I am passing the username and domain to the kernel boot like: label unattended kernel bzImage append initrd=initrd root=0:0 init=/linuxrc z_user=username/domain z_pass=password z_path=\\server\install
For the linux boot (smbmount) to connect to a windows 2003 share this seems ok z_user=username/domain or "user/workgroup" in the smb doc. But in the context of net use when taken from tempcred.bat, it should be "domainname\username". (unless people use things like do/main/use/rname?) Else somewhere around line 1103 in install.pl # "Temporary" credentials (username, password). So should there be something like, what I do $z_user =~ s/(.*)\/(.*)/$2\\$1/; Or I made another blunder, into the misery of miss-understanding or just missed it! Because the canonicalize_user sub in install.pl Only splits user if it is a backslash \ not a forward / And so I think the problem is coming from the beginning in the kernel append settings sent to the master like - > smbmount "$Z_PATH" /z -o "$smbmount_opts" \ So smbmount uses "user/workgroup" and "net use" uses "domainname\username", so at the moment if you pass one or the other you are wrong somewhere, Would it not be better to split the username and domain name from the very beginning? I must say Linux boot is obviously a wonderful and great thing, can't wait for gnuwinnt.
