thank you very much for your contribution! indeed, your changes make sense however this needs proper testing in different scenarios before merging, but unfortunately I neither have an SMB setup nor enough time to do this at the moment :/

@ufozone simply "accepting" the PR doesn't really help here, because I don't know what this "accepting" is based on. Instead please test it as much as possible and explain what you tested in detail :)
