If you look at the "smbmount" command they give a good explanation.

Subject: [expert] Samba, autofs and fstab


Hi,

I am trying to configure smb filesystems for mounting with samba. I
was just wondering if anyone can tell me what exactly the format for SMB
filesystems is in /etc/fstab?

Also, I read about autofs is the Samba doc's, but they are not clear at
all and my man pages don't seem to have anything on autofs. What does
this doe and how do you use it. (file? format?)

I have been struggling for quite some time now, so any help would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Izak Fourie

Hi

I'm not an expert in samba. but this line in /etc/fstab allow me to mount
a win share under mandrake 7.1


//eva/e$   /home/W2K   smbfs
rw,username=whatever,uid=99,gid=100,passwd=yourpass,fmask=664  0 0

eva is the win machine with a share e$ . uid=99, gid=100 and fmask=664 is
this way to permit any user in the
linux box to write and read from the windows share.

if you need to implement this with to autofs. create (or modify the files
/etc/auto.master and /etc/auto.xxx
(xxx could be anything you want.) and inside auto.master put this.


# $Id: auto.master,v 1.2 1997/10/06 21:52:03 hpa Exp $
# Sample auto.master file
# Format of this file:
# mountpoint map options
# For details of the format look at autofs(8).
/xxx  /etc/auto.xxx --timeout 60

---
and  inside  /etc/auto.xxx
--
# $Id: auto.misc,v 1.2 1997/10/06 21:52:04 hpa Exp $
# This is an automounter map and it has the following format
# key [ -mount-options-separated-by-comma ] location
# Details may be found in the autofs(5) manpage

usrlocal -rw,hard,intr,rsize=8192,wsize=8192soledad:/usr/local
eva -fstype=smbfs,username=,passwd=,fmask=664,uid=99,gid=100
://eva/e$
michelle   -rw,hard,intr,rsize=8192,wsize=8192michelle:/home
-

after this run the automount daemon

/etc/rc.d/init/autofs  start

and add it in the correspondig runlevel with the runlevel editor you
want.. (or by hand).
More help do:

man autofs

Try the following:


//servername/sharenameTABmountpointTABsmbfsTABoptions

Example:

//thecore/appz  /appz   smbfs uid=502,fmask=700,guest


Best of luck.

PS: Anyone know what those zeros and ones are at the end of the
Mandrake-supplied lines are?
