Linux-Client Windows-Server automounting issue(s)
I am currently using virtual-box running an already configured windows XP server and a Fedora client. I am trying to get the client to automount the shared folder (which is name SharedDocs) from the server.
My problem is I don't know the best way to automount the folder on the boot. I have chkconfig autofs on, so its always running. I can ping the both machines. I have added entries into auto.master as well as auto.share. I have tried adding an entry to fstab as well. My problem is I don't know how to automount the drive, I don't think my entries into the mount files were correct. My question is, what is the best way to make this happen? Server IP: 192.168.1.3 (windows) Client IP: 192.168.1.92 (Fedora) Folder to share on Windows server: SharedDocs Desired mount pt: /shares windows user: admin (pass=adminpw) client user: root any help or advice is much appreciated. And please don't send me the link to some page on tldp or something else. I know what I am supposed to do, I am just having trouble making it all work. -Rampant |
Hi there,

Since many configuration files (e.g. those of autofs and fstab) use whitespace as field delimiters, spaces in file or directory names can be troublesome. Try enclosing the names in quotes. Or better even: Try avoiding spaces in file names altogether. Quote:
