I took out the space and added the comma. I'm not using a gui editor. I'm such a dinosaur I still use vi. Now the fstab lines are like
Code:
//paule6500/elevation /home/paul/elevation cifs credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,file_
mode=0777,dir_ mode=0777 0 0
//paule6500/docs /home/paul/pauldocs cifs credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0
777,dir_ mode=0777 0 0
//paule6500/avdata /home/paul/avdata cifs credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0
777,dir_ mode=0777 0 0
I umount ed one of my read only mounts. It disappeared from the desktop. Then tried mount -a and got messages
Code:
[mntent]: line 14 in /etc/fstab is bad
[mntent]: line 15 in /etc/fstab is bad
[mntent]: line 16 in /etc/fstab is bad
Rebooted, now all my previously persistent samba mounts have disappeared from the desktop.
