THANKS!!!! > No, you're correct - the web pages do say that smbmount only works on Linux. I did hear a rumour earlier this year that someone in the Samba project has started to look at making smbmount available to the other implementations of Samba, but I've heard nothing so far. There is a tool called 'Sharity Light' which uses the same syntax as smbmount, except substitute 'shlight' for 'smbmount' in the man page ;') Sharity Light is in the ports under 'Net' - well, it is on my 228 machine ;') hth, |-| To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
