How to connect to a SMB Server not bint on port 445 ?

SMB Protocol uses TCP port 445 by default.
On the server side, some OS (like Android non ROOTed) doesn't allow the use of ports lower than 1024.
On the client side, some OS (like Windows) doesn't allow the use of other ports than 445.
You probably want to change the network ports of LANdrive to make it work with NON-ROOTED Android or to work on Windows or XBOXOne, or to have multiple SMB Servers on the same devices.

Windows

Connect with Windows Explorer (Windows 10)

• 1. Install Windows Subsystem Linux

  Open PowerShell then type wsl --install then Install Ubuntu

• 2. Mount Directory

  1. Launch WSL : Windows Key + "Ubuntu" and launch the app, it opens a terminal
  2. If SMB dependencies are not installed (they aren't after the installation of WSL) on your Ubuntu : sudo apt install nfs-common && sudo apt install cifs-utils
  3. Create a directory : sudo mkdir /mnt/landrive
  4. Mount it to the ip server + port : sudo mount -t cifs //REPLACE_BY_YOUR_LANDRIVE_SERVER_IP/LANdrive /mnt/landrive -o port=HERE_THE_PORT_PROBABLY_1445
  5. Read the man for other options like username password etc.

• 3. Explore with explorer.exe

  1. Change the current direcory to /mnt/landrive
  2. Launch explorer from this point : explorer.exe . (don't forget the dot after .exe)
  3. It will open the Windows explorer here \\wsl$\Ubuntu\mnt\landrive and you can do everything you want !
  4. Note : you can also explore all your Ubuntu directories from \\wsl$\Ubuntu, nice !

• 4. Close the connection

  When you doesn't need the mount anymore : sudo umount /mnt/landrive

• Troubleshooting

  If you have any weird error like "Stale file", be sure you've installed dependencies at Step 2.

Connect with Windows Explorer (All other Windows versions)

• Disclamer

  This is the most wanted feature and it's a little bit complex when your Android device is not ROOT. With Windows Explorer you unfortunately can't connect to a special port like \\devicename:port, it's stucked on port TCP 445. And that's why you'll need a port forwarder (on Windows there's no port forwarder like the powerfull Unix iptables, you'll need a 3rd app...). You'll need 5 minutes to install and configure.

• 1. Install the port forwarder

  There's not so much good port forwarder (maybe only this one!), Windows embed netsh but it can't work on port already opened and works only with TCP. I found a good software from Verigio company (I'm not affiliated with this company) named Multi Port Forwarder which work like a charm for our needs and doesn't break the actual SMB implementation (it has a 30 days TRIAL, feel free to buy it after the trial period, it's a great tool - and again i'm not affiliated). Download it and install it (a reboot is needed to activate the driver)

  WARNING : Version greater than 6.10 has bugs, I recommand to use MultiPortForwarder 6.10 version. You can download it here

• 2. Configure the port forwarder

  The rules we will implement :

  • Rewrite outgoing TCP packets to ip-phone:445 become ip-phone:1445
  • Cloning outgoing UDP packets to any:137 become any:1137
  • Cloning outgoing UDP packets to any:138 become any:1138
  Note: We clone the UDP packets to not break the actual network discovery.
  

  A. Add UDP RULES

  • Click the Add Rule button

    

  • Add the cloning UDP 137 to 1137

    

  • Add the cloning UDP 138 to 1138

    

  B. Add TCP RULES

  • Click the Add Rule button

    

  • Add the rewrite TCP 445 to 1445
    Don't forget to change the IP address by the IP of your device (you can find it below the big green START button in the app)

    

  C. Activate the rules

  • Click the checkboxes to activate each rules

    

  D. Save the rules

  • Save the rules to a file (or it will be lost when you close the app)

    

• 3. Enjoy LANdrive

  • Go back to Explorer in the network places, and enjoy LANdrive :) !

    

Connect with LANdrive for Windows10

Download LANdrive on Windows Store. LANdrive also have a powerfull client which allows connections to any ports.
It autodetects TCP ports 1445,2445,3445 and UDP ports 1137,2137,3137 by default (you can change this in the settings of the app). You can also add a new connection with custom TCP and UDP ports (use the Add button)

iPhone - iPad

Connect with LANdrive for iOS

Download LANdrive on Apple Store. LANdrive also have a powerfull client which allows connections to any ports.
It autodetects TCP ports 1445,2445,3445 and UDP ports 1137,2137,3137 by default (you can change this in the settings of the app). You can also add a new connection with custom TCP and UDP ports (use the Add button)

Android

Connect with LANdrive for Android

Download LANdrive on Google Play Store. LANdrive also have a powerfull client which allows connections to any ports.
It autodetects TCP ports 1445,2445,3445 and UDP ports 1137,2137,3137 by default (you can change this in the settings of the app). You can also add a new connection with custom TCP and UDP ports (use the Add button)

Mac

Connect with Finder - Mac OS Sierra (10.12) and later

1. In Finder, in the top menu "Go" => "Connect to server" (or shortcut CMD+K)
2. Connect to smb://devicename:port/ (only if Netbios is UDP 137 on server) or smb://ip:port/
3. Example : smb://192.168.1.10:1445/

Connect with Finder - Before Mac OS Sierra (10.12) and earlier

1. In Finder, in the top menu "Go" => "Connect to server" (or shortcut CMD+K)
2. Connect to smb://devicename:port/share (only if Netbios is UDP 137 on server) or smb://ip:port/share
3. Example : smb://192.168.1.10:1445/LANdrive
4. Don't forget the share name LANdrive or any other share created, it will not work without a share (smb://192.168.1.10:1445/ will not work)
5. Why can't I connect to the server smb://192.168.1.10:1445/ to get the list of shares ? There's a bug on MAC OS X, it tries to connect on TCP port 445 to enum the sharings (even when you specify the port...)

Linux

Mount

1. Open terminal
2. If SMB dependencies are not installed on your Linux Debian: sudo apt install nfs-common && sudo apt install cifs-utils
3. Create a directory : mkdir /mnt/landrive
4. Mount it to the ip server + port : mount -t cifs //192.168.1.26/Landrive /mnt/landrive -o port=1445
5. Read the man for other options like username password etc.

Connect with File Manager

1. In File, Go to "+ Other Locations"
2. Connect to smb://devicename:port/ (only if Netbios is UDP 137 on server) or smb://ip:port/
3. Example : smb://192.168.1.10:1445/
4. If it doesn't work try with a sharename like : smb://192.168.1.10:1445/LANdrive

XBOxOne - Windows Mobile 10

Connect with LANdrive for Windows 10
