 Posted: Sat Oct 09, 2004 8:04 pm Post subject: my samba drive is failing to mount |
 |
|
So I have a samba directory on my server, it's running gentoo, and is simply a BIG jukebox. I'm trying to mount the music directory into a directory on my primary desktop for easy access through XMMS. Can you all tell me what is wrong?
Here's smb.conf:
| Code: |
[global]
netbios name = wizardhat.net
server string = Juke Box
workgroup = gayble
os level = 99
null passwords = no
encrypt passwords = yes
[mp3s]
comment = mp3s
path = /home/stillspiraling/MyMusic
writeable = yes
valid users = stillspiraling
admin users = stillspiraling root
|
and here's what my /etc/fstab looks like. Does this have to be "tabbed" out correctly? I mean correct amount of whitespace on each line??
| Code: |
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
# $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-src/rc-scripts/etc/fstab,v 1.14 2003/10/13 20:03:38 azarah Exp $
#
# noatime turns off atimes for increased performance (atimes normally aren't
# needed; notail increases performance of ReiserFS (at the expense of storage
# efficiency). It's safe to drop the noatime options if you want and to
# switch between notail and tail freely.
# <fs> <mountpoint> <type> <opts> <dump/pass>
# NOTE: If your BOOT partition is ReiserFS, add the notail option to opts.
/dev/hda2 /boot ext2 noauto,noatime 1 2
/dev/hda4 / reiserfs noatime 0 1
/dev/hda3 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro 0 0
#/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto 0 0
//192.168.2.111/MyMusic/mp3s /home/jared/mp3s smbfs rw,noauto,users 0 0
# NOTE: The next line is critical for boot!
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
# glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at /dev/shm for
# POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink).
# (tmpfs is a dynamically expandable/shrinkable ramdisk, and will
# use almost no memory if not populated with files)
# Adding the following line to /etc/fstab should take care of this:
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0

Under the fstab, I tried putting user=stillspiraling, password=XXXXX but I think I did it wrong, when I would do
| Code: |
mount //192.168.2.111 /home/jared/mp3s
|
it would ask for a password, and when I entered the correct password it wouldn't work 
Any ideas, or modifications to my files?
Thanks so much. |

"It wouldn't work"...
What does it say.

My aplogies 
as root I try this:
| Code: |
bash-2.05b# mount //192.168.2.111/MyMusic /home/jared/mp3s
Password:
13034: session setup failed: ERRSRV - ERRbadpw (Bad password - name/password pair in a Tree Connect or Session Setup are invalid.)
SMB connection failed
bash-2.05b#
|
at the password prompt I first tried using the password for "root" on my server, and then the password for "stillspiraling" the user in my smb.conf on the server. |

Well - did you add the user to samba ?
You can not magically use UNIX users in samba, you know...
| Code: | | smbpasswd -A stillspiraling |

the user stillspiraling is a user on my server; the local user on my primary is jared.
when I open a directory in konqueror under //192.168.2.111, it simply asks for username and password, I enter stillspiraling and xxxxx, and bam it opens the directory with all of the music. t just does NOT want to mount that directory, same error as above.
thanks a lot for the replies, I appreciate the help a LOT |

if you do "mount -t smbfs -o username=you,password=yourpass //server/location /mnt/whatever" in the terminal, what happens? |
