Possibly share_images is mounted read-only or if it's a share on another machine, it's not allowed to write. Root on one machine is just Joe Hickey on the other. On the machine that has the physical disk, you probably need to set the share rwx for all. If the machine that has the physical disk is a Windoze thing you might want to let user "root" to have the same privileges as an admin user on the Windoze thing. If it's a Unix of some sort, you would need to enable root user in the fstab entry for that share.

This shows the same problem. even combining -l with -f fails to unmount the share. - Doug ---------------------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT NOTICES This email (including any documents referred to in, or attached, to this email) may contain information that is personal, confidential or the subject of copyright or other proprietary rights in favour of Aristocrat, its affiliates or third parties.
