I am looking to make an entry in my fstab for an smb file share that has a space in the name. <snip one line from fstab> //Account@NBName/MY SHARE /mntpoint smbfs rw,noauto,-W=AccountDomain,-I=RealName.My.Domain.Edu 0 0 </end snip> I have tried many variations on the share name using double-quotes, single-quotes, "\ ", with no success. >mount /mntpoint fstab: /etc/fstab:17: Inappropriate file type or format fstab: /etc/fstab:17: Inappropriate file type or format mount: /mntpoint: unknown special file or file system mount is parsing the fstab and using the space in the share name as a delimiter. Any ideas how I can make this entry in my fstab? Unfortunately, renaming my share is NOT an option.
