[Note: This has been posted to linux-kernel and was ignored. Since smbfs is maintained by the samba team, I am retrying here] Hi! To maintain and install packages from CD-ROM to my Debian/GNU Linux system, I use Debian's apt package. Since my Linux box is stowed away in a closet, I use an smbfs mount to mount the CD-ROM drive from my Windows desktop machine to the Linux box. This used to

I'm not sure if this has already be answered, but when I try to mount something using smbmount I get an error that smbfs needs mount version 6. I am running kernel 2.2.16-3 I was running 2.2.14-5.0 and I was still having the same problem. Is there a fix to this. Or is it a bug. I have not been able to find any documentation on the exact problem, just other people with the same problem.

Hi. Trying to compile linux 2.3.1 fs/smbfs/inode.c seemed to have a parse error, missing a semi-colon. Here is the patch for it. You were listed as the maintainer for smbfs.

The smbmount man page states that the kernel must support the smbfs file system for ambmount to function. I've been unable to determine whether Solaris8 supports smbfs. I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who has some experience here. Regards, Rick Wightman rwightman@agfor.nb.ca

hi ya samba-gurus.. I'm currently using Linux-2.0.35 to backup NT boxes... linux-2.0.35 + smbmount-2.0.1 works find for things like smbmount //NT/C /NT_mnt ...etc... find /NT_mnt -mtime -1 | tar zcvf /backup/foo.tgz -T - but it fails miserabley on linux-2.2.5 w/ smbmount-2.0.x w/ smbd-2.0.3 ( smbmount from smbfs and samba-2.0.3 ) - some linux programs will change all your time stamps on

Hello, smbmount from smbfsx-2.04b-1 kernel 2.2.7 I got a little problem with smbfs. Everything works fine, but sometimes i get doubled directory entries (not all of them). I turned debug on in smbfs and it looks that the doubled items come from NT server (4.0 server SP5 (PDC)). Listing from smbclient is fine. Here is an example from ls -l on smb share: -rw-rw---- 1 root samba 848

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

Dudes and/or Dudettes: HEEELLLPPP! (such a newbie statement) I can't get my remote SMB mounts to work on my Linux box. duke was happily running Slackware Linux 2.0.36 and Samba 1.9.18p8 . I upgraded to Linux 2.2.0pre9 (2.2.0final), which seemed to require upgrading to Samba 2.0.0 . (I don't remember the exact errors) Now i can't get my NT and '95 disks to stay mounted on

Hello all! I didn't see anyone else reply to this, but I also didn't see anything show up on the OpenSSH development list (Cc'ed here). There is a patch call out right now for the pending release of 2.4.0. I'm wondering if anyone is aware of this and if it's already been covered in 2.4.0?

Can someone explain why smbmount under Samba-2.0.3 (compiled under GNU/Linux Slackware, kernel 2.2.5, egcc 2.90.29) compiles smbmount, however, when I run smbmount, it's really smbclient? If I can't use smbmount, then I can't mount my NT server. smbsh isn't worth crap, it always segfaults on me. I'm running libc5.5.46. Can anyone help me? "There are 3 things to remember

Hello, I?m having trouble with smbmount & WinNT 4.0 SP 4 Workstation. Mounting shares on NT from Linux as root is no problem, but if I try to mount shares as a normal user, the directory I want to mount the share, becomes gid root and cannot be accessed by a normal user. Is there any configuration to do for this like setting permissions in smb.conf ? Thanks in advance Andreas Klein ---

Hi, Thanks for answering my question on the new smbmount not working.

Hi all, Hope this isn't off-topic, but I thought the lists might be interested in a video interview I did with Eben Moglen, the head of the Software Freedom Law Center. Eben has given legal advice and help for Samba for many years, and is a very interesting person to listen to. Hope people find this enjoyable: http://google-opensource.blogspot.com/2012/07/geek-time-with-eben-moglen.html

I finally got access to some machines with more resources than the free VMware ESXi license allows which pushed me into trying kvm instead. Seems capable enough for what I need and can even import and run the existing vmdk images I already have. But, I have some questions about accessing the virt-manager console remotely for initial configuration, etc.. Normally I use freenx for remote GUI

Greetings, I've read reports that there has been degradation in Internet traffic over the last month. Until today, I haven't experienced any. However, getting bank record data from chase.com here in NYC seems impossible. I also noticed erratic ftp behavior today; connections can be made but data can't be transferred. This isn't consistent, though. (I have a machine in LA while
