Title: NetDrive 3.1.5
Post by: rdunkle on July 22, 2016, 09:25:31 am
I saw the the release of NetDrive 3.1.5 and the SFTP plugin.  I am now able to connect and work with files on my FreeBSD 10.3 server.  This is great since we do not have a Samba 4.x client for ECS.  The NetDrive client appears useful and stable.  NetDrive can use direct login or a ssh keyfile.

Hi Richard,

I saw the the release of NetDrive 3.1.5 and the SFTP plugin.  I am now able to connect and work with files on my FreeBSD 10.3 server.  This is great since we do not have a Samba 4.x client for ECS.  The NetDrive client appears useful and stable.  NetDrive can use direct login or a ssh keyfile.

A Samba 4.x client is in development for OS/2. Is there anything in particular that the Samba 3.x client from http://trac.netlabs.org/samba doesn't do for you that you need?

Cheers,

Paul

The 3.x client is unable to authenticate to a 4.x server.  I think there was a major change in the security level.
