Hello,

We are using LTSP 4.1, 2.4.29 kernel. I am trying to get a client to
mount a Windows share (the D: drive) but am having a problem. Testing
the same mount command from my (fc4 linux) work pc, works fine. So it's
not a Windows permissions issue.

In using the smbmount command I am getting the following error:

  smbmount //141.163.x.x/d$ /mnt -ousername=xxx
  (It prompts here for 'Password:')
  Can't get /etc/mtab~ lock filesmbmnt failed: 1

The file /etc/mtab exists but has nothing in it.

Anyone any ideas about this? The list archives show pretty much nothing
about problems with /etc/mtab, so obviously it is something odd
locally :-( Not sure why the '~' is there, but that is what the error
reports.



Thanks,

John.
