Thanks... but there's that word again `resource'. What is meant by that? And in the spot where you are using `domain' the man page says `workgroup' ... as I understand it, those are different critters. So are they interchangeable in the command? The first example worked here, but for one problem. The user specified in the command cannot read write to the share if root does the mount. The user himself is denied the ability to create the mount. mount -F smbfs //rea...@harvey/harvey-c /mnt/harvey-c Password: mount: mount_smbfs: /mnt/harvey-c: Not owner What is the useless `Not owner' talking about? It cannot be the mount point because user does own that. ls -ld /mnt/harvey-c drwxr-xr-x 2 reader wheel 2 2009-03-26 07:10 /mnt/harvey-c And as mentioned if root makes the mount then user cannot read/write there since the /mnt/point becomes owned by root. So what has to happen for user (reader in this case) to be able to read/write on a mounted share? _______________________________________________ cifs-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/cifs-discuss
