Hi, > //server/username /mnt/server smbfs > noauto,username=johan,password=12345,rw 0 0 > I can mount the thing (only as root) but could not write to it > How can i mount the share and write to it as a NORMAL user??? add the option "user" or "users" to your fstab line, and have a look at the following lines from the smbmnt man page: DESCRIPTION smbmnt is a helper application used by the smbmount program to do the actual mounting of SMB shares. smbmnt can be installed setuid root if you want normal users to be able to mount their SMB shares. You should do: [root@devil root]# chmod u+s /usr/bin/smbmnt After applying the suid bit to smbmnt, each user should be able to mount the partition Cheers, Duncan -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
