When I try to mount a Windows XP share I get this error: getlmhostsent: Ill formed hosts line [<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<] getlmhostsent: Ill formed hosts line [<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<] getlmhostsent: Ill formed hosts line [<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<] I am running kernel: Linux 2.6.8-rc2-love1 Samba: 3.0.4 I am running the command: mount /home/wendy/documents My fstab entry is: \\home-xpp\wendy /home/wendy/documents smbfs user,fmask=777,uid=1000,dmask=777,gid=100,username=mike,noauto 0 0 The mount actually works but I get the above error. Sometimes when I try to browse it using nautilus, nautilus locks up (that could be a nautilus problem). What does the error mean and how do I get rid of it? Thx
