Thanks Dan,
Dumb question. Where/how do I decide what the lin box is
trying to login as?
All I get are cryptic (to me) error messages.
Oops..........Just now, smb4k asked for a username/pswd
when I tried to login. This is a first. (I did have a
Miller Lite with lunch (or two)) Okay............three.
It asked once to access the 'puter, and again to access
the c drive.
I'm not unhappy with that process if I know next time
will be the same.
I suppose now I have to umount and try user eileen.
Then I have to figure out what changed to be
comfortable.
It may still require some scotch.
Thanks again,
Lee
OMFG! No wonder you're file sharing has been a PITA! Don't tell me that
you're mixing Miller Light with Scotch! Say it isn't so!
Everyone else knows that you're supposed to mix Scotch with a nice Pale
or Honey Blond Ale (I'll leave it up to you, to interpret the
Honey/Blond part! Grin!)
OK, Now, SMB4K can be configured on a per-user basis to remember the
username/password to use when accessing a share somewhere on your
network, but it only has the ability to store one username/password
combo per user on each machine. So make sure that you don't use
different ones for the same user, or get ready to start entering them a
lot.
That should also allow you to enter the username and password once into
SMB4K and forget it (but write it down and stick it on a Post-it note
somewhere obvious like they do at Microsoft, OK?). There should even be
a check box to remember the password and you should only need to do this
once.
Oh, and I don't think this is the type of list where you should be
mentioning any of your adventures with Eileen either! Just a thought but
you should either re-word that comment or send this email to an adult list?
Snicker! (man, I hope she's not a relative!)
