samba mounting error
when i trashed my install yesterday and started over, i unfortunately
forgot to back up /etc. oops. now samba won't work. i can do an
smbclient -L servername, but i can't mount remote windoze filesystems
like i could in the last instass:
the offending line in my /etc/fstab looks like this:
//8track/ned /8track/ned smbfs credentials=/home/nori/.smbmount-ned,rw
this exact line used to work. the credentials file is my username
(with a space in the username, which is why i'm using the file instead
of passing them on the line) and password.
but when i try to mount it:
spycellar:~# mount -a
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //8track/ned,
or too many mounted file systems
but nothing else is mounted!
spycellar:~# df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda4 15559588 1260756 13508436 9% /
the shared filesystem is okay, as windoze users can access that
partition. and it's certainly of type smbfs.
what's going on here? i feel like it must be in my smb.conf, which i
pasted below, but i'm just using the dpkg defaults.
thanks,
