[opensuse] mount cifs via fstab
All, I have a few remote samba shares I want to mount from my desktop. I have not found the magic method yet. I looked in Yast - nothing, the opensuse wiki - nothing, google - lots but it does not seem to work on my box. FYI: Both the samba server and my desktop are opensuse 10.2 with updates applied. So is there a KDE tool to update fstab? Or do I do it manually, and if so what is the right syntax. I'm trying: //10.0.1.44/share /my_mnt cifs user="me",pass="my_pwd",noperm,dir_mode=0777,rw 0 0 and it fails. From Konquerer I can access smb://10.0.1.44/share with the above user/pwd so the basics should be right.

I would suggest you have a look at.. http://pserver.samba.org/samba/ftp/cifs-cvs/linux-cifs-client-guide.pdf This also gives some help with some settings which can be helpful with OpenOffice documents on cifs on the samba server side. There are also some things to watch out for with UID and GUID settings, (Unless you state otherwise the mount will not always apply the UID and GID of the samba user to access files on the server, which can be a bit of a pain). - -- ============================================================================== I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone. My wish has come true. I no longer know how to use my telephone.

Thanks, looks good. There is too much info out there to make google a friend. I'm very surprised that Novell does not have an easy to find HowTo for this. Greg On 8/29/07, G T Smith <grahamsmith@gandalfsemporium.homelinux.com> wrote:

Okay, for those that follow, my problem was the " symbols in the above. They were in the HowTo stuff I read, so I assumed they were part of the syntax. You would think HowTo writers would know the Linux syntax in examples is <user> and <password>, not "user" and "password". If they would have used standard linux syntax for syntax I would have known what to do without the hassle.
