Hi ! I'm having trouble trying to mount a win2k share from my linux box with the mount command. My linux box is a RH 7.2 and samba version is 2.2.4. It is part of the windows domain 'VALBONE' and the smb.conf option "winbind use default domain" is set to yes. So when the user slautier log into the machine, it does it without specifying the domain name. slautier is a member

Hi, I`ve got a problem with samba and /etc/fstab. I have a second computer running Windows XP SP2 with Western Digital MyBook USB2 external hard disk attached. The Disk is shared over windows network with a label "My Book (J)". I can manually mount this samba resource by typing "sudo mount -t smbfs -o fmask=777,dmask=777,guest '//win/My Book (J)' /media/MyBook", but

Hi all, I've googled on this but no luck so far. I'm using FC4. This works flawlessly: Mount -t smbfs //host/share /var/mount/hostname/sharename -o username=username,password=password,domain=DOMAIN,fmask=0777,dmask=0777 However, it fails in fstab when I do: //host/share /var/mount/hostname/sharename smbfs username=username,password=password,domain=DOMAIN,fmask=0777,dmask=0777 0 0

I need to mount a samba share as mode 777, so all users can read/write/delete/create. I have this as fstab entry //host/public /mnt/home smbfs auto,uid=user,umask=000,defaults,username=Perkins,password= see, i've had to put uid=user just to get it owned by user user, so i could edit files i put mode=777, but it does nothing. i want to let all users read/write/create/delete

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, my name is Steven. I am trying to figure out the mount command to put into /etc/fstab; Basically I want a FAT32 partition mounted, but I want specific user/group ownership for a normal user of the mountpoint and all directorys/files in it. I currently have this in /etc/fstab: /dev/sda8 /home/steven/sda8 vfat locale=en_US.utf8,windows_names,uid=500,gid=501,umask=0022,noatime 0 0 but i get

Hi all. Very simple question, hopefully with a very simple answer.... Here's my problem... I'm mounting a Windows98(se) share (yes, with full permissions, no password) onto my Linux box. Mounts just fine, all users can read from it perfectly. However, NO users except for root can write to the share! How can I fix this? Here's my mount line for the share from /etc/fstab:

Hi list, I've installed samba 2.2.3a on my Linux box. I have to join into an NT4 domain and all works fine. I've got only a question: Now I'm able to mount the NT share with the command: mount -t smbfs -o username=morgan,password=morgan //SERVERNT/DISC /mnt and it works only if I am root. Is there any possibility of mounting it automatically on boot? I've tough about /etc/fstab but

My original thread had the incorrect subject line. The original trouble / question remains open and unsolved. 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/

When I mount the Windows share it works, but only root is allowed write permission in the directory created. How can I allow any user write permission? I have tried everything I could find in the archive, and on google. surely someone has had to do this before? The windows machine is XP, I'm using Fedora Core 4. The entry in fstab is: //$fileServer/$share

Hello I am connecting to an NT server via a Linux client. I am mounting the drive on the client via the following in smbfstab: //server/Users /home/dm215/Desktop/SambaBringover smbfs username=user,password=pass,suid,uid=1000,gid=100,fmask=770,dmask=770,rw It works fine except the local user uid=1000 cannot write to certain directories.

I've posted here with this problem before, and while several people DID try to help, nothing seems to work! Here's the situation (again): I have a Linux box (Mandrake 7.0) running Samba (2.0.6) compiled from source. I can mount/read/write the linux shares just fine, but when trying to write to my Win98 shares (which mount perfectly), I get "permission denied". This only

Greetings in Christ our Saviour. I am having an enormous amount of difficulties trying to do something that should be quite easy. Obviously, I am missing something.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have seen a weird problem in one of my clients. The reported that when issuing a smbmount command (both client and server are CentOS 4.4), it would take up to 30 second for the mount to complete.

Hello. I hope that this is the proper place to ask this. Here is my problem. I have several smbmounts under Red Hat Linux 5.1. They need to be accessed by my apache web server. One of the mounts keeps getting disconnected, but this is not noticed by Linux. So the Linux box thinks that the files under the smbmount are still accessable when they aren't actually mounted. What would be the best

Greetings, I'm hoping someone can help... I have a Slackware 10.2 server running Samba 3.0.20b. When I mount a share with "mount -t smbfs -o username=user,pass=pass,fmask=777,dmask=777 //server/share /mount/point" (on another 10.2 PC) the mount completes successfully. Logged in as a user, I can access the mountpoint and create files and directories in the root of the mount point.

Hi, I'm having some odd problems with samba in combination with fam. On my linux system I have mounted some partitions that are shared by a Win2k machine on my LAN. With any GUI filemanager using fam I can create files and directories, but I can't delete directories, only files. If I try to delete a directory, it just doesn't work. If I try to delete a directory containing files,

I'm using Samba 2.0.6 on a Linux server. When using smbmount or mount to mount a share from an NT server, how do I set file permissions. An older smbmount allowed a -d and -f switch to set the file permissions. The newest one does not support these. The man pages for smbmount and smbmnt mention using syntax that does not work. I finally have gotten the mount command to work, but now I
