Same for me.
My linux kernel is 2.2.14 (Mandrake V 7.0)
Personal user disk space (for NT or LINUX) is on a SAN
(Storage Area Network), the front end server of this SAN is
an NT server. What I plan to do is to "smbmount" the home
dir of the linux accounts from a SMB share on the SAN.
Untill now smbmount doesn't work for non root user.
Error message is :
cannot mount on /mnt/smb_share: Operation not permitted
smbmnt failed: 1
mount.smbfs: ioctl failed, res=-1
Could not umount /mnt/smb_share: Invalid argument
smbmount, smbmnt have SUID bit
What permission is missing ?
Any help
Thanks
