It works > fine, but when rebooted, it sits waiting for a password. After > investigating a bit on the web I found that FreeBSD is uses the > /etc/nsmb.conf file for configuration and in that file I find > information evidently setup by Webmin, for example: > > [spc2k:backupexec:backup] > workgroup=SPCLOCAL > password=xxxxxxxxx > addr=192.168.1.13 > > First, was this properly setup by Webmin? From the comments in the > file, > it looks good. Since I am at a remote location, I had someone locally > just hit Ctrl+C during boot to get back in and look at these things. I > go to Webmin and click to mount, but then it wipes out all the mount > points except the one I clicked and does not mount that one.
