[Samba] Samba share to access windows folders in linux.
Hi, I am trying to access folders on a windows system on a linux system using the command, smbmount '//a.b.c.d/CCViews/abcd/abcd_Linux_dev' '/root/pqrs/LinuxDev' -o username=abcd/<domain>,uid=abcd,gid=abcd This prompts for a password and I give the correct domain password here. It gives me the error: 21896: tree connect failed: ERRDOS - ERRnosuchshare (You specified an invalid share name) However, if I try to access some other folder other than the folders under CCViews(highlighted above) on the same machine, I am able to make the samba share. (Note that CCViews is a folder having clearcase views of different people) Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Divya.

[Samba] Samba share to access windows folders in linux.
Hi, I just now got how to do it. It looks like we have to specify only until CCViews rather than specifying CCViews/abcd/abcd_Linux_dev in the command below. However, I am not sure how we can access until abcd_Linux_dev. smbmount '//a.b.c.d/CCViews/abcd/abcd_Linux_dev' '/root/pqrs/LinuxDev' -o username=abcd/<domain>,uid=abcd,gid=abcd The command gives the error: 21896: tree connect failed: ERRDOS - ERRnosuchshare (You specified an invalid share name) if a complete path is given. Anyone knows how to do it? Because, I do not want to see all the folders under CCViews, rather I want to see only those under abcd_Linux_dev.

Are you sure abcd_Linux_dev is a share?

[Samba] Samba share to access windows folders in linux.
As far as I know you can not mount a folder/dir that is not shared. In this case create a new share for abcd_Linux_dev and mount it as smbmount '//a.b.c.d/abcd_Linux_dev' '/root/pqrs/LinuxDev' -o username=abcd/<domain>,uid=abcd,gid=abcd may be I'm wrong :-) -----Original Message----- From: Divya B Sridhar [mailto:disridha@cisco.com] Sent: Wednesday, 17 November 2004 5:48 PM To: Steve Simeonidis; 'Eric Lester'; samba@lists.samba.org Subject: RE: [Samba] Samba share to access windows folders in linux. Yes Steve. All folders until abcd_Linux_dev are shared. But pls note that the subsequent folders inside this folder are not shared. But that should not matter I guess. Any other possible reason?
