Hello, I have a linux machine (Fedora Core 2) and a Windows XP machine. I have an mp3 collection on the XP machine, that I would like to make available to the linux machine. I can use the following mount command and successfully mount the drive: mount.cifs //MACHINE/mp3_org mp3/ -o password= I would like to have this drive automounted, so that when I reboot the Windows machine (every few days) I don't have to mount the drive manually from the linux machine. I read a few HOWTO's but did not have much luck. I did edit the /etc/auto.master file and added the following line: /auto /etc/auto.misc --timeout=30 Then I created the /auto directory and created in it a directory called mp3/, as the mount point for the automount. Then I went into the /etc/auto.misc file and added the following entry: mp3 -fstype=smbfs,password= ://MACHINE/mp3_org I saved everything, restarted autofs, but I cannot automount the drive. I think I am just stuck on the proper syntax of the statement in the auto.misc file, but I am stumped. Any ideas? Thanks. ___________________________________________________________ Phil Vecchione E-Mail: dnaphil@xxxxxxxxx Web: www.dnaphil.com ___________________________________________________________ "In such extreme circumstances, the law is by definition inadequate.
