Re: samba: mounting as cifs not working (works in Windows though)
Hi
I remember now how i used it.
First you have to run a smbmount // command, this fails but creates the cifs directory, it doesn't exist till your first smbmount command. It's a temporary directory which disappears on next boot.
then run
echo 0> /proc/fs/cifs/LinuxExtensionsEnabled
and now run your smbmout command again, all should be ok
Mr Smiley
you can ;put everything back without rebooting by changing the 0 or a 1 as below
echo 1> /proc/fs/cifs/LinuxExtensionsEnabled
A man with a thermometer knows the temperature. A man with two thermometers is never sure.
