Thank you for the feedback! I’m fairly new to Linux in general, however;
I tried to implement the bash script by installing inotifywait and
adding the script to the /etc/rc.local file. It doesn’t seem to do
anything and when I do “ps – aux | grep inotifywait” the only thing
which is returned is my grep statement. I’ve noticed that when I edit
the rc.local file, it formats my share weirdly. I’m connecting to a DFS,
so my share name is “/domain.com/h5”, however; when I edit the rc.local
file in vi, it turns the “5” red, making me think it’s parsing “/h” as a
switch. I’ve since put quotation marks around the share name, but that
didn’t seem to make any difference. I was able to create an entry in the
crontab which seems to accomplish the same thing:

*/5 * * * * /bin/ls /mnt/username >nul

Users used to be able to mount the drives themselves, as long as the
drive mapping was listed in the fstab, but I’ve noticed that trying to
mount requires sudo now, even if the share is listed in fstab:

//domain.com/h5 /mnt/username cifs
user=WindowsUsersName,uid=username,gid=sudo,file_mode=0770,dir_mode=-0770
0 0
