Yesterday I was able to mount my smb share with the following command:
sudo mount -t cifs //XXXX/share /media/share -o user=Ben,password=XXX,workgroup=WORKGROUP,ip=XXX.XX.XX,uid=ben,gid=ben,rw
I don't know why it is not working anymore.
I've got a private share set up on my home server (running Ubuntu Server 12.04.2 64-bit), such that I can mount it with a username/password. I've got it auto-mounting in /etc/fstab with the following line:
Code:
//192.168.1.120/jaywalker_pshare /media/server cifs username=jaywalker,password=xxx,domain=WORKGROUP 0 0
This worked immediately after I set it up.
Hi all!
When I try to mount remote smb share from my FC18 system, I receive "mount error(22): Invalid argument" message.
Why does Linux require that a user be root/using sudo/specifically authorized per mount in order to mount something? It seems like the decision as to whether to allow a user to mount something should be based on their access rights to the source volume/network share and to the mount point.
OK so I've got two samba shares that I'm trying to get mounted. Both are being shared from the same Windows 7 machine. One mounts with out problems, the other one complains about permission denied.

Currently I have a number of share folders that I am using as a very simple home server for media and other files.
This works for a manual mount every time - like clock work:
sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.121/mymusic /media/mymusic -o username=majikwah,password=Br6adigo
However, I have to mount these every time I reboot. Is there a way to mount permanently?
I am trying to mount a DFS share on a Fedora 16 box.
I have tried the request-key solution in http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=249327 but it has made no difference.
If I use the location given to me by the share admin which is a domain then I get this:
[root@paddy ~]# mount --verbose -t cifs -o credentials=/home/zebee/company/credentials,dom=OCAUS01 //company.com.au/oms/home01/Ze
I have a number of fstab entries that will no longer mount. They used to work under 10.04 and after I did a clean install of 12.04, they did work for a while although they would periodically hang up and become unresponsive until they were unmounted "lazily" and then remounted.
