SMB mounting problems in Knoppix


Recommended Posts

hi,

 

i am currently unable to successfully mount a windows share inside knoppix.

the mount command[1] itself seems to work fine,and there seems to be a correct

entry in /etc/mtab. however i keep on getting the access denied error. i have

just created the local mount point so i guess the problem is with the mount

command. konqueror can access the share just fine when using the smb protocol.

 

i need to have the share mounted since partimage needs to access it locally

in order to write the images that i am creating out of the workstation. the

frustrating thing is this went off flawlessly a couple of months ago. i cannot

seem to find any error logs related to this problem.

 

any tips is greatly appreciated. thanks.

 

[1] mount -t smbfs -o username=myuser //10.190.32.7/share ~/tmp/local

[2] //10.190.32.7/share /ramdisk/home/knoppix/tmp/local smbfs 0 0

 

 

ciao!

still no dice. and isnt that one of the last two numbers in the mtab entry?

 

ciao!

 

Nope the last two numbers are to do with checking the disk at startup for errors and the other one I forget now. But try aioshins solution and see if that works. Just dawned on me it might be connecting using guest account without specifying.

i think i remember one of them being the applied umask, anyway i have tried every suggestion and I still get the permission denied error. i just wish konqueror has the facility to allow me to mount the share from the GUI. :(

 

ciao!
