You should be able to see the mount using gvfs-mount. In Debian the mount point from nautilus would be under /run/user/. You don't say exactly what happens when you try a manual mount - unless "nothing" is a full description, of course. If you looked on the server you might find helpful logs. (I'm assuming you have cifs-utils installed .) Then "mount -v -t cifs //server/mount mountpoint -o user=nobody" should work and provide useful information. You could equally well put this in to .bashrc rather than in a Template, or add an entry to /etc/fstab using the mechanism in /rw/config/rc.local. unman -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
