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.

'lo all Im wondering if anyone is getting the same problem with smbfs as i am with the 2.2.x kernels when i try to smbmount a share i get the following on the screen "SMBFS: need mount version 6" and also on the telnet shell or actual shell "mount error: Invalid argument Please look at smbmount's manual page...." the mans have nothing i revert back to 2.0.x and it

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. 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.

hi ya samba-gurus..

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

This is the list of problems I had with samba-2.0.6 so far. Can anyone tell me if he can reproduce them and if he considers them as problems? 2.0.6 on linux 2.2.13 or 2.0.33 1) sighup/log reopening doesn't always work: connections that are already active keep logging to the old logs; logrotate rotates/zip the logs and samba stops logging completely till restart. 2) Localized chars.

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.

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 ---

I wish to mount a Win95 share on my linux machine. I can use smbclient to get to the shared disk, using this format: smbclient //win95.machine/share <password> The win95.machine is listed in my /etc/hosts file. I've tried every permutation of the smbmount syntax that I've been able to find in the documentation, dejanews, or this mailing list. Perhaps I've missed some. I

Hi, Thanks for answering my question on the new smbmount not working. I tried all variety of combinations on the commands you suggested, but they all simply do this: % smbmount -c //server/share 'mount /mnt/samba-share -n CLIENT -U user' Usage: smbmount service <password> [-p port] [-d debuglevel] [-l log] Version 2.0.3 -p port connect to the specified port

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

I continue to have the same problems in Samba 2.0.6 with smbfs that I was seeing in 2.0.5: (1) After a mount (mount -t smbfs etc.), the volume is often not yet fully mounted. For instance, if I write a Perl script like: system('mount -t smbfs -o password=pwd //MACHINE/SHARE /mnt/machine_share'); system('find /mnt/machine_share > find.out'); the 'find' may not find

Hi all, I just released Samba 2.0.7pre2, available from : ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha/samba-2.0.7pre2.tar.gz This is the second snapshot of the code that should become the official Samba 2.0.7 and is feature complete (ie. I'm only going to accept bug fixes, not more features). This is *not* production code, but should work well as a file and print server, and contains fixes for all

I have a problem with smbmount. I have a linux server running E-Smith (or Mitel SME server as it is now) which is basically a cut down version of RedHat 7.0 (running Kernel 2.2.19-7.0.8smp). Samba version is 2.0.10. We are connecting to an NT server (service pack 3 - I must upgrade that sometime soon). We have quite a good tapedrive and backup software (3rd party) on the E-Smith server, whereas

I've just released a snapshot of 2.0.6 in the alpha directory on samba.org. This is intended for testing to make sure some of the recent changes work well on a wider range of sites. I have also built a RedHat Linux 6.X RPM and put it in the same dircetory. If you are not running a mission critical site then we would appreciate feedback on this snapshot.
