Hi All, Has anyone else had trouble creating Samba mounts on Fedora 3 that remain persistent?
I have an fstab line like so: //servername/share /mnt smbfs credentials=/path/to/creds,gid=wheel 0 0 It mounts fine at boot and works read/write for 'wheel' group members. However... I have a cron job instigated by root's crontab (so it should have root's privileges) to back up some files in the middle of the night and I get errors from cron like: "'/mnt' directory doesn't exist" It seems like the Samba connnection works for awhile but then dies (sorta) Both 'mount' command on both machines claim that the connection is made, but viewing/readin/writing doesn't work. The connection goes stale. Anyone have this trouble before?
