but that mask would effectively render the share as read only since that substracts the write permission of all entities (4 2 1 == r w x ). the proper umask (if it was required) would still be 000. i was hoping to try mondorescue on a livecd to create a system backup and restore it on a workstation that do not have an optical drive. i already bit the bullet and asked the company tech team to reblast the machine using norton ghost. hopefully i can get back a working machine by the middle of next week. :( ciao! > On 8/4/06, ramfree17 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> >> >> >> On Fri, 4 Aug 2006 03:33:48 +0800, rexonf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> > Wild guess, since there's not much to go on... try setting the mount >> umask? >> > >> >> i have already done that and also tried the rw option. i guess the > default >> is 0 since i think one of the two numbers at the end of the mtab entry > is >> the umask. >> >> i am currently looking at a parallel way of doing the backup, does > anybody >> know of a live-cd that carries mondorescue? their livecd is currently >> unavailable due to bandwidth issues. thanks. >> >> ciao! >> >> > On 8/3/06, ramfree17 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> >> >> >> >> >> hi, >> >> >> >> i am currently unable to successfully mount a windows share inside >> >> knoppix. the mount command[1] itself seems to work fine,and there > seems >> > to >> >> be a correct entry in /etc/mtab. however i keep on getting the access >> > denied >> >> error. i have just created the local mount point so i guess the > problem >> > is >> >> with the mount command. konqueror can access the share just fine when >> > using >> >> the smb protocol. >> >> >> >> i need to have the share mounted since partimage needs to access it >> >> locally in order to write the images that i am creating out of the >> >> workstation. the frustrating thing is this went off flawlessly a > couple >> > of >> >> months ago. i cannot seem to find any error logs related to this >> > problem. >> >> >> >> any tips is greatly appreciated. thanks. >> >> >> >> [1] mount -t smbfs -o username=myuser //10.190.32.7/share ~/tmp/local >> >> [2] //10.190.32.7/share /ramdisk/home/knoppix/tmp/local smbfs 0 0 >> >> >> >> >> >> -- >> >> "Programming, an artform that fights back" >> >> Anuerin G.
