Have just changed a machine from 4.11 to 6.1 by re-installing. It all works fine, but I cannot work out how to make the SMB filesystems in fstab mount at boot time. I used to do this by copying /usr/src/contrib/smbfs/examples/smbfs.sh.sample to one of the rc directories, but this script does not seem to exist under 6.1. Some googling lead me to comments that adding the line extra_netfs_types="smbfs:SMB" to rc.conf would do the trick, but that doesnt work either. When the system is mounted I can just type 'mount -a' and they all mount fine though! I suppsoe I could copy the 4.11 script over, but I am sthere must be a "correct" way to do this under 6.1. ? The man page simply says to add the lines to fstab. -pcf.
