Description SF 2012-11-06 03:31:26 UTC 
gvfs-mount smb://foo@bar.com:1000/bla

gvfs-mount currently doesn't support a custom port for smb mounts. This seems to be a trivial fix in smburi.c. It's a very useful feature when tunnelling smb over ssh.

Thanks.

Would also be very useful together with smb server apps on Android. Since you cannot use the default smb port on non-rooted devices.

I'm afraid libsmbclient can't connect to non-standard ports, the URL parsing code in libsmbclient simply ignores the port string part.

See http://git.gnome.org/browse/gvfs/commit/test?id=996f0513897816130fd50377b8093b57fd47bb41 for workaround and libsmbclient(7) manpage for the URL convention:

> smb://[[[domain:]user[:password@]]server[/share[/path[/file]]]]
