[EMAIL PROTECTED] mnt]# smbmount  //VAIO/SHARED /mnt/vaio -o scope=GFT guest
Password:

Why is the command above prompting me for a password?

>From the man page...

       guest  don't prompt for a password


Anyone got any bright ideas?

Also while I'm at this....

There's a file somewhere that I can specify the share in and it will get
mounted automatically when the system boots.

I can't remember what the file is called.

SMB connections have a habit of dropping out from time to time as well...
How do I tell it to reconnect?

I learnt all this stuff once but it was a few years back and I don't have
the configurations I set up any more.

Thanks in advance

Cheers Don
