SMBUp re-instates Samba as a service of your mac and provides a simple interface to manage the service.

NOTE: The application is donationware. A reminder will appear upon startup once a day; it can be dismissed by checking the donation checkbox. The checkbox is based on the system of honor: It won't do any verification on whether the donation has effectively been made.

Keep in mind that while the application will allow you to create users for accessing authenticated shares it will only warn if those users have more than 15 groups assigned to them,
What's New
Version 1.4.0:
  • Added additional situations where system could fail to come out of a loop when starting the service
  • Re-set System images to use PNG instead of TIFF in 10.7.4 (thanks for the heads-up, Apple! -NOT-)
  • Hence: 10.7.4 compatibility
  • Mac OS X Lion Server compatibility confirmed
  • Converted some mandatory fields into optional, as per Samba spec. Should avert some "key not found" errors
  • Fixed several interface bugs and text copy
  • Decided against adding nagscreens for donations or changing the app to crippled shareware.
  • Added a big "Thank you!" note to the donation checkbox. Donors should feel better for it :)

A life saver! When upgrading to Lion broke my connection with my WDTV Live I tried many media servers with dismal results. Was about to downgrade back to SnowLeopard when I came across this gem. Worked flawlessly from the get go and I dare say it feels even more stable than the original Samba on my Leopard OS. Thanks a lot.

I was looking for a solution to get my WDTV Live Plus box working with Lion. This worked fantastic. Dead simple setup. Thanks.

Something does not work for me. I managed the install and created the shared volumes but when I try to access them from Boxee, they with a name such as XX__MSBROWSE__XX/ and I cannot access. I get errors like Operation timed out or Could not retrieve data. These errors come very fast after the connection.

Thanks for the work anyway.

I ran it and it said i should redo samba (I did try the macports install without luck in the past) I hit ok. It downloaded something and now all i get is an application error even after restart that says: An exception of class KeyNotFoundException was not handled. The application must shut down.

Keep in mind that while the application will allow you to create users for accessing authenticated shares it will only warn if those users have more than 15 groups assigned to them, even though OS X Lion won't allow such users to authenticate properly. Make sure you edit those users' groups to reduce their number.

The application is not crippled in any way if no donation is made, although donations are appreciated as they help us continue improving the software and providing new tools :)
