Can the same Windows share be mounted by two different users on a single Linux system?
This is a back-burner issue, but ran across it and wondered. I had ssh'ed into one of our linux boxes and then used smbmount to mount a Windows share (e.g. //foo/share). A few minutes later a colleague of mine logged into the same linux box and also tried to mount //foo/ share, but was denied (//foo/share is already mounted.) Only when I unmounted using smbumount was my colleague able to mount the share, but then I was not. We were able to work around this (a few changes in mount points and permissions and all was good enough), but wondered if preventing multiple mounts for a Windows share is a limitation in Samba/Windows or if we need to adjust some setting or something else? This is a FC4 box with Samba 3.0.14a-2. Thanks in advance for any pointers. Regards, - Robert http://www.cwelug.org/downloads Help others get OpenSource software.
