cifs not able to mount by hostname only by ip (solved)

Posted 08-15-2012 at 04:50 AM by ted_chou12

Hi! I recently found when I mount by hostname using cifs, it cannot resolve the hostname, but only IP, like the following:

Code:

root:# mount -t cifs "//NAS/main" "/mnt/share/NAS"
mount error: could not resolve address for NAS: Unknown error
vector://home/ted
root:# mount -t cifs "//192.168.1.101/main" "/mnt/share/NAS"
Password for vl70@//192.168.1.101/main:

I did a search and found this post:

Fuck Ebay!

I sold an item on Ebay two months ago, the buyer didn't liked it, and ebay authorized a refund without my permission. But there is a $7.20 charge on my credit card for the item sold fee. Now ebay ask money from me.

Two weeks ago, I decided to trust Ebay and decided to issue a reimbursement of $100 dollars in TOTAL. The ebay agent told me I could get my $7.20 back thru some kind of transaction procedure but NOT directly. I trusted him cause he promised me....

I was about to start a thread about a problem I had with a "account" inside cyrus imap software. But like it sometimes is when you tell some your problem the solution just becomes obvious. This is one of those days. Just for anyone actually reading this heres the story.

This is the post I had written.

transmission rc.local

Posted 08-12-2012 at 02:41 PM by ted_chou12

Attempted to start transmission at bootup, and added transmission-daemon to /etc/rc.local, but since there are no initiailization users and config files, (root has not logged in yet), the transmission-daemon does not load the configurations, and transmission does not start properly. I did a search and found this file:

Code:

#! /bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides:          transmission-daemon
# Required-Start:    networking
# Required-Stop:     networking
