Hi, This might not be entirely samba server related, but the problem I am experiencing is affecting a planned implementation of a new Samba Server, and from the smbmount man page, it appears that this is the recommended list to reqest help - so hopefully someone might be able to assist :-). I am running a Debian Linux machine (kernel 2.6.0) with Samba 3.0.1 which will soon be replacing an

I'm having a real hair-raising problem here and I thought maybe someone could help. At least I hope so. My workstation was running 3.0.2a, upgraded to 3.0.5. After upgrading to 3.0.5, I can no longer mount shares on my 2003 server. This started happening on an upgrade to 3.0.4 as well, I might add. Permissions-wise: I own the directory mounts on the local Linux workstation,

Hi, I tried to make my Linux box smbmount a remote share originating from a Macintosh running the commercial package DAVE 2.5. The Linux box is a RedHat 6.0 with a 2.2.14 kernel (with smbfs inserted as a module) and samba-2.0.3; the iMac ran MacOS9. The directory to be shared, \\akemi\archivio, contained two files, aaa and bbb. Here's what happened: [root@sonal ~]# smbmount

>From my investigations, and searching the archives, it seems that smbfs can only mount shares, and not directories under the share i.e. smbmount //host/share /mnt works smbmount //host/share/directory /mnt doesn't work Our W2K3 server has user home directories in a tree where there are no user rights to the next node up the tree (level1), which is the directory on the share, i.e.

I posted back in January about a huge performance gap I was seeing on a gigabit network when comparing smbfs and smbclient operations. I was advised to try CIFS, which I did. I didn't make much difference and I gave up and switched to NFS. Recently, however, I noticed something odd. If I move files separately across my smbfs mount, things go MUCH faster. Here's an example. I mount my

Hi there... I want to mount a windows share automatically in fstab but I get an error When I try: mount -t smbfs //MSWinSMBServer/share /mnt/share, it works, and even when I pass options like, mount -t smbfs -o username=bcochofel,workgroup=COCHOFEL,uid=bcochofel,gid=users then, when asked, I type password... The problem is when I do this in my fstab... here's the line: //MSWinSMBServer

Hi all, I need to mount a Windows share locally on my laptop. However, I cannot do this via sudo mount -t smbfs //host_name/share_name /local_mount because the host_name has two IP addresses with it as shown by nmblookup //host_name. (That is, I try mounting and I'm given this error: mount error(115): Operation now in progress Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

I am trying to mount a Windows share on my Linux machine at boot time. I tried using the same syntax in /etc/fstab that is in /etc/mtab, but this did not work. Here is the mtab entry: //DELL-4400/linux /root/mnt/DELL-4400/linux smbfs 0 0 Barry

Ok, typing: mount -t smbfs -o username=username,password=password //Share/File /mnt worked! It loaded the contents of the folder I wanted to acces into the mnt directory. This is goad, but I would like to store them all in one directory. I tired to do a ... /mnt/directoryname but it wouldn't work. Also, how do I set things up so that Linux will automatically load this share on startup

I'm working my through the "The Unofficial Samba HOWTO" but when I tried this command: mount -t smbfs -o username=fred,password=secret //192.168.1.1/"Perrin's Documents" /mnt/smbmnt I got this error: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //192.168.1.10/Perrin's Documents, or too many mounted file systems Here are the smb related lines from my kernel

Hi there! I'm having troubles mounting a samba-share that is located on a samba 2.0.5a server (which I have no root access to). I succeded in connecting to the share with smbclient (with smbclient /server/share passwd -U user), but when I do a smbmount /server/share passwd -c "mount /mnt" -U user I only get a "input/output error" when I try to list the contents. I used

This may be sorta off topic considering this is probably regarding the linux kernel but I am hoping someone here will have the answer anyway. I am having the strangest problem when mounting a samba share with "-t cifs" as opposed to "-t smbfs" where, instead of mounting as the user I am logged in as, it is mounted as if I were logged on as a completely different user. For

Hi everybody, I want to use my samba-shared Homedirectory from my Linux-Server on my Linux-workstation. I was using smbfs until now, but since i upgraded my hardware i'm not any more able to use smbfs, i get error-messages (timeouts) in the kernel logs and I/O-Errors on the console. Having this problems i read about cifs and that's much better, nicer, sexyer and faster than smbfs.

hi, i've always been using mount -t smbfs and recently "upgraded" to mount.cifs because i have a very aggressive application which always killed the smb connection (getting timeouts, ...). my setup: * some passwordless public/guest shares * one admin share over a x-over link to be able to use the admin share i had to switch my server from "security = share" to

Hi, I have some questions concerning mounted fs on a linux system. I run redhat linux 7.3 on my laptop, and when I hook it up to a desktop Windows 2000 Pro machine, I usually mount (part of) the Windows directories onto my linux dir tree (say, it is to /mnt/samba). I use the following command: mount /mnt/samba to mount the filesystem (file /usr/bin/smbmount has suid root, so I can do
