i only need the option in php

Did you add it to the php.ini of php73?

Like is mentioned in this thread I found:

Smbclient is not installed

I had this very same problem and this is what I did to solve it. Firstly my server is running CentOS Linux release 7.6.1810 (Core) I’m using Nextcloud 18.03 PHP 7.2w and Nginx as the webserver Now if you don’t already have it you’ll need the gcc compiler - yum install gcc -y Next you need...

check the manual of user laoistom.

In your case the php.ini would be located in:
/usr/local/php73/lib/php.ini

You have to restart php-fpm73 after making any changes.

yes i tried to follow that but cant figure out where to put the enabled option and before i break something and have to go back 4 hours into the time (Backup)

You can't break things if nothing is broken yet by just adding the extension to the php.in file.

Just ad this line to the php.ini I mentioned, you can add it at the bottom of the php.ini:
extensions=smbclient.so
then issue the restart command:
systemctl restart php-fpm73
this enables it.

It won't work or you get issues? Only thing you have to do is to remove that line from the php.ini and restart service again and you're back to where you are now, so no 4 hours of work needed.

ok so i added it but the message keeps there i guess its harder to enable?

Please don't quote full posts. It keep things more clear and I know what I've written.

No it should be enabled now. If it's not then probably nowadays it needs to be done differently.

You say "the message keeps there". What exactly is the message?
Also, if you put a phpinfo.php in that account and look at it, doesn't the smbclient show up in there?
You installed the smbclient via pecl?
