A sysadmin moved a share from one Windows server to another. I am now getting error 13 when trying to mount the share from the new server. The following worked before the server was replaced: mount.cifs //ipaddress1/share1$ /mnt/share1 -o credientials/home/whatever/.smbcredentials,rw mount.cifs //ipaddress2/share2$ /mnt/share2 -o credientials/home/whatever/.smbcredentials,ro Change: server ipaddress2 was replaced with server ipaddress3 and share2$ was created on that server. mount.cifs //ipaddress1/share1$ /mnt/share1 -o credientials/home/whatever/.smbcredentials,rw Sti...

Windows users are able to mount samba share using windows. But for linux user, we need to create credentials file, to mount samba share e.g: //servername/file_store /home/user/Desktop/file_storage smbfs credentials=/root/.smbcredentials Is it possbile to change the credentials to something like windows users (for example credentials=unix user) so as the mounted share would depend on who login the linux box? This is important as I want to let user change their own password, and keeping .smbcredentials in user's home direct...

Hi, I configured a share for home-directories on my Debian Samba PDC (4.1.9) and connected the share on another linux machine (terminal server) via /etc/fstab: //192.168.10.51/home /home/DOMAIN/ cifs credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8 0 0 The .smbcredentials file contains the Domain Administrators username/password. The share is mounted successfully, however users can not log into their home directories. I configured the home share just like explained in the samba wiki (https://wiki.samba.org/...

I am somewhat confused... I understand that the preferred method to mount a Samba share with a Linux client is to use "mount -t cifs" rather than "mount -t smbfs". I get the impression that smbfs is samba.org developed code where as cifs is from elsewhere. Thus the point of confusion. Why is samba.org not developing the preferred code in this case? A sub question to that

Greetings- I am working through coming up with a Linux client integration to Samba PDC's. I mount several shares with this sort of syntax: /bin/mount -t cifs -o credentials=/home/userid/.smbcredentials,uid=userid,gid=userid,dmask=0777,fmask=0666 //ldslnx01/data /mnt/ldslnx01/data/ However when I create new files/dirs on the Samba share from the Linux workstation, the perms are not 0666/0777 as I have specified. Historically I set those perms on the share, and that has always worked with Wind...

...The technical details: Laptop runs Ubuntu Breezy, smbclient 3.0.14a-ubuntu, mount.cifs 1.6., Desktop the same. Server (named blacky) runs Debian Sarge, smbd 3.0.14a-Debian. The share is mounted in fstab with: //192.168.1.31/music /media/blacky/music cifs credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,uid=anna,gid=anna,rw,user (in one line, of course.) I couldn't find relevant information in any of the logs on server or clients (syslog, messages, samba/log.). Today I tried the solution to the timeout problem with smbfs (I used to have similar problems with smbfs between Linux boxes wh...

Hi, I installed the Samba client on Kubuntu 11.4 and set up a Samba network drive over WLAN to my QNAP NAS TS-110. Therefore, I made following entry in /etc/fstab to mount the network drive on startup. //192.168.2.200/ben /media/NAS/ben cifs credentials=/home/ben/.smbcredentials,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 Automount and write-access are working, but since then my computer hangs on shutdown with following error messages: mount error(101): Network is unreachable Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) mountall: mount /media/NAS/ben [903] terminated with s...
