Greetings all; I guess I'm getting lazy in my dotage, but do we have in our current bag of tricks, a gui program that can display the available cifs/samba shares on the local network, and then allow the local mounting of such a visible share by nothing more elegant than having the user enter both the username to log in as, and the password, hopefully remembering those items till the rapture or some such silly amount of time? I ask because I just spent over an hour trying to get the syntax right for a mount.cifs invocation to do just that. I hate manpages without any actual, known to work examples. Also, where did smbmount go? Its loss means that even if I could have recovered my even more complex script from the old FC6/etc/init.d, it would have failed. I can reinvent that wheel eventually but its been 7 or 8 years since I had to fool with this & things get rusty, call it CRS, whatever. Thanks. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
