i just noticed the samba share i had created did not retain functionality following a 
re-boot after that little kernel update yesterday.  what up wiff dat?
 
is the syntax for smbmount able to use -username/winders-domain%winders-password?  is 
there a way to pass parameters given linux username/password=winders username/password?
 
ethereal revealed passwords in plain text flying across the network.  not cool.  big 
time security risk.  who's got the remedy?

        smbmount works better from the command line. 

        smbmount //server/share /mountpoint -username=username (if the username is 
        diff than the one you are logged in with 

        smbumount /mountpoint 

        Works much easier.

        hep me hep me.  i tried to use mount to see a network share this morning for 
        the first time.  i got it working with the following syntax: 

        mount -t smbfs -o username=user/domain-name%superfancypassword 
        //server-name/share /home/winders-share 

        however, my first attempt was not successful using this syntax: 

        mount -t smbfs -o guest 0 0 //server-name/share /home/user 

        did i just nix my user home directory?  is there an unmount command out 
        there?  i looked at /etc/fstab to no avail.  of course, there was no guest 
        permissions on the winders share.  now, i don't see squat at /home/user 
        including all my user files and settings. 

        yeah, you experts have a good chuckle with this ID 10 T error this morning. 
        i had a slight winders relapse yet am preparing for more cold turkey in the 
        not too distant future.
