Add some more options: noauto,user,rw,uid=johan,gid=johan,username=johan,password=12345 This is not secure however, as any linux user would be able to mount it. Better to drop the password from the options and it should prompt you for it when you try to mount it. You might also change the permissions on /mnt/server such that only the user johan and/or group johan can access it. -- ********************************************************************** Chris Kloiber, RHCE Red Hat,Inc.
