Hi!
I subscribed to this list a week ago and I am wondering if anyone is
reading/writing here. Maybe there are just no problems with autofs so
there is no need for discussions !? ;-)
Well, I use autofs successfully for quite a while now, but I am having
problems with auto mounting SMB shares. I created an entry in one of
my auto. files as explained in the man page:
gcd -fstype=smbfs ://server/cdrom
The problem is that autofs obviously does not know how to mount a SMB
share. At the beginning I found out that my RedHat-6.0 pre-packaged
autofs package had no support for smbfs, so I had to recompile. Now I
have a 'mount_smbfs.so' module, but the mount still doesn�t work. I am
sure that I am missing some option for this setup but I can�t find
appropriate information. In addition I would like to provide some
mount options to use a specific user/passwd combination to log on to
the SMB server.
Can anyone help me setting up a SMB share with autofs? TIA.
Once I know how this works I would like to add FTP servers to the
autofs setup. ;-)
Rgds,
