Hi, Problem: I want a normal user to mount a Windows share. Therfor I created a "device"-icon on his desktop and inserted a line in fstab: //karin/KARIN-D /home/hartmut/karin-d smbfs noauto,user,exec,rw 0 0 and everything worked fine with Suse 7.3. I don?t know which smb-version they had. Now with Suse 9.0 (smbd -V gives 2.2.8a-Suse) it works not: only root can do! Or otherwise: "smbmount must not run in suid-mode". Root can mount the share, but why not a normal user. It even does not work with username%password and so on ... I didn?t find anything in newsgroups and on samba.org. Do you know, how it is done? Best regards Hartmut Krummrei
Hi Sambatistas, if have setup a ldap pdc which works realy nice. Connected over vpn i wanna setup a bdc with an ldap slave as recommended in the docs. My question is should this ldap slave strict read only ?. I thought about passwords , as i enabled the ldap password sync. If the con is interrupted and there is only the slave what happens if a user wants to change his password? Should i strictly forbid such actions to the slave from the bdc, so that it is read only or is ther a way to configure ldap slave in setup to synchronize the written changes to his master after the connect to the master is up again. I know this is more related to ldap question but any recommends are welcome Best Regards

Do you know, how it is done?what happens when you (as a normal user) enter: mount /home/hartmut/karin-d You should add username=...,password=.. to the line in /etc/fstab.

There is no way that I know of (and I am no expert in LDAP) to successfully permit write operations to a slave that are cached and sent to the master without leaving the LDAP realm. Craig
