Settings** -> **Add-ons** -> **Add-on store**.
2. Find the "Samba share" add-on and click it.
3. Click on the "INSTALL" button.
## How to use
1. In the configuration section, set a username and password.
You can specify any username and password; these are not related in any way to the login credentials you use to log in to Home Assistant or to log in to the computer with which you will use Samba share.
2. Save the configuration.
3. Start the add-on.
4. Check the add-on log output to see the result.

Seems it is not possible in the terminal because it runs in a separate container with restricted permissions.

homeassistant:
media_dirs:
media: /media
shell_command:
mount_media: 'mkdir -p /mnt/media;ln -s /mnt/media /media/;mount -t cifs -o username=.....'
And then run it from /developer-…

Hello the HA community,
I’ve got my HA OS running on a VM handled by KVM (192.168.122.241) in my Ubuntu 20.02 box (192.168.1.33).
I want to access files through samba shares. I have added the Samba add-on and all is running fine.
I can mount the HA OS shares on the host (Ubuntu) with this command:
sudo mount -o username=xxxxx,password=xxxxx //192.168.122.241/config /mnt/hass_config
where 192.168.122.241 is the IP of the VM.
So until here all is fine.
Now I want to access the shares with m…
I have HomeAssistant on VMM on Synology DS220+ i installed Samba, but on my mac i can not find Home Assistant (and as there is no other option to have access to files from HA i must have Samba).
HA is on 192.168.1.58 I don’t see my HA even when saying connect. So what could be wrong? See attachment.
