"logon" scripts

Ateo · 09-20-2005, 04:16 PM

I'm looking for a bash or perl script that scans a local subnet for nfs or samba services and mounts available shares. Is something like this available?

Writing a custom script is a possibility but my bash/perl skills are minimal.

Thanks

I'm not aware of anything like that, but it shouldn't be too difficult to implement. The only hard part is knowing what usernames/passwords to supply (and where you want the mounted, if anywhere special).

Actually, when mounting samba, you can supply a username/password directly in the mount command or use a credentials file. I was thinking *that* would be the easy part. I was thinking that querying the subnet for available services might be on the harder side....

Code:

for i in `seq 1 254`
    do smbclient -L 192.168.0.$i
done

That will at least provide you with a human-readable list. But it should give you a general idea of what you're looking for.
