    <para>You can either launch &smb4k; from the K menu or from <ulink url="https://userbase.kde.org/Plasma/Krunner">&krunner;</ulink> by typing <userinput><command>smb4k</command></userinput>. &smb4k; comes with a <link linkend="plasmoid">&plasmoid;</link> for better desktop integration. It can be added as widget to the desktop or panel.</para>

    <note>
      <para>If you are using &Samba; version 4.7 or above, you most likely have to change a setting in &Samba;'s configuration file to make browsing work. Have a look at the <link linkend="special_remarks_problems_browsing_samba_47">Special Remarks</link> section to find out what has to be adjusted.</para>
    </note>

    <para>If the system is missing some of the programs &smb4k; needs to operate properly, it notifies the user:</para>

      Using Smb4K : Main Window 
  -->

  <sect1 id="mainwindow_overview">
    <title>The Main Window</title>
  
    <para>On the first start-up, the main window of &smb4k; looks similar to the one shown below. The network neighborhood browser (<guilabel>Network Neighborhood</guilabel>) and the mounted shares view (<guilabel>Mounted Shares</guilabel>) are arranged in a tab widget. Above them the menubar and toolbar are located. Below them you find the status bar.</para>
    
    <screenshot id="mainwindow_overview_screenshot">
      <screeninfo>Screenshot of the main window</screeninfo>
      <mediaobject>
        <imageobject><imagedata fileref="main_window.png" format="PNG" /></imageobject>
        <textobject><phrase>The main window</phrase></textobject>
      </mediaobject>
    </screenshot>

    <para>&smb4k; comes with a toolbar that contains some of the main actions, like <guimenuitem>Configure &smb4k;</guimenuitem> and <guimenuitem>Quit</guimenuitem>. It also dynamically loads the actions of the dock widget that currently has got the focus. For additional information, please have a look at the sections discussing the <link linkend="network_neighborhood_browser">network neighborhood browser</link> and <link linkend="shares_view">mounted shares view</link>.</para>
    <para>The status bar gives some information about the current status of &smb4k;. If the application is processing a user request (&eg; mounting a share), a descriptive message is displayed in the leftmost section and a progress bar is shown with a busy indicator. The two icons on the right hand side indicate if there are shares mounted (network folder icon) and the status of the authentication system (wallet or key icon).</para>
    <para>If the dock widgets are arranged as tabs, the user gets additional visual feedback. Each time a share is mounted or unmounted, the <guilabel>Mounted Shares</guilabel> tab is highlighted for a few seconds.</para>
    <para>The main window is highly configurable. You can hide or show all tabbed widgets (<menuchoice><guimenu>Settings</guimenu><guimenuitem>Dock Widgets</guimenuitem></menuchoice>). They can also be dragged around with the mouse and docked to different areas in the main window. You can even detach them from the main window. The status bar and the toolbars can be hidden/shown by toggling the menu entry <menuchoice><guimenu>Settings</guimenu><guimenuitem>Show Statusbar</guimenuitem></menuchoice> and the ones under <menuchoice><guimenu>Settings</guimenu><guimenuitem>Toolbars Shown</guimenuitem></menuchoice>, respectively.</para>

  <sect1 id="network_neighborhood_browser">
    <title>The Network Neighborhood Browser</title>

    <para>The interaction with the network neighborhood is done with the <guilabel>Network Neighborhood</guilabel> browser. It contains all network items &#8212; &ie; workgroups, servers, and shares &#8212; &smb4k; was able to find. They are organized in a network tree, and you can navigate through it by either clicking the control next to the item name or by executing the item itself.</para>
    <para>In the network tree, the master browser of each workgroup or domain is highlighted by blue font color. Mounted shares are marked with the respective folder icon and an italic font.</para>

    <para>The selection of multiple network items is supported. So, it is possible to &eg; mount or preview several shares at once.</para>

  -->

    <sect2 id="network_neighborhood_browser_browsing">
      <title>Browsing</title>

      <para>&smb4k; automatically scans the network neighborhood for active workgroups and domains on start-up and presents them in the network neighborhood browser. Opening a workgroup item shows the servers belonging to it. If you want to access the shares of one of the servers, you have to open the desired server.</para>
      <para>&smb4k; uses a traditional scan mode, where initially only workgroups and domains are looked up and scans are only made when necessary &#8212; &ie; when you execute a network item &#8212;.</para>
      <para>There is also the possibility to wake up sleeping servers prior to scanning the network neighborhood (Wake-On-LAN). If this feature is enabled, &smb4k; sends a magic package to each server that is to be woken up and waits the defined time until it starts the lookup of the workgroups and domains. The Wake-On-LAN setting can be turned on in the <link linkend="configuration_page_network_wake_on_lan">configuration dialog</link>. The servers that should to be woken up have to be defined in the <link linkend="network_neighborhood_browser_defining_custom_options">Custom Options</link> dialog.</para>

