Re: Sharing files between Linux and Windows

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The following mount command mounts a cifs file system, I.E. your Windows share, under the mount point called note.
The share is called bid and the user is also called bid.
One is prompted for a password when the mount is envoced, but there are ways to automate this.
mount -tcifs //146.64.28.229/bid  note -o username=bid
I would really not use NFS as suggested by someone on the list, as it is not verry secure and SAMBA works well.

I'm going to set up a folder called c:\share on my Windows machine. I
want to set up a device on my Linux machine which is connected with this
folder over my LAN. I know that this can be done, because I had
something similar at one time. However, i'm not certain how to do it
again. If I remember, it just took an entry in fstab and an entry in
/dev. Thanks.
