How do I access a local network share in dolphin?
I decided to switch over to Kubuntu for a while, and I backed up my documents on a NAS connected to my local network. I was able to see it and access it in nautilus, but when I try to access it in dolphin, I see this:
Double-clicking on any of the four options does nothing, as if I didn't double-click. How do I access my files?
I don't know why nobody ever answered to this but if you're using the SMB
protocol I've got an easy solution to access your local and remote network shares.
- Right click on the Remote header in the Places panel on Dolphin
- Click on "add entry"
- Give it a name (something like "
SMB Share
") - In the "location" input, type in your SMB server location (e.g.:
smb://<ip_address>/folder
) - Choose an icon and validate
Now you should see that icon under your personal folder on the left, just click on it and you will access your network share
