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

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/

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

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

I'm mounting a FAT partition on a linux ext3 fs server and I can change the uid and gid of the mount point, but I can't get it to mount it 770 .. it always mounts without group write permission How can I mount it so the group has full permissions to it?

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

Hi all, I have set up an LTSP environment (www.ltsp.org) for a small group of users who have migrated from WinXP. As part of the setup, and during the transition, I have created a number of folders in each user's home directory which are mapped via SMBMOUNT to the NT domain controller's home directories, and various shared data folders. When each user logs into X, a script is run

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 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

Hello I am connecting to an NT server via a Linux client.

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:

I am having difficulty with Windows shares mounted with smb on my linux machine. The mount directory will not have write permissions for anyone, no matter what. The mount directory that I use is /home/samba. It has 0700, or drwx------ permissions when it is not connected to Samba. It is owned by the user jhall, and the group root. When I mount it, if I use dmask 0777, I get dr-xr-xr-x. If I use

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. I have read everything I can find on this, and have tried everything I can think of and more... I am trying to mount a Win98 drive on my Redhat 7.0 box. The mounting is no problem. However, when I log into my user account and try

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

It's not an NT

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
