Brian, if I understand you correctly you are establishing the connection via SMB on your linux box? That should work but its unnecessary. Why use windows protocol to connect from one Linux box to another. SMB is there so that Windows computer can connect to it. Linux boxes should be able to connect though more native means. I would connect via ssh or use the Gnome Places/Connect to Server/ and establish a connection with Nautilus over ssh. That way you would have a graphic interface if needed.
>From what I know about smbnetfs I think it was created to connect Linux/BSD boxes to Windows servers, not other Linux Servers emulating SMB. I could be wrong though. -Chris On Wed, May 20, 2009 at 1:10 AM, Brian Green <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey, > > So I am using Crunchbang Linux (Ubuntu 8.10 derived) and have an > existing anonymous samba share setup on a separate server that I use to > backup files.
