Entering 'domain' information when connecting to SAMBA share in Dolphin

Question

openSUSE 11.2. KDE 4.3.5 Dolphin 1.3

The following works on CL

mount -v -o username=abcdefg,domain=DOM -t cifs //server.tld/share/path  /mnt

Authentication fails when trying to connect to this share via Dolphin. "domain=DOM" is a required field. How do I force dolphin to connect to it?

On Dolphin, the following fails:

smb://[email protected]/server/path

Solution

Try:

smb://DOM%[email protected]/server/path

(%5C is the URL encoding of the backslash character)

It also worked by just typing in "dom\abcdefg" as my username when the dialog prompt opened.
