Dear list, I have a password-less samba shared and it is used successfully from window PCs. I also like to make an auto-mount for linux pcs so that it can be used from linux boxes. To achieve this I have made an entry in /etc/fstab as
``````````````````````` //192.168.1.1/shared /home/test/serverdisk cifs user,rw 0 0 ```````````````````` As root I can mount it and see all the contents of remote folder. It though asked for a password but simply giving an *enter* at password prompt mount the shared folder successfully. But then non-root user can't write on there. If I try to mount it as a non-admin user it failed with the following error as `````````````````````````````````` mount serverdisk/ Password: mount error 1 = Operation not permitted Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs) ```````````````````````````````` Here I did the same at password prompt i.e. simply pressing *enter* which worked as root ; but this time not !!! Have I missed anything or any special arrangement to follow as non-admin ? Need some enlightenment. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
