Then create the file .config/dtool/dtool.json and add the SMB account using the format below:

```
{
  "DTOOL_SMB_USERNAME_jicinformatics": "<username>",
  "DTOOL_SMB_PASSWORD_jicinformatics": "<password>",
  "DTOOL_SMB_SERVER_NAME_jicinformatics": "<server-name>",
  "DTOOL_SMB_SERVER_PORT_jicinformatics": <server-port>,
