This works for me...
In /etc/fstab:-
//share/name /mount/point cifs
_netdev,credentials=/etc/samba/cred.txt 0 0
In the credentials file:-
username=your-windows-user
password=XXXXXXXXXXX
Make sure the credentials file is owned by root and only readable by root.
Regards,
Ian

Hi
I need to mount a windows share on a CentOS 4.5 box running stock
kernel etc - I have tried using cifs and also smbfs
My fstab looks like
//share/name /mount/point smbfs
username=user,password=password,uid=useridhere 0 0
or the same using cifs
When i try and mount that i get the following errors depending on the
share type
smbfs: mount_data version 1919251317 is not supported
CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -22
i would have thought that cifs was the way forward but any ideas?
These use creds are being used on an ancient 7.3 box and they work fine
thanks
