Mounting & passwords

hfawzy · 08-06-2005, 08:04 AM

Is it possible to mount several file systems to different mount points, but only asking for the password once (they all have the same password).
i.e , when I write :

Code:

smbmount //comp1/c /comp1/c -o username=user && smbmount //comp1/d /comp1/d -o username=user

it asks for the password twice (and I enter the same password twice).
I want it to ask only once and mount automatically all others without asking.
How can I do that?

Thanks in advance.

You could use a credentials file. Look at the credentials section of "man smbmount".
