automatic reconnect

robotball · 11-13-2006, 11:09 PM

I have finally got Samba working!! I can acces shares on my Windows laptop to my SUSE 10.1 server. What I would like to have is not to have to enter my password to access the shares. Can this be saved and my shares be accessed automatically? I want password authentication, but I would rather not have to re-enter my passowrd after a reboot. When I initially mapped my drives there was no option to save the passord only an option reconnect at login.

Thanks.

save the passwords from the windows side?
if yes, then this is a windows problem
start ==> Control Panel ===> User accounts ==> <your-user> ===> Manage my network passwords(upper left side) ===> Add the server, user and password info

Thanks for your help. I tried to do what you suggested but I do not have the Manage Nerwork Passwords option. I am using Windows 2000, is there a similar option with this version of Windows?

Thanks for all the help.
