unable to mount samba network shares

[leona]

A problem I've had before, but was able to resolve.
Now after a fresh install of 8.04 I am able to mount network shares via fstab my work around via a start up script doesn't work either, but if I run the commands from the command line as root they work, but as "my" user I get permission denied.
Be going through the dmsg log to see if I can see any smbfs errors, but can't find any, I can not be sure that its trying to load it at all.
Lines in question look like

//192.168.1.1/www /home/leona/web smbfs username=user,password=pass,uid=leona,gid=leona,fm ask=777,dmask=777 0 0

This should work, (it used to) so can you tell me what is up?

Thanks.

Smbfs has been switched to cifs for Hardy. The formats are slightly different. Try this:

//192.168.1.1/www /home/leona/web cifs username=user,password=pass,uid=leona,gid=leona,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0

Check it with sudo mount -a. It will give you error messages that way if there are any.

You might also need to add

,nounix

at the end of the options list. Try it without first. It doesn't seem necessary for samba shares to me, but I think it's needed now for some windows shares.

Thank you for replying so quickly to my distress call That worked a treat, all my shares are working how they should now, I obviously must have missed that change.
Thanks again.
