 Posted: Sun Jun 10, 2012 2:11 am Post subject: Mount network drive fails - Two problems discovered? |
 |
|
Hi
I've got a network drive that I can mount as root with the proper terminal commands.
I'm trying to get it to mount automatically for all users on boot.
I think I have two problems.
1. /etc/fstab is processed during boot before dhcpd gets an IP address, so the mount fails. Is there a way to fix this without giving my box a static IP?
2. The mount location is visible to all users. As root, I can navigate to it, browse it, all is good. As a user, I can see it, but I can't get into the folder.
Output of stat command:
| Code: | DellOptiPlex john # stat /mnt/j_nas/
File: `/mnt/j_nas/'
Size: 0 Blocks: 0 IO Block: 16384 directory
Device: 18h/24d Inode: 268435585 Links: 2
Access: (0770/drwxrwx---) Uid: ( 0/ root) Gid: (11578/ UNKNOWN)
Access: 2012-06-09 17:57:35.000000000 -0700
Modify: 2012-05-16 21:30:45.000000000 -0700
Change: 2012-05-16 21:30:45.000000000 -0700

I thought I had a permissions problem, so I tried to change it as root, but got denied.
| Code: | DellOptiPlex john # chmod a+rwx /mnt/j_nas
chmod: changing permissions of `/mnt/j_nas': Permission denied
|
I saw a web post on using the chattr command, and I tried that too.
| Code: | DellOptiPlex john # chattr -i /mnt/j_nas/
chattr: Inappropriate ioctl for device while reading flags on /mnt/j_nas/
|
And the /etc/fstab
| Code: | /dev/sda5 /boot ext2 noauto,noatime 1 2
/dev/sda7 / ext3 noatime 0 1
/dev/sda6 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,ro 0 0
#/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto 0 0
//192.168.1.202/j_nas_drive /mnt/j_nas auto,users,cifs,rw credentials=/etc/j_nas_share.credentials 0 0
/dev/sda1 /mnt/windows ntfs-3g users 0 0 s
|
Any help greatly appreciated! |

Add _netdev to your list of mount options in fstab. Also, it looks like your fstab entry is not valid. The filesystem type should be cifs.
I don't know about your permission issue though. Maybe noperm mount option would avoid it? You'd be exposing the entire share rw to anyone on the system though. |

OK so this one seems to work now. Everything boots, and the network share get loaded after the network comes up.
| Code: | /dev/sda5 /boot ext2 noauto,noatime 1 2
/dev/sda7 / ext3 noatime 0 1
/dev/sda6 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,ro 0 0
#/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto 0 0
//192.168.1.202/j_nas_drive /mnt/j_nas cifs auto,noperm,users,_netdev,credentials=/etc/j_nas_share.credentials 0 0
/dev/sda1 /mnt/windows ntfs-3g users 0 0 s
|
But you are suggesting that this is a security risk? So any suggestions on how I can take out the noperm attribute and restrict the share to one particular user? |

Following up on my previous post, I now have this fstab:
| Code: | /dev/sda5 /boot ext2 noauto,noatime 1 2
/dev/sda7 / ext3 noatime 0 1
/dev/sda6 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,ro 0 0
#/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto 0 0
//192.168.1.202/j_nas_drive /mnt/j_nas cifs auto,uid=1000,_netdev,credentials=/etc/j_nas_share.credentials 0 0
/dev/sda1 /mnt/windows ntfs-3g users 0 0 s
|
Given that UID=1000 is the user I want to have access, is that tighter security? |
