Look in your ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bashrc, and /etc/bashrc files for this line: shopt -s cdspell It causes the bash shell to "correct" minor misspellings, like a lower case 't'. -Ken Jackson > I am using Redhat Linux 9.0 on one machine and Windows XP on > another machine.

Hi, Need some pointers. Currently using mount -t smbfs -o username=xxx,pasword=xxx //servername/sharename /mnt/share Since I can only mount as root, (not in /etc/fstab) sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=xxx,pasword=xxx //servername/sharename /mnt/share Problem here is.. I can't get group or world writeable permission on the share. It's a NTFS share but that is not a problem. I can

I have a Windows Server 2003 system I'm trying to back up to a Linux host. when I access the share with smbclient, I can "see" the files (`ls` returns a list of files, etc) smbclient -U shareuser //server/sharename password But, when I try to actually mount the drive, I get "permission denied" errors trying to access the drive. (EG: using `df`) Running the following

Hi - My messages may not be reaching this list. Would someone at least confirm receipt of this message even if you have no suggestions/ comments re its content?

To recap the problem and give a solution: [problem] mount.smbfs is not working on

Hi all, I'm just wondering why smbmount allows the same mount point to mount several times the same share while a normal mount operation (with a non-smbfs) returns a busy mount point error.

Hi, I'm trying to mount a Windows folder from a Linux box with the command: # mount -t smbfs (...) but I get the error: "mount: unknown filesystem type 'smbfs'". Does this mean that CentOS mount doesn't support smbfs type ? If so, how can I enable it ? I'm using 5.1 Any help would be appreciated. Warm Regards, M?rio Gamito

Hi; Unable to mount NetApp volume via smbfs on CentOS 6.6 I have been able to mount the NetApp via smbfs from a Mac but cannot from CentOS 6.6 What I have in /etc/auto_smb on the Mac is: /Volumes/build_dir -fstype=smbfs ://domain_name;account_name:password at machine_name/partition_name What is the equivalent on CentOS 6.6? I would be modifying /etc/fstab? I don't see any examples (yet)

I would benefit from IPX support in both Samba and smbfs. I subscribe to Road Runner, a cablemodem service run by Time Warner Cable. The cablemodem hooks up to an ethernet hub. The ethernet hub is hooked to three computers. One of those computers runs Windows 98. The other two can dual boot between Windows 98 and Linux. TCP/IP works perfectly on all the computers, in both Win98 and Linux

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

This problem began a couple months ago with my new install of (you guessed it) XP sp2. Now, when i mount a share from the xp machine to my debian box, everyone, including rot, gets a permission denied trying to ls the dir. I've read posts about switching to cifs, but that has opened a whole new can of worms. I'd just like to see smbfs mount my shares properly the way they used to. My

I have the 3.0.5 version of samba on my debian Sarge (or Mandrake 9.1). Im looking for explication about the kerberos support for smbfs mounting.

I apologize because I know that this has surely been dealt with and documented before, but I cannot find it anywhere on the samba website, nor did a google search produce anything. For future reference, some type of advanced search option for the mailing list archives would be great. I tried the old google "error" "site:site.to.search" and it didn't find anything

I am having trouble mounting a smbfs mount in redhat 7.3. I have read the man pages for mount,smbmount,smbmnt, but haven't had much luck. I am thinking I am just getting the syntax wrong. If I wanted to mount a system on my network with the ip address of 192.168.0.1, What would the syntax be for this? Any info would be of much help to me, Thank-You
