Samba share on docker host is working but I can't see inside docker container

1

Hi, I add samba share on host to /share/volumes/smb folder using this turtorial:
LINK

And is working ok.

smb_on_host
smb_on_host753Ă—47 9.49 KB

But when I go to docker container I can find only local folder /share/volumes/smb.
no_smb_in_docker_container

I also added this in addon config.json file:
settings_in_addon_config_json_file

But no joy:(

You haven’t provided too much information in your post, but after you mount the cifs share on your host, you need to start your docker container with the volume mapping (-v HOSTVOL:CONTAINERVOL)

Docker config and container config should not need any escalations to do this.

thx for reply,

This is addon I made.

In addon config.json file I added:
"map": ["share:rw"],

So I can see “share” folder in container and I can see folder in witch I add smba share.

On host I have access to files inside samba share /share/volumes/smb, Inside container I can’t access files. Folder is empty.

Apologies, but it looks as though you’re having problems at too basic of a level for me to diagnose or help. For example, if you mount the directory when running with -v /share/volumes/smb:/share, you will be able to access the folder in the container as /share. If you cannot, then you’re running into a configuration/permissions issue on your host mount or container configuration.

The problem is that protection mode was enabled. Now is working:)
