http://forums.fedoraforum.org – In providing the same setup in fstab and same mount points as every other distro I use, I cannot get a mount to work at all in Fedora 18 Gold Beta Everything indicates the mounts are working, mount shows them, mount -a and umount works. I can edit fstab and run mount -a and the changes are instant When I try to cd to these mounts, I and su are both told we have no permissions. The permissions are correct. Any application tells me that they are not available. If I umount one of them, the folder is there and available/accessible in /mnt/sda2 (for instance). As soon as I mount it, it disapp (HowTos)

Stories similar to Mounts from fstab no longer available in 18 or broken?

I tried to mount a samba share from the local network to a folder in my PC. I added the following line in fstab

sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.5/my/folder/ /home/mounts/localmount/

But when I do sudo mount -a, it gives the following error:-

[mntent]: line 13 in /etc/fstab is bad

Can anyone tell me what I did wrong?

While I am able to mount a folder from a remote server using mount folder the entry in fstab is giving Connection reset by peer:

I have the following in my fstab

sshfs#username@remote:/folder/ folder fuse defaults,idmap=user 0 0

I have also configure trusted relationship between the remote server and the origin using public keys.

The problem I'm having is actually on my OS X, but the mount command is used in Linux too, and I figured I would have a better chance of getting it answered here than an OS X forum. Anyway - I'm trying to have my Macbook Pro mount a few NFS shares at startup.

fstab troubleshooting 3 years 13 weeks ago

Hello All,

I'm wondering if anyone knows how to troubleshoot fstab on Fedora 12. I have three remote Windows shares setup in fstab and only two of them mount when I boot and login to my machine.

Is there a way to troubleshoot fstab and find out why it is not mounting one of the shares?

Any easy way to have ubuntu remount all currently mounted devices on reboot?

I know that I can add the entries to fstab, but I would prefer a method that would just "remember" what I currently have mounted and mount them back on reboot (and not mount any devices that have been unmounted not in fstab)

Is there any particularly simple way to do this?

NFS won't mount on boot 49 weeks 6 days ago

I am having trouble getting my nfs to mount on boot. I am running Lubuntu 12.04 and mounting from a NAS (Synology-if it matters). I should add that am very new to using Lubuntu or any Linux distribution.
