I spent a good deal of time reading bug reports on this today. While wireless may still be a problem, you can try configuring network-manager to use "system setting" mode instead of user mode.
1) Right click on the nm-applet icon on the gnome panel and select "edit connections"
2) Select your network adapter and click "edit".
3) Make sure that "Available to all users" is checked.
4) Click apply.
If that doesn't work, despite FrustratedWithChanges ranting post, it does come with good advice. You could add an init script to mount and unmount your drives.
Try this:
1) Create the file with this command:
Code:
sudo nano /etc/init.d/cifs-mount
2) Paste the following into the file:
Code:
#! /bin/sh
# /etc/init.d/cifs-mount
#
# Some things that run always
touch /var/lock/cifs-mount
case "$1" in
start)
echo "Starting script cifs-mount"
mount /mnt/NASdocs
mount /mnt/NASdownload
mount /mnt/NASphotos
mount /mnt/NASbackup
;;
stop)
echo "Stopping script cifs-mount"
umount /mnt/NASdocs
umount /mnt/NASdownload
umount /mnt/NASphotos
umount /mnt/NASbackup
;;
*)
echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/cifs-mount {start|stop}"
exit 1
;;
esac
exit 0
3) Make the script executable with this command:
Code:
sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/cifs-mount
See if that works.
