sharing linux and windows

djarmb · 11-17-2005, 10:06 PM

Using Kubuntu and have Komba2 installed. I'm a newbie trying to set up network sharing for the first time. In Komba2 I can see my windows xp directory but when I right click it to mount I get this error message

smbmount exited with errors.
smbmnt must be installed suid root for direct user mounts (1000,1000)
smbmnt failed: 1

I'm logged in as root to run komba2 so that isn't the problem. I've only used Linux for 2 weeks so I really need help.

TIA

Hi, I used to have the same problem because I had my windows partitions on NFTS.. I changed to FAT and problem solved...

Hey,

why won't you just use Samba to set up a network?
if you need any help let me know
