Windows 2000 share mounten


Hello i have been trying to mount my home directory on my windows 2000 server with redhat 7.2

I can mount it as root, and write to it as root but i want to be able to write as my normal username

I used the commando :
mount -t smbfs -o rw,username=johan,password=***** \\server01\johan /mnt/servershare

So with root it works, as user johan it came with the message only root can use mount .
And i do not want to become root every time i want to write something to the win2k server.

As user Johan i get the message that i can not write to the share
When i log in with a windows client with the same password it work well


Somebody got a clue

what you need to do is mount that drive at boot time. go into linuxconf (thats the easiest way i've found" and set up that drive under local acess drive, set the drive type to vfat since thats what windows is, and set the default permissions to "000" that will allow the root, the root group and everyone else to to write to the drive, also you can set this drive to be user mountable.....hope this helps
