Olé!

Nice! Thanks!

I am already using it, trying to debug my AmiModRadio :great

A nice update!

Thank you Thomas :great

Great news!

I don't have much experience with SnoopDOS. Is there a way to increase the target name field over 99 characters? I want to see what commands SMBmounter GUI is generating, but they're longer than 99 characters :(

This is a compile time limit, you cannot increase it rom the user side. I believe if you want to check for such long strings, it may be better to use a debugger (such as COP) and set a breakpoint in the corresponding function. Or probably check with Olaf how the commands are constructed.

Curious, is this still from the original author of SnoopDOS?

In the end I managed to retrieve it from SnoopDOS by just providing less parameters :)

It seems my NAS' hostname was too long for the old smbfs. Fortunately, against my expectation, SMBMounter also worked with smbfs 2.22 for me and that did work with my hostname.

No, updates have been made by Thomas (who posted in this very thread) and other people with Eddy Carrol's approvement.

Ahh thanks for clarifying, snoopDos has always been amazing and ive really missed it when transitioning from Amiga to PC for troubleshooting.

Slightly off-topic but Process Monitor is the equivalent on Windows systems.

A little late, but you can run SMBMounter from the command line with the debug argument and it will output lots of stuff to the shell, including the command lines constructed. It will include the plain-text passwords as well if used, so bear that in mind if passing that information on in any way.

Not as easy to use as SnoopDOS.

You sure about that? You install/unpack it and run. It brings up the Filter window, which you can cancel, and it immediately begins searching for system calls. This is the exact same process as SnoopDOS.

Want more control, such as only looking at specific processes? Filter, like I have done for winuae.exe (as well as a bunch of other processes that I've excluded that I don't like to see in my results):

Want to only look at registry access? File access? Network? Play with these icons.

And much more. It's significantly more powerful than SnoopDOS, and just as easy to use especially considering how much more Windows does than Workbench. It's silly to say it's not as easy.

thanks, didnt realise process monitor would log missing files etc., ill check as i have used it in the past to free up resources( processes hanging locking resources )

On PC there were the excellent "FileMon" and "RegMon" then replaced by Process Monitor
