I have run chmod +s /usr/bin/smbmnt and chmod +s /usr/bin/smbmount I have also tried chmod u+s on both smbmnt and smbmount I use this command on the command line: mount -t smbfs -o username=chadley,password=xxxxxxxx //chadwin/music /home/chadley/mnt/windoze/ It works and umount /home/chadley/mnt/windoze to unmount. I'm puzzled! ;=/ Chad
