Hi- I'm working on a graphical interface to smbclient/smbmount/smbumount. As part of its operation, it will mount shares in directories under a user's home directory. I've run into a bit of a problem regarding the distributions of the mount utilities, specifically on Redhat 5.1/5.2. They are shipping an RPM with smbfs 2.0.1, which is known to have a security hole... so it should

Hello, I'm looking for some (user & technical) feedback on a change I'm considering on how mount and smbmount works together. The current way mounts are done are: mount -t smbfs ... => smbmount ... => smbmnt Possibly without the mount step. smbmount stays as a daemon and reconnects when asked (unless it crashes). Problems: - Some mount options should affect if the mount

Can't mount share on my linux boxes as a regular user. I have no trouble mounting shares as root. This problem occurs on both my linux boxes. All the commands I show I have run as a regular user. Here is all the data I have: smbmount \\\\JHAMMER6\\public /mnt/NetWork/JHAMMER6/public/ -o debug=6 mount.smbfs started (version 2.0.7) Initialising global parameters params.c:pm_process() -

Hello, I have found a solution on an other news group : uk.comp.os.linux There is a set of messages with the subject "Ordinary user to mount SAMBA share" You can read the content of that uk.comp.os.linux group through the web, the URL is http://x35.deja.com In one of the message the author wrote "After, further test. I find smbmount, unlike mount, requires the user owns the

Hi, This is imacat from Taiwan. I tried to compile samba 3.0.21a, but failed. I searched the Google with no return. (Strange. Nobody encounter this same problem before?) Could anyone help? Thank you. My build environment is: Debian 3.1r1 Sarge, Linux 2.6.14.5, gcc 4.0.2, glibc 2.3.5. Please tell me if more information is required. imacat@rinse samba-3.0.21a/source % ./configure

Hi, I'm trying to build samba 2.0.5a on Red Hat 5.2. It originally came with 1.9something, which seemed to have some bugs accessing large mounted directories. I downloaded Red Hat's updates package, but unfortunately it only comes with smbclient and smbd, and what I need is smbmount and smbumount. My binaries from my more recent systems (RH6 and OL2.2) won't run due to

Hello all This patch tries to remove a few bugs from smbmount. It would be nice to get some testing+feedback on this from others using smbmount and possibly get these things fixed for the next release of samba. It does the following: * Change lib/debug.c to allow changing your mind on being interactive. A second call to setup_logging should now replace the effects of a previous call. (hmm,

Hi all i have downloaded samba 3.0.21c.tar.gz and trying to install on Redhat enterprise Linux 4 with kernel version 2.6.9-5 smp , i tried samba with following options. and while doing make it's giving error. ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/samba-3c --bindir=/usr/local/samba-3c/bin --sbindir=/usr/local/samba-3c/sbin --libexec=/usr/local/samba-3c/libexec --datadir=/usr/local/samba-3c/share

Hi, I don't know why smbmount doesn't work. My samba version is 3.0.0. Remote server (192.168.1.1) is running samba 3.0.0 too. Both are linux machines. 1) If I try to mount a existing share i get this /usr/local/samba/bin/smbmount //192.168.1.1/PAVFN /monta added interface ip=192.168.1.200 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Password: smbfs/init_mount: execv of smbmnt failed.

Hi! I have a new machine on a network: kemmer: New Linux box (kernel 2.0.36. Samba 1.9.18p10) torres: old Linux box (kernel 2.0.36. Samba 1.9.18p10) janeway: Windows NT 4.0 SP4. torres and janeway are performing flawlessly, I can access both machine's shares from the other one. kemmer is new and can't access DNS yet. Thus, I have to use the -I switch to smbclient and smbmount to access

I posted a similar email recently regarding this. One thing has changed, however; I have upgraded my kernel to 2.2.6 (hence I'm now using the samba version of smbmount rather than the smbfs version). I get the error "no such device" when trying to mount a network drive. My command line is: smbmount "\\\\susangra\\c-hd" -c 'mount /mnt' the console text which

I have a problem mounting Samba shares with recent mount packages from RedHat and Samba packages from samba site. I have tried samba-2.2.4 RPM and samba-2.2.5 (built for RH7.2). In all cases mount fails if I use RH mount package version > 2.11b (current is 2.11n). If I also use Samba packages (2.2.4) from RedHat Rawhide - everyhting works Here is detailed description I have submitted to RH

Hi, I am deploying samba for an embedded system. The requirement is that the system should be able to mount windows share points. I believe "smbmount, smbumount and smbmnt" components are needed to do the same. I am not very clear about smbmnt though! I find that smbmount, smbumount and smbmnt are all quite huge. Around 300 to 400Kb each. I understand that Samba is capable of doing

Hi, I'm trying to have a program automate getting a browse list via smbclient -L. I am having a problem with the way it handles passwords. For example, if I run: smbclient -L SERVER Then it prompts for a password. I can just press enter and it will show the shares and browse list. However, if I then try, smbclient -N -L SERVER it gives me access denied. Is there a difference between

Hi all, I am trying to cross compile samba version 2.2.12 to an ARM platform (kernel 2.4.20) using arm-tools chain 3.4.2. I get the smbmount compiled, however, when I want to mount a directory that is located in a Windows XP PC, I get the following message: WARNING: The "strip dot"option is deprecated unrecognized character set handle_source_env: Failed to open file , Error was

Hi ! The O'Reilly "Using Samba" book, recommend not to include smbmount support as it is for Linux only: "This feature wasn't being maintained at the time the book was written, so the Samba team made it an optional feature and provided smbwrapper instead. The smbwrapper feature works on more Unix platforms than smbmount, so you'll usually want to use --with-smbwrapper

Hi- I'm having problems getting Samba to authenticate to an NT server, which is a PDC.

Hi I'm using Debian woody. ii smbfs 2.2.3a-12.3 mount and umount commands for the smbfs... I want to mount a W2K share as user. Mount as root works fine.
