Title: mount the samba-share
Post by: claus on September 20, 2004, 04:43:17 PM

Hello-

Until now my SME have server my windows-network, but now we want to start using suse9.1 instead.

We have realized a problem doing that:
We had to mount the sambashare .
I have tried to mount with linneighborhood but it keeps fail with : cant resolve address.

I have tried a lot in /etc/fstab  without lock.

I have tried to install nfs after the contribs but yast cannot find the nfsserver on SME, which is running.

So: HELP. I want to mount the SME-share on my suse 9.1 network.

Regards Claus

I'm no pro, but I'll give this a try...

Have you tried mounting from the command line? Try it and see what happens.

From your SuSE box try:

cd /
mkdir SHARE
SMBMOUNT //smeservername/sharename /SHARE -o username=username,password=password

If that doens't work, replace the servername with the LAN IP of the SME server and try it again.

See what that gives you. It should work from either machine to the other.

A combination with your commando a some changes of the rights ( user) made it works.
