Hi, I have tried solving this issue on fedoraforum.org and fedora-user lists without sucess. This the case: * samba mount points are defined in /etc/fstab * on bootup they aren't mounted because networkmanager is started too late in init process (in Gnome actually) * if you mount samba shares manually or by starting netfs service then it works * unmounting samba shares doesn't work during reboot and shutdown because NetworkManager service is killed much earlier that netfs service I have dealt with samba shares mounting automatically by puting a script in: /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/ # cat /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/samba.sh #!/bin/bash # Script to dispatch NetworkManager events # # mount samba shares on network up if [ "$1" = "eth0" ] then if [ "$2" = "up" ] then /sbin/service netfs start fi if [ "$2" = "down" ] then /sbin/service netfs stop fi fi This works for mounting but not for unmounting samba shares :( One other thing I thought of it rearranging order of services in /etc/rc6.d/ and /etc/rc0.d/ in order to make possible for netfs to stop before NetworkManager /etc/rc0.d/ K01NetworkManager K02NetworkManagerDispatcher K75netfs /etc/rc6.d/ K01NetworkManager K02NetworkManagerDispatcher K75netfs So in /etc/rc6.d/ and /etc/dc0.d/ I did this: mv K02NetworkManagerDispatcher K03NetworkManagerDispatcher mv K01NetworkManager K02NetworkManager mv K75netfs K01netfs I'm not sure how smart is it do this so I wanted you to look at this issue and figure out a way that would be best to fix this issue in Fedora 8 and so that it JustWorks in Fedora 9.
