Andrewski Posted August 7, 2003 Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 Hi, I'm trying to map a network drive on my Windows computer from my Linux box. I'd like to be able to write to it, but it doesn't seem readily possible from either the sharing tab or the permissions tab in Nautilus. I'm kind of under a time crunch, so I don't have much time to research online. (A cursory look didn't find much.) Anyone know if this is possible?

MottS Posted August 7, 2003 Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 Yes it is possible. Post your fstab line here .. Or look here: http://www.mandrakeuser.org/docs/connect/c...mba.html#client This will show you what to write in /etc/fstab in order to mount a Windows share in the Linux tree. Then, you can write the 'rw' option to have read and write access to this partition. Hope this helps MOttS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrewski Posted August 7, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 Other way around. I want to access a folder that's shared on my Linux box. I have files and folders on a Windows machine that I want to transfer, as well as a number of files and folders that I need to work from/edit on my Linux box.
