Packages
In Ubuntu, install the packages samba and smbfs.
Samba Client
- To mount a samba share in Linux (see [1]):
$ mkdir -p /windows/winshare
$ mount -t cifs //winmachine/testshare /windows/winshare
$ mount -t cifs -o username=user,password=secret //winmachine/testshare /windows/winshare
$ sudo mount -t cifs -o username=baddreams,allow_utime=22,umask=002,uid=1000,gid=124 //phoenix/D$ /net/phoenix/d
- Or make it an entry in /etc/fstab. Note that gid=124 refers to group sambashare.
//mnemosyne/backup /net/mnemosyne/backuprw cifs username=backup,allow_utime=22,umask=002,uid=999,gid=124
Mount as User
To mount a samba share as a regular user (i.e. without sudo), the following conditions must be met:
/bin/mount,/bin/umount,/sbin/mount.cifs,/sbin/umount.cifsmust be setuid (sudo chmod +s ...)- share point must be owned by the user (
chown username mountpoint).- May be optional, but does not hurt, set group of mount point to sambashare, and verify that the user is in that group
- mount spec in fstab must contain the option user (or users to let any user unmount).
- It seems that option suid should be present as well, but does not seem to do anything good to me.
//mnemosyne/public /net/mnemosyne/publicrw cifs noauto,users,guest,allow_utime=22,umask=002 0 0 //mnemosyne/public /net/mnemosyne/public cifs noauto,users,ro,guest,allow_utime=22,umask=002,suid 0 0
