similar to: umount 'crashes' after smbmount i/o error

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, when I try to mount a share on my windows pc using smbmount it says that it needs mount version 6, but my mount came fron util- linux and it's version is 2.9.... I also noticed that the smbmount and smbumount files in the samba 2.0.0 package don't get compiled... Can someone help me? I'm running slackware 3.6 with kernel 2.0.0- pre7... Nils ------- LINUX... A manly sort of

I've got a win98 laptop and a linux box. On my linux box, I smbmount a directory from the laptop. Alas, win98 boxes crash a lot, and I move the laptop a lot... to and from work. If the laptop crashes or if I move it with a shared directory mounted on my linux box, that mount gets "Stuck".... it's present in /etc/mtab but when I cd to it and do an ls it says: 243 emily ~>ls

I use samba in a very limited application to mount smb shares using smbmount. I have a simple script I use that mounts several shares to a variety of mount points as a specific user on my system. The script passes username, password, share, mount point, domain information to each call to smbmount. This script worked perfectly under redhat 8.0 but since upgrading to redhat 9 I have had some

Has anyone out there had success with smbmount smbumount and solaris 7? If so, please let me know how you installed it; ideally, I'd like to add it using pkgadd. So far I only have smbclient working. Thanks, Kevin

I am moving FROM: RH EL AS 3.0, Kernel is 2.1.21-4, Samba is 3.0.0-14.3E (This is what came with the RH distribution) TO: Fedora Core 5 Kernel is 2.6.16-1.2122_FC5 Samba is 3.0.22-1.fc5 (Both kernel and samba have been upgraded from the distribution.) I can't find the smbmount (or smbumount) command. I am running VMWare and want to be able to move files between the host

Hello, I have a RedHat 7.3 workstation and have created a samba mount to my samba server. Everything seems to be working ok, but when I reboot my RH workstation the mount is not reestablished. I believe the problem is that when I reboot the machine the samba share is not unmounted. After rebooting the machine when I run smbstatus on the samba server it indicates the mount is still active.

Hi all, this is the situation: two linux servers mounting a samba share from each other. Sometimes one of the two share becomes locked, I mean that everything I try to do on it results in an "Input/Output error". I'm then unable to umount the share, since either smbumount or umount report "device or resource busy". Unluckily I cannot check if this is the case, since the

Hello, while playing with new jail features, I recognized that manually umounting doesn't work as I'd expect. After jail has been destroyed, the following mountpoint is active: /dev/gpt/jailname1ROOT on /.jail.jailname1 (ufs, local, read-only) There was var mounted to /.jail.jailname1/var but that sucessfully umounted. 'fstat' also shows no open files in /.jail.jailname1 But

I recently added a Linux box to a formerly all-Windows network, and one of the first things I wanted to get working was file sharing between my Win98 laptop and the Linux box. I got Linux to see the laptop via smbmount, and finally found how to get this to happen every time the Linux machine restarted. But (seemingly every time I turn the laptop off) the smbmount fails. Attempts to ls the mounted

Hello, After an upgrade to RedHat 9 and the supplied samba-[|commoan-|client-]2.2.7a-8.9.0 rpms we've discovered a problem with smbmount. It sometimes invokes itself twice and then hangs. Sample script to test: #!/usr/bin/perl # testing Samba problem print "$$\n"; `/usr/bin/smbmount //cmc-apps/settlements ./t-samba -o

I'm running Linux Fedora Core 2 with Samba 3.0.3-5 installed. I'm experiencing some strange behavior when I try to mount a FAT32 share on a Win2k workstation. After a fresh reboot, when I try smbmount (or mount.smb) everything seems to work (no error messages). Then when I try to access the mountpoint - via Nautilus or by doing "ls" in a terminal - the system freezes. If I

Hi, I'm sure that you are all aware that the mount utilities that ship with samba are designed to compile and run only with Linux 2.1 series development kernels. I'll _try_ keep this short and sweet while doing my best to explain what I have done, since I have a tendancy to ramble on. I have two boxes, one Linux with libc5, and another with Linux and Glibc2 (aka libc6). The Samba

Hi, Dear All This is my section of [CDROM] in smb.conf: [cdrom] comment = Samba server's CD-ROM writable = no locking = no path = /cdrom public = yes ; ; The next two parameters show how to auto-mount a CD-ROM when the ; cdrom share is accesed. For this to work /etc/fstab must contain ; an entry like this: ; ; /dev/scd0 /cdrom iso9660

When I mount linux/windows samba shares with smbmount (command line or with komba2) I have this kind of error : [thomas@Daemon / ]$ cd Dance\ \&\ Techno [thomas@Daemon Dance & Techno]$ ls Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address cbff0000 *pde = 00031063 *pte = 00000000 Oops: 0000 CPU: 0 EIP: 0010:[<cc9f9c34>] Tainted: P EFLAGS: 00010246 eax: 00000000

Hi All: When I use samfs, sometimes I got the following messages, Mr. Google says this is because the windows client use the share, and the connection is "reconnected"! Does it right? How to ward off the error? Is there any potential problem if I ignore it? My actions are smbmount and smbumount some shares. Sometimes some shares are smbumount before they mounted (thus cause a

Hi! I first reported this issue as http://bugs.gentoo.org/136272 Mounting windows shares as a normal user causes quite a lot of trouble for me, using samba 3.0.22.

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

Dear Samba Developers, Dear Urban, This was my original letter. I hope you get it correctly this time. Maybe it was too big, now I reduced the size of this letter. My goal is to make a Linux fileserver up and running with automatic archiving functionality in a mixed Windows 2000 - Linux network and since the beginning of February I could not solve my problem, so I write to you hoping that you
