Hello,
I have a Linux (Fedora 4) computer in my school network, and a shared file server (Windows 2003 Server). In the file server there is a folder called temp$, which contains a subfolder called something.
When I tried to mount the folder temp$ to my linux using:
Code:
mount -t cifs -o username=myuser,password=mypassword servername:temp$ /mnt/myfolder
or
Code:
mount -t cifs -o username=myuser,password=mypassword //servername/temp$ /mnt/myfolder
it worked just fine. But if I want to mount just the subfolder something as:
Code:
mount -t cifs -o username=myuser,password=mypassword servername:temp$/something /mnt/myfolder
or
Code:
mount -t cifs -o username=myuser,password=mypassword //servername/temp$/something /mnt/myfolder
then it said:
Code:
retrying with upper case share name
mount error 6 = No such device or address
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)
Could anyone reveal this case for me?
And another question, does FC4 offer a way to protect this mounted folder from being read, written or executed by other people (even when they use root account)?
Thanks for reading.
