like the error message says, "smbmnt must be installed suid root ....bla_bla_bla" you must change that files with suid_root_bit. b.s ----- Original Message ----- From: "geralds" <assistance@ids-ug.com> To: <samba@lists.samba.org> Sent: Tuesday, March 23, 2004 3:28 PM Subject: [Samba] samba mounting files Hi whenever i try to mount a samba share which is a samba server i get an error message that says "smbmnt must be installed suid root for direct mounts(500, 500) smbmnt failed1"
what i want is to logon a linux workstation as a user who already has an account on the linux samba server and when i go to linneighborhood i browse by filling in the username and password thereafter i mount a share and it automatically mounts. I have been able to do this on the samba server; here i can log on the samba server as a normal user and mount the shares without any problem. But now here comes an incidence where i am adding another linux workstation;SUSE; in my LAN and on mounting the shares i get problems. Hope to here from you. Thanks for the reply.

Well i have seen the site and am going to try out what they are saying. On the othe hand when i log in on the workstation as an authenticated user and i go to /homes i dont find any shares whereas on the samba server i can. So that's why i tried to use linneighborhood to try and mount the shares manually and i get the .......suid root ...... message. Thanks please.
