How to mount windows share drives with automounter in FC6!
 

hi all
i can't mount the windows drives using mount command.it shows an error msg witch is"no such partition found" but i'm sure the path is correct,and i even can't browse the windows network under the file browser. after i click computer-network-windows network,,nothing display. anyone can help ?

Hang on - "windows share drive" is ambiguous.

Do you mean you are trying to mount a samba (windows) share or that you are trying to access an ntfs (windows) partition?

Whichever, you need to show us the command you are using as well as the output of that command. Just copy and paste it here.

For windows shares, see man mount.cifs

hello
i mean i want to mount the smbfs from windows local network share files.

here is my auto.misc file
$ more /etc/auto.misc

# This is an automounter map and it has the following format
# key [ -mount-options-separated-by-comma ] location
# Details may be found in the autofs(5) manpage

cd -fstype=iso9660,ro,nosuid,nodev :/dev/cdrom
01 -fstype=smbfs,username=public%win2k3 ://192.168.0.1/01
02 -fstype=smbfs,username=public%win2k3 ://192.168.0.1/02

i can use automount to mount windows local network share drives in FC4,,but it looks doesn't support smbfs in FC6,

thanks

i've changed fstype=smbfs to the fstype=cifs in auto.misc file. and it work, thank you !

There you go... it's wonderful when people take advice :)
