You could also try smbfs by Boris Popov <bp@butya.kz>, I've been playing with it here and it works pretty damn well (haven't tried printers yet mind you) and it works pretty much like the Linux smbmount, best of all, it's free: mount_smbfs -I 1.2.3.4 //user@machineid/share /mnt With plenty of options for automation. Loads as a kernel module, df reports: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on //FLATLINE@DEEPTHOUGHT/PUBLIC 28414464 20298240 8116224 71% /cmdmicro/public //FLATLINE@DEEPTHOUGHT/BAK 28414464 20298240 8116224 71% /cmdmicro/bak (in the above case, both shares exist on the same physical partition, which is why they both show the same amount of used/free space) Pretty slick huh? If you wanna play with it (author says it's beta, looks pretty stable to me so far, but your mileage may vary) get it from: ftp://ftp.butya.kz/pub/smbfs/smbfs.tar.gz Make sure you read the docs ofcourse :) Enjoy. (PS: yes, I did jump on this from someone elses post yesterday, but it seems so much nicer then Sharity-Light I figured I'd jump on the bandwagon, keep it up Boris!) This would be a great addition to the BSD source tree :) We already got nullfs, msdosfs, etc, why not smbfs? :) <hint hint wink wink> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
