samba mount when not owner of mount point
Is there any way to allow users to mount a samba share to a mount point that he doesn't own? I have this mount point:
drwxrwxrwx 2 root users 4096 Aug 3 10:42 /views/master/viewmnt/
I have this /etc/fstab entry:
//vader/eagts_build /views/master/viewmnt smbfs ro,noauto,users,guest 0 0
I'd like to allow any user to execute this command (successfully):
mount /views/master/viewmnt
or
smbmount //vader/eagts_build /views/master/viewmnt
I always get the following error:
[barb@stimpy /views]$ mount /views/master/viewmnt/
Anonymous login successful
cannot mount on /views/master/viewmnt: Operation not permitted
smbmnt failed: 1
I've tried this with and without the "guest" option.
I don't want anyone in particular to have to own this mount point. Is that possible?
Thanks,
Barb
