It's really weird, as smbmount seems to wait for a timeout before
mounting z: I tried to mount the same share from another linux box
(smbfs 2.2-8), and from win2K, and there was no problem, mounting ro
or rw. Maybe a name resolution problem ? I tried
//172.16.1.100/install, //serv-micro/install but it is the same. DHCP
is passing DNS and WINS servers. My samba server is using LDAP for
authentification, but i can't see how this may be a problem, as it
is server's job to authentify, and the client is not involved. I'm
going to investigate furthermore...
Thanks. I look forward to finding out what you learn.
I'm going to contact directly the guys from USR to see how to do that.
Another point : We are planning in our school to deploy large scale
100MBs WIFI (USR5416) . But unfortunately, the only way to use it
under linux is Linuxant driver loader. Do you think that it may be
used in linux boot CD ? ( just matter of programming, or major
design changes?).
You want to deploy Windows via the WIFI?
This will be tricky for a couple of reasons. Even under Windows, I am not sure how to set the wireless parameters (SSID, WEP keys, etc.) in unattend.txt.
And without that, installing the applications will beThese AP/adapters seems to be really fast ! we already try to run a ghost server on a notebook connected with 100Mb wifi and noticed no significant differences with or without wires !
tricky.
Getting the boot disk to work should not be too hard.The problem is linuxant, as it seems to be a very dirty (and proprietary) trick to load winxp modules in kernel...
Ok, I'm going to try this frst.We would need a way to let you specify extra modules to load at boot time, but we really need to do that anyway eventually...
But it's the Windows part of the install I am wondering about.
