Hi, Your command (sudo mount -t cifs ...) works running as root. Problem is that I need to run it from PHP and in this way, it doesn't mount. I have the ownership and permissions of the mount point set correctly. As it is a dynamic application, the mount point always changes (/mnt/user1, /mnt/user2, etc.), so, /etc/fstab is not an option :( Any ideas ?
