How to set up SMB share

How to set up SMB share

  1. Navigate to Settings > Storage
  2. Change the “Default location” to “SMB share”
  3. Enter the required details

If you’re getting a connection error:

Make sure the address is correct

It must not start with / or
It must end with the name of the share. E.g. 192.168.1.1/backups

Check your credentials again

Check the credentials. Maybe you’ve made a mistake there.

Check the server connection

Try to ping your SMB server from inside the docker container like this:

Check if the container name (GitSave) is correct in your case. Also change the IP of the SMB server.

Terminal window
docker exec GitSave ping 192.168.1.1

If you’re still getting the error

Open an issue on GitHub.
