Problems with Windows Domain shares?

I have a problem with my Windows Domain share. I can't connect to it.
Here is my fstab file:

Code:

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.

#

# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a

# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices

# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).

#

# <file system> <mount point>  <type>  <options>      <dump>  <pass>

# / was on /dev/sda2 during installation

UUID=cd24500e-3f48-44fa-b7f1-ca188f0e116f /              ext4    errors=remount-ro 0      1

# /boot/efi was on /dev/sda1 during installation

UUID=234D-8B07  /boot/efi      vfat    defaults        0      1

# swap was on /dev/sda3 during installation

UUID=e0108d16-999f-42f0-baf7-bcf4f26de592 none            swap    sw              0      0



//DOMAIN-PC/MediaContents /home/likewise-open/Test/Media cifs sec=ntlmv2,credentials=/root/.kencred,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0

Here is my .kencred file:

Code:

username=MAINDC\Ken

password=*******

If I use sec=ntlm and run mount -a then I get this error:

Code:

mount error(13): Permission denied

Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

If I use sec=ntlmlv2 and run mount -a then I get this error:

Code:

mount error(22): Invalid argument

Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

But I can manually mount an Windows Domain share with this command line.

Code:

mount -t cifs //DOMAIN-PC/MediaContents /home/likewise-open/TEST/Media -o username=Ken,domain=MAINDC,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777

Can somenone help how to mount a windows domain share automatically?

I have had similar issue with CIFS share configured on Windows. I had to tweak registry to get it working. I don't have the document which I referred at the time handy with me but what I can say it is not your destination (Linux machine) which is a problem it is the source machine (Windows machine)

You might want to have a look at these:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php...roubleshooting

Though above links are not the ones which I remember to be using when I was working on the issue. I thought you might find it useful.

Sure
create a shell script with

Code:

mount -t cifs //DOMAIN-PC/MediaContents /home/likewise-open/TEST/Media -o username=Ken,domain=MAINDC,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777

Then add the script to rc.local :-)

@ thegwer

Code:

mount -t cifs //DOMAIN-PC/MediaContents /home/likewise-open/TEST/Media -o username=Ken,domain=MAINDC,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777

Putting this in /etc/rc.d/rc.local will not mount the share because when he said it works when he run the command manually he forgot mention that he has to put in the password at the password prompt to get it mounted. If you look at the command it only supplies the username and not the password for the mount.

Also I think you need to use a / to separate your domain and usernames in your creds file. I usually specify the domain on it's own line so I don't need to remember which way the slash should lean.

When I specified the domain on it's own line I got it to work fine, like this

Code:

username=Ken

password=*******

domain=MAINDC

How do I "integrate" my Windows Domain home user 's folders to Linux home user´s folders when I log in as domain user at Linux copmuter?
