Hi all,
I'm new to Linux and at the moment am trying to get basic network services
up and running on my test box.
I created a share on my NT box, providing read access to everyone.
I've mounted the NT share on my RedHat Linux box at mount point /mnt/test.
When I try to view the contents of this directory I keep getting the
following error: ls: .: Input/output error
I've tried creating the mount in linuxconf but it doesn't show up in the
GUI
interface. I've also tried smbmount to no avail. It does however show up in
the listing when I run mount.
I have to admit that I'm really enjoying the Linux learning experience and
would really appreciate any pointers/links that you could recomend,
particuarly in the following areas:
Integration with NT domain security
Novell access and integration
Your experiences with NDS for Linux
Thanks a million,

Do you get any messages in the kernel log? (dmesg or /var/log/messages) Which samba version? Which linux version? What command do you use to mount it? Any strange output from the mount command? There are a number of problems with smbfs/smbmount that all give an Input/Output error.> I've tried creating the mount in linuxconf but it doesn't show up in the GUI > interface.

'mount' shows what is written in /etc/mtab, which is not necessarily the same as what is actually mounted. Someone has reported problems where smbmount appears to have updated /etc/mtab and then failed. /Urban
