A fix for SMB -43 errors
Authored by: willjwade on Sep 10, '03 10:15:21AM

To save us going through the install disks can you just post the file somewhere for download?

Thanks
Will.

It's likely not legal to post the file, but the location of the kext on the install disks would work.

In a similar note, I once had the Print Center application disappear from my boss' iBook. At the time I assumed that one of his kids (or he himself, being not so tech savvy) accidently deleted it, but perhaps there is something deeper going on if the smb kext also "disappeared".

I also used Pacifist to restore the Print Center from the install disks.

Isn't samba open source? I don't think it would violate any licenses to post a file for download...

It's probably in the Darwin Source somewhere, though a cursory glance didn't reveal it.

I don't have a good place to host it but here's a listing of the directory contents on a fully patched 10.2.6 machine:

ls -lF /System/Library/Extensions/smbfs.kext/Contents/*
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  833 Apr  7 21:22 /System/Library/Extensions/smbfs.kext/Contents/Info.plist
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  502 Apr  9 14:10 /System/Library/Extensions/smbfs.kext/Contents/version.plist

/System/Library/Extensions/smbfs.kext/Contents/MacOS:

I think smbfs.kext is copywrite protected. It's not part of the samba package but Apple's interface with it. Using Pacifist was to locate and istall from the OSX Install Disk 1 was pretty easy.
