This doesn't seem to be entirely smbfs-specific, but rather specific to internal workings of iconv modules. Here's some information from a while ago: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2006-December/031501.html I didn't get any useful information since then and still have to use a workaround of doing any mount as root to get iconv initialized first and then all subsequent user mounts are successful. While on one hand this seems like only a minor annoyance, on the other hand it indicates a problem in iconv internal workings and this should be considered a bug as this breaks a user-mount feature. Probably a PR is due here, I was just too lazy to open it when I first hit the problem. -- Andriy Gapon ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Mounting smbfs as user?

The user in question probably needs read/write access to the /dev/smbX device in question. An elagant solution is to create a group called e.g. smbusers. All the users who need to mount an smb share should be added to this group. Then you have to add the following rule to your /etc/devfs.rules file; [local_ruleset=10] add path 'smb*' mode 0660 group smbusers The following then needs to be set in /etc/rc.conf. devfs_system_ruleset=local_ruleset Then reboot or re-start devfs and try again. Normally when mounting a drive as a normal user, the user in question needs to _own_ the mount point. I'm not sure if this applies to smb devices, but try it.
