Hey Thushar, thanks for filling out the issue properly. :)

The tricky thing with this library is that it can be very finicky depending on the device. CN you please try setting some breakpoints through the code and seeing what sort of error the server is returning?

[tnavadiya]

Ok, I will try to find out exact bug and will let you know.

[TimOliver]

Cool! Thanks! In the meantime, I just tested the latest version incorporating libdsm 0.2.8 on my MacBook Pro running Sierra 102.12.6 and was able to authenticate successfully with my Mac's username and password.

I'm hoping there might be some edge case in the authentication logic that you're hitting up against. If that's the case, we can probably fix it.

If not, then it might be an issue in libdsm itself.

Hi, Authentication works with local credentials. But not if I have to use domain credentials.
I had tried with domain/username and also username@domain. Let me know if you have any idea about it.

[TimOliver]

Sorry for the delay!

Ahhhhh okay. I think we had this problem with the domain needing to be explicitly set before. I was still working out in which way it should be exposed in the API.

I'll try and fix it soon!

[vipsss]

is there any updates on this issue?

[beks6]

@vipsss issue #49 will give u a workaround to solve this problem
@TimOliver i think you can merge these two issues as it's the same problem/bug

[vipsss]

@beks6 thanks for your replay. but problem is what I follow instructions from issue 49. set domain name as host and ip address and still get authentication error

[beks6]

I‘m not sure if I understand you correctly.

Your approach should be

hostName = domain
ipAddress = 192.168.0.1 (or whatever IP your server uses)

[vipsss]

@beks6 another question
We had network with domain controller. We try connect to windows machine located in domain, for it we use hostName = domain and ipAddress = 192.168.0.10. it works and we can get shared files from this machine. But we can’t connect directly to domain server. We had shared files on this server, but can’t access to files located on this domain server. App every time return authentication error. What a problem can be?

[beks6]

To me it seems like you are missing user credentials.
