Public bug reported: I've added the following line to /etc/fstab: //1in01/public /mnt/lin01 auto fmask=0777,dmask=0777 0 0 (previously made /mnt/lin01)
After that, I enter "sudo mount -a" and the following error occurs: mount: special device //lin01/public does not exist Issuing "mount" shows that the mount indeed is not activated. Manual mounting succeeds through the following command: sudo mount -t smbfs -o fmask=0777,dmask=0777 //lin01/public /mnt/lin01 Detected on Edgy, this is working on Dapper. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed ** Description changed: I've added the following line to /etc/fstab: //1in01/public /mnt/lin01 auto fmask=0777,dmask=0777 0 0 (previously made /mnt/lin01) After that, I enter "sudo mount -a" and the following error occurs: mount: special device //lin01/public does not exist - Issuing "mount" show that the mount indeed is not activated. + Issuing "mount" shows that the mount indeed is not activated.
