Thanks. Here's the line I'm thinking of trying. Not sure if I follow yours totally.
Code:
mount -t cifs -o credentials=/home/glenn/.credentials,domain=JOHNSON,uid=500,gid=500, noperms //johnbonham/temp /media/temp &
Of course //johnbonham/temp is the folder I want to connect to and /media/temp is where I want to mount it. What about .credentials? I assume that it's a file that you created in your home folder? Do I need to use .credentials?
Edit: Here's the line I'm actually trying:
Code:
mount -t cifs //johnbonham/temp /media/temp -o username=glenn,password='',uid=500,gid=500 &
It's not working and I don't think it's because there's no credentials used. I noticed, on the last boot, a quick flash on the screen just as the system was moving from text mode to the GUI that said mount error 101: network is unreachable. As I moved to the GUI I watched NetworkManager swirl around trying to connect to my wireless.... AHA! says I. No wonder. That will never work this way.....
