Yes, that would be "the other way round", which I thought would be less probable due to the question presented in the subject. Terms like "mount [...] on boot" suggests that FreeBSD would act as a SMB client here. Of course, the standard way to do things like this would usually be something like NFS, which is not very well supported in "Windows" land (and therefor requiring SMB stuff). Delegating the configuration into _one_ file (instead of spreading it across /etc/fstab, /etc/nsmb.conf and maybe some handcrafted /usr/local/etc/rc.d script) sounds like a much better approach. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" I've heard from more than one person that Samba is no good. Including the IT guru here where I work. All I know is that I've been running it for years and without a single incident. I quietly and reliably allows my Windows workstations to access my FreeBSD server's like they were very expensive Windows file servers. Never messed with the printing side of it and don't need to . File sharing alone has been worth the investment in time to learn Samba. As for NFS, I have found, on my network at least that using the TCP and -i options to keep it from timing out has worked fine.

This changed with the newer version. I'd never needed --with-ck-launch before.
