Entering #mount ;gives me starforge on ://starforge/E$ type ype=cifs,ro,credentials=/etc/.autofs.smbpasswd (rw) All is well so far I think. Cd'ing to /windows/Starforge gives me "-bash: cd: /windows/starforge/: No such file or directory". 8-/ >Possible problems: > - starforge is not resolvable > - credentials in /etc/.autofs.smbpasswd are incorrect.

In /etc/.autofs.smbpasswd I have the credentials set to User Name = domainname/username. The account in question is a domain admin account, and as such should have access to all of the E-drive on the Win-machine. I'll try setting the cred's as usern...@domainname instead and see if there's any difference. -- /Sorin