      <title>Searching</title>
      
      <para>To search the network neighborhood for shares that contain a certain search item, execute the <menuchoice><shortcut><keycombo action="simul">&Ctrl; <keycap>F</keycap></keycombo></shortcut><guimenuitem>Search</guimenuitem></menuchoice> action (see also the <link linkend="network_neighborhood_browser_actions_popup_menu">Actions an Popup Menu</link> section below).

      <para>Enter the search term in the line edit and press the &Enter; key or click the <guibutton>Search</guibutton> button. &smb4k; starts to search the entire network neighborhood. When the search finished, all shares matching the search term are highlighted (selected). If you would like to do something with <emphasis>all</emphasis> discovered shares (&eg; mount or preview), you can immediately do this now. Otherwise, you can use the <guibutton>Up</guibutton> and <guibutton>Down</guibutton> buttons to jump to the individual search results. The <guibutton>Clear</guibutton> button can be used to clear the search. To close the search toolbar, press the <guibutton>Close</guibutton> button.</para>

It can be opened by clicking the <guimenuitem>Edit Bookmarks</guimenuitem> entry in the <guilabel>Bookmarks</guilabel> menu or the <guimenuitem>Edit</guimenuitem> action in the <guilabel>Bookmarks</guilabel> tab of the &plasmoid;.</para>

      <para>In the tree view, the bookmarks are arranged according to the groups they belong to. Bookmarks without groups are located at the top level. To rearrange bookmarks, the tree view offers drag and drop capabilities, so that you can move bookmarks around using the mouse.</para>
      <para>If you want to edit a bookmark, you can do so by selecting it. The stored label, login, IP address and group name appear in the input widgets and become editable. In most cases, you do not need to touch the IP address and the login, because &smb4k; stored the correct values at the time you bookmarked the share. However, if the server got a different IP address (&eg; because DHCP is used on your local network) or your login changed, these entries should be adjusted. With the label you can give each bookmark a custom description. It will be used for display <emphasis>instead</emphasis> of the location, but this can be changed in the <link linkend="configuration_page_user_interface_main_window">configuration dialog</link>. The group entry, finally, helps you to organize your bookmarks. Especially if you use &eg; your notebook at home and at work, and you do not want to use <link linkend="profiles">profiles</link>, it might be a good idea to create two groups "Home" and "Work" and save the bookmarks accordingly.</para>
      <para>The tree view also offers a popup menu containing the following three actions. They can be used to add groups or remove groups and/or bookmarks.</para>

            <para>Define how read and write requests are handled. In case you choose to not cache file data at all, the client never utilizes the cache for normal reads and writes. It always accesses the server directly to satisfy a read or write request. If you choose to follow the &CIFS;/SMB2 protocol strictly, the cache is only trusted if the client holds an oplock. If the client does not hold an oplock, then the client bypasses the cache and accesses the server directly to satisfy a read or write request. Choosing to allow loose caching semantics can sometimes provide better performance on the expense of cache coherency. This option might cause data corruption, if several clients access the same set of files on the server at the same time. Because of this, the strict cache mode is recommended.</para>

              <para>Set the MD4 checksum seed to the integer NUM. This 4 byte checksum seed is included in each block and file MD4 checksum calculation. By default the checksum seed is generated by the server and defaults to the current time(). This option is used to set a specific checksum seed, which is useful for applications that want repeatable block and file checksums, or in the case where the user wants a more random checksum seed. Note that setting NUM to 0 causes rsync to use the default of  time() for checksum seed.</para>

              <para>This forces the sender to checksum every regular file using a 128-bit MD4 checksum. It does this during the initial file system scan as it builds the list of all available files. The receiver then checksums its version of each file (if it exists and  it  has  the  same  size as its sender-side counterpart) in order to decide which files  need  to  be  updated: files with either a changed size or a changed checksum are selected for transfer. Since this whole-file checksumming of  all files on both sides of the connection occurs in addition to the automatic checksum verifications that occur during a file's transfer, this option can be quite slow.</para>
