This might be by design... In Ubuntu 8.10 network connections are handled by the new network- manager. By default wireless connections are defined "by user" and the wireless connection only happens when the user logs in. However network mounts from fstab are run before the user logs in, when the wireless connection is not yet available...
If you want to use the (wireless) network before being logged in (for example to automount network shares) you might want to try to convert your wireless connection to a "system" connection in network-manager (then it should be more like how it worked in 8.04). Let us know if it solves it. ** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- Auto mount of windows shares doesn't work. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/311350 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
