Re: [coLinux-users] cifsfs/smbfs support?

[Sam M. <pa...@gm...>]

Samba provides the following:

mount -t smb -o username=username,password=password
//hostname/sambamount /path/to/your/mount/point

Or in your fstab you can use the following:

//hostname/sambamount /path/to/your/mount/point smb rw,user,defaults,noauto 0 0

then as 'username' you can run mount /path/to/your/mount/point and it
will ask you for the password (alternatively you can override that
with the following:

//hostname/sambamount /path/to/your/mount/point smb
rw,user,defaults,noauto,username=username 0 0

What is also possible (but "DONT DO THIS AT HOME KIDS") is putting the
password in as well:
//hostname/sambamount /path/to/your/mount/point smb
rw,user,defaults,noauto,username=username,password=password 0 0


This is not a generic "I do not know how to use Linux" problem forum,
if you are new to Linux get a distro on a physical machine or
VMware/qemu and learn that way. When you have a problem with coLinux,
please come back and ask it.
