Not to mention that before last week he was whining that it was impossible to

 Please don't call the Apple ecosystem a "walled garden" when it's really
more like a subterranean cavern, unlike the real world in almost every way.
 

Now that we have PROVED to him that it easy to do, he has to whine about file
names?  What does he expect?  Picture of Arlen at the beach.jpg?
IMG-3769275.jpg is a "better" name?

 I wonder if you realize how many millions of people have "whined" about the
idiotic way Apple iOS does the file naming on their photos files Tyrone?
 

And look how long it took him to accept the FACT that the iOS SMB server
worked!  He admitted to "googling furiously" to prove that we were wrong. It
never occurred to him to DL the fucking app and TRY IT!

 First off, I didn't say it didn't work - I said I didn't think nix-based
systems allowed 3rd-party apps to bind to privileged ports, and, I said
that I couldn't find any documentation saying iOS could - and - let's be
clear - neither could you - and neither could anyone find that
documentation.

Actually, you REPEATEDLY claimed it COULD NOT POSSIBLY work.
Because you KNEW how iOS had to behave.

 So the only way to prove that it worked was to try it out, but what you
don't understand is believing you Apple trolls is like believing that
Charles Manson didn't do it - even as many still insist he's innocent.
 It's a shock that you Apple trolls have ever been right, as you Apple
trolls still insist on imaginary iOS functionality day in and day out.
 Do I need to list all the claims Jolly Roger & nospam have made for
example, where even in the past week Jolly Roger insisted iTunes backs up
his IPA's off of his iOS device when that is impossible.
 

NOW he is whining about not getting a drive letter assigned in Windows when he
connects to the iOS SMB server. But of course it works when conecting to
Android. As if the server you are connecting to controls the drive letter in
the client (Windows in this case).

 I supplied images. I tried it. You didn't try it. You're just guessing.
 What you're suggesting is to use a *different* mapping mechanism.
You don't even realize the discrepancy.
 It might work with that different mapping.
But that's now how it has to work with WebDAV.
 For the record, I will try the mapping using the *DIFFERENT* mechanism that
you suggest, but that doesn't change the fact that "net use" didn't do it.
 (You'd think they "should" give the same results but they well may not.)

You are SUCH an idiot:
I just turned on "LAN drive" again, and then did the command:
"C:\Users\Alan>net use e: \iPhone16\DCIM"
