Hi.. I have 2 linux servers with samba installed. Both are configured to mount to separate windows 2000 pro network drives. The proper windows user are created on both windows PC too In Linux server1, I am able to mount the windows PC SPM-TEST1 using the following command mount -t smbfs -o username=mcg_iur,password=mcg1234 //SPM-TEST1/IURdownload /mounted_spm_dir In Linux server2, I am able to mount the windows PC SPM using the following command mount -t smbfs -o username=mcg_iur,password=mcg1234 //SPM/IURdownload /mounted_spm_dir In Linux server 1, I add the following entry in /etc/fstab //SPM-TEST1/IURdownload /mounted_spm_dir smbfs username=mcg_iur,password=mcg1234,uid=502,gid=503 0 0 It is able to map the network samba drive after reboot BUT in Linux server 2, I add the following entry in /etc/fstab too as //SPM/IURdownload /mounted_spm_dir smbfs username=mcg_iur,password=mcg1234,uid=502,gid=503 0 0 But it samba network drive is not mapped after reboot. What can be the problem ?? any idea? The only difference that I found between Linux server 1 and 2 is their samba version. [root@server1 mounted_spm_dir]# rpm -qa | grep samba samba-common-3.0.9-1.3E.3 samba-client-3.0.9-1.3E.3 samba-3.0.9-1.3E.3 redhat-config-samba-1.0.16-2 [root@server2 mounted_spm_dir]# rpm -qa | grep samba samba-3.0.9-1.3E.2 samba-common-3.0.9-1.3E.2 samba-client-3.0.9-1.3E.2 redhat-config-samba-1.0.16-2 ____________________________________________________ Start your day with Yahoo! - make it your home page http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs
