I need to use smbmount(smbfs) on FC 6. The reason is because a program called "FileBackup" requires remote drives be mounted using smbfs to be able to backup a folder. I've tested this with FC 4 and it works. FC 4 uses smbfs by default. FC 6 won't let me use smbfs to mount drives. FC 6 uses CIFS instead, which FileBackup isn't completely compatible with. Does anyone know how I can emulate or use directly smbfs mounting on FC 6? thanks, Adam Last edited by HowitZer; 08-16-2007 at 03:32 PM. Reason: wrong version in title
