Now that is odd. Basically this should act as a normal mount and disappear when you reboot, or when you umount. Have you made any alterations to /etc/fstab? Is this AD or Domain Services...Is the machine registered in the Domain and is your machine authentication local or otherwise? One thing that does occur to me is that the AD/Domain machine account may have been trashed (but I was under the impression that there was only very limited client support for this anyway in Samba) and I do not think you need this functionality to just mount a share from Linux in any case. Bit bemused by this report, mounting a share in this way should not take out X (unless you have an X application running from the share but that does not make sense).

I agree this should not take x out but now i can not login. This system is using AD services and has been working for about a year. No alterations to fstab. This system is registered to the domain and authenticating to the domain. I will use ctrl-alt-f5 to start yast and try to rejoin the domain (will delete the machine account first).

I thinks this is time to dig into the logs.. The root account I assume is local, if you cannot login via the Windows Network in the first instance I would check both ends for authentication problems at the start of the session. Not knowing the structure and configuration of your setup cannot suggest much more, Windows Networking has a nasty habit of leaving broken things lying around in obscure places, which either go away of their own accord or hang around causing grief until finally nailed down. < snipped for sake of my sanity> .. mixing top and bottom posts is making me dizzy :-) - -- ============================================================================== I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.

Not quite, with smbfs mount was with smbmount, and you had things like smbclient which gave a FTP like client session. cifs uses mount.cifs which is distinct. There are some under the hood differences in the protocols used (smbfs is more orientated towards the older netbios stuff). - -- ============================================================================== I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.

I know it is my friend but when i go into yast to configure samba, there is no samba option. Do you have to config it via CL?
Nope. If it isn't showing up in yast then you need to install it. It ships with SUSE so a quick search in Software Management will get you what you need. Once installed go back into yast and you will find it a simple matter to get things up and running. Jesse

I know it is my friend but when i go into yast to configure samba, there is no samba option. Do you have to config it via CL?
Did you install samba? IIRC, it's an optional package. -- Use OpenOffice.org <http://www.openoffice.org> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
No i did not install samba. Umount /path/to/mount says "not mounted" but i can not get into the "desktop". I have not done any updates as zmd is broken in SP1 and SP1 was installed over a month ago and it has worked since then. Not sure how to get the login screen back Chris ----- Original Message ----- From: "James Knott" <james.knott@rogers.com> To: "SUSE Linux" <opensuse@opensuse.org> Sent: Saturday, August 11, 2007 12:54:13 PM (GMT-0500) America/New_York Subject: Re: [opensuse] Mount windoze shares Chris Arnold wrote:

We have a windoze domain with user shares. I would like to mount those shares (windoze) in my "home" folder. Can someone point me to a doc on how to do this or explain how to do this? We use SLED with gnome desktop environment. Thanks for any help
Samba is your friend. I believe it is installed by default.
