Thanks so much for your help Glen! It worked perfectly! I must share this to show the power of google though. When I read your message, my brain read your command as 'submount' which of course will not work. I tried everything I could think of to no avail. I was about to respond to your message that it didn't work and decided to try google first. I type the following command line into Konqueror; gg: submount smbfs Debian The response contained this; Did you mean: smbmount smbfs Debian I knew instantly what I had done and was blown away that google replied with "smbmount"! After substituting smbmount every was worked fine. Again, thanks for the help, Randy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
