Greetings all;

Here is another example of why I run as root on the main box here, regardless 
of how much hell you give me about it.

>From smbclient:
[gene@coyote Pictures]$ smbclient -L 192.168.71.8
Enter gene's password: (hit enter, or give it, same difference)
Domain=[LAPPY] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.3.2]

        Sharename       Type      Comment
        ---------       ----      -------
        print$          Disk
        pdf-gen         Printer   PDF Generator (only valid users)
        genesdir        Disk      Gene's home dir
        IPC$            IPC       IPC Service (Samba Server 3.3.2)
        lp2             Printer   Epson C-82 in HQ color mode
        lp1             Printer   Epson C-82 in C84 mode
        lp0             Printer   Epson C-82 in C84 mode
        CUPS-PDF        Printer   Virtual PDF Printer
(note, the above printer list actually comes from this machine)
Domain=[LAPPY] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.3.2]

        Server               Comment
        ---------            -------

        Workgroup            Master
        ---------            -------
        COYOTE.DEN

Ok, so 'genesdir' is there. So I made a mount point in ~/gene/lappy-samba here 
on this box and:
[gene@coyote Pictures]$ mount -t cifs /lappy.coyote.den/genesdir ./lappy-samba
mount: only root can do that

There are some pictures stored in ~/gene/Pictures on that laptop that I sorely 
need to access and move as they might help me troubleshoot a transmitter 
problem that is a 900 mile drive away.

What is the secret? (selinux isn't even built into the kernel here)

Thanks.
