-smb option requires full path for Samba sharing to work
Status in QEMU:
Expired
Bug description:
This issue has been reported on qemu-devel a looong time ago:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2005-12/msg00141.html
QEMU version 2.2.1-4 on Arch Linux x86_64
Steps to reproduce:
host$ mkdir share
host$ chmod o+rwx share
host$ qemu <other options> -smb share
vm$ smbclient //10.0.2.4/qemu -N
smbclient: Can't load /etc/samba/smb.conf - run testparm to debug it
Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Windows 6.1] Server=[Samba 4.2.1]
tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME
vm$ poweroff
Workaround:
host$ qemu <other options> -smb /full/path/to/share
vm$ $ smbclient //10.0.2.4/qemu -N
smbclient: Can't load /etc/samba/smb.conf - run testparm to debug it

Please, please fix this gotcha, whether in the documentation or in
code. it can cause some serious bouts of hair-pulling.
