Last week my work laptop hard drive died. When they put in a new hard drive on it, they loaded FC5 instead of FC4 (which I had on before). I don't mind, but I'm kinda upset that nothing that didn't work before has been fixed (I can't suspend/wakeup the laptop. I have to carry it to meetings running, which is how the hard drive crashed the first time. And because FC5 is still OSS only, the wireless won't work until I spend half a day installing and configuring the IPW2200 stuff.) One thing I'm having trouble with is mounting the network drives. FC5 mounts them as cifs instead of smbfs. I can mount them as root, but not as a mortal user ("david"), and if I mount it as root, it's not writable by the user david. Here's the line from /etc/fstab: //nas-ma/dkramer /mnt/nasdk cifs user,credentials=/etc/fstab.credentials,uid=500,gid=100,domain=APTIMANETWORK,rw 0 0 When I mount as root: root at localhost]# mount /mnt/nasdk [root at localhost]# l -d /mnt/nasdk drwxrwxr-x 10 784 6238 0 Oct 2 12:56 /mnt/nasdk (I don't know where the 784 and 6238 are coming from) When I mount as david: [david at localhost]$ mount /mnt/nasdk mount error 1 = Operation not permitted Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs) Oh, and /etc/fstab.credentials: [david at localhost]$ l /etc/fstab.credentials -rwxrwx--- 1 david root 36 Oct 2 13:25 /etc/fstab.credentials So what am I doing wrong? -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
