Just starting to experiment with samba to reach files that are on my wife's WinXP machine accross the room. Works OK for file access using the sample smb.conf file provided by gentoo (only modified to add my workgroup), except for the nitpick described below.
When I mount a directory with mount -t smbfs //ipaddress/Collins /mnt/samba I get a couple of informative messages that I haven't supplied a user/password. Prompt for passwd follows. I just hit enter, and all is cool. Is there any way to cause the mount not to prompt for a passwd? Hint, I have no defined users and do not log in to the WinXP box. Flames anticipated, security, etc., etc., but this is only on my internal net behind the router. -- Collins Richey - Denver Area if you fill your heart with regrets of yesterday and the worries of tomorrow, you have no today to be thankful for. _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
