I'd try using the mount command then cp /mnt/FolderMounted/filename.xxx /home/username/ and then the umount /mnt/FolderMounted instead of using the smbclient environment.

I'm even lousy at bash scripts, but here's a question. I can get to a share from my windoze machine using smbclient and copy files back to the linux box. I don't know how to put it into a script though. Here's what I've got: smbclient //kmiller/temp -U username%password get <filename> quit When I do it manually, it works fine (assuming I put the real username, password and filename in). I need to know how to tell the script to wait for the prompt from the windoze box before it sends the next line. I tried "sleep 5" but that didn't work. When I run the script, I get the smb prompt from the windows machine, then it stops. This can't be too tough, I'm just no good at scripting. I'd appreciate some hints, or a place to RTFM would work! ----------------->>>> Check into Expect... -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
