On my workstation I have FreeBSD 4.11 STABLE, Nautilus 2.8.2. I have a panel on left side of screen with Disk Mounters for floppy and CD-ROM, all working. I tried to extend this settup to samba shares, but am stuck at needing root access. This command, run as root, works fine: mount -t smbfs //me@aserver/ashare /adir me - username to connect as, known to samba on aserver aserver - the NETBIOS name of the remote samba server ashare - the share name on aserver, "me" has rw access adir - a directory in the root of my workstation, which I own, group operator, perms 755. It does prompt for a password, and I give it the password associated with "me" on the server. Run as me (unprivleged) it gives this: Warning: no cfg file(s) found. smbfs: can not setup kernel iconv table (default:tolower): syserr = Operation not permitted The Nautilus disk mounter seems to want to find the mount point in /etc/fstab and use that to create a command line "mount themountpoint." So, even if I get the permissions worked out, how would I handle the password? I have also looked at the Network Servers window, but so far have been unsuccessful in connecting to any of my four samba servers. But even if I get that working, how can I connect via a panel icon? Akk suggestions welcome. Gary Dunn Honolulu
