I would like to allow user accounts to mount/unmount samba shares to

access to do this? Thanks.

I like pam_mount for this, assuming the passwords (not necessarily the
usernames) are the same on the samba shares as the login, or
sufficiently non-vital that they can be listed in plaintext in a config
file.

http://pam-mount.sourceforge.net/

Users place a .pam_mount.conf file in their home directory. When they
login, whatever is listed in that file gets mounted and is available for use as soon as the user gets a shell prompt. When you log out, it cleans
them up again.

It's pretty neat...


Wow. my post was terrible.. I used "there" when I meant "their" and "why" when I meant "way."

Anyway, I need a solution that doesn't use any third party add ons.
