Ubuntu :: Can't Permanently Mount A Windows Share Folder?
Jan 7, 2011I'm successfully accessed a local Windows Share folder with the "Places --> Connect to Server" tool, but I can't figure out how to get it permanently mounted so that I don't have to keep logging in every time I boot up. I understand that the solution is supposed to involve adding a line to fstab, but I've tried a dozen variations on it based on various tutorials I've found online to no avail. Is there any way to check and see how the "Connect to Server" tool is doing its magic? Or to make that permanent?

Ubuntu Networking :: Shared Folder Not Visible / Error: Failed To Mount Windows Share?
Jan 2, 2010I have two computers running Ubuntu 9.10, both have one shared folder. These were set up via Nautilus.
On computer 1 I can see and use the shared folder of computer 2 just fine.
On computer 2 I can NOT see the shared folder of computer 1 anymore since recently. I has worked in the past.
Some more information: the name of computer 1 is "daniel", the share name is "gedeeld". So the address of the shared folder of computer 1 would be smb://daniel/gedeeld/
Opening this address in Nautilus works fine on computer 1 (that shares the folder), but results in an error on computer 2.
Error: failed to mount Windows share. Please select another viewer and try again.

1. //home/test - Which I can see and access with no problems (can't write to it though even though I set the share as writable?, but, I can read from it). This is available to everyone. My windows terminal can see this folder and access it. This is on my main 80GB internal drive /dev/sda1.
2. //media/SG1500GB/Music. I set this up for everyone full access and I can see it at all my Windows machines but,I can't get into the folder. Windows keeps giving me an error stating network path not found.I also try to access it via the Nautilus (Places/Network/system/music) and get an error message "unable to mount location, Failed to mount windows share". This drive is mounted per the disk utility.

Jun 28, 2011I have a computer running Ubuntu 10.10. I am using it to share many hard drives connected to it. I am using Samba. I have successfully shared many folders to one Windows user.

Dec 23, 2010The scenario like this. I'm working on Ubuntu 10.10. I've enable samba sharing with full guest access enable. In my office I had another server (CentOS 5.5) installed just for me and I've created a Apache VirtualHost which root document pointed to share folder on my comp
This is my fstab setting
//my ubuntu computer name/sharing/www /media/www cifs context=system_ubject_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0,username=username,password=******,iocharset=utf8,fi le_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
After label the mount folder as httpd_sys_content_t the Apache web server working in correct way (duno much but at least it can index files and excute some php code so) then the troll come in : if some file was created by my ubuntu (personal comp) then the file would be listed in Apache virtualhost correctly.
But if I'm ssh to CentOS server goto /media/www which was mounted to my unbuntu computer. Then type command like $mkdir something Suprising that folder ./something could not be accessed by Apache anymore except I remount by umount and mount it again or "setenforce 0" What is wrong with my system can anyone point me out of this headache

View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Networking :: Accessing Folder Within Windows Share
Feb 15, 2011I'm trying to figure out a good way to access a folder within a Windows share from an Ubuntu 10.04 computer. I work at a school which uses a Windows network. Each class has one login and a folder for their work. All the folders are in one Windows share called //fses/class$. Each class does not have access to //fses/class$ (otherwise a student from one class would be able to access another class's folder) - they only have access to their own folder e.g. //fses/class$/3b.
When I try to access a class's folder from an Ubuntu computer I get an error that //fses/class$ cannot be accessed. I've got around it for the moment by using a teacher's credentials, but that's not ideal because then the students have access to other classes' work. I also tried using the 'mount' command e.g.
sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=3b,password=**** //fses/class$/3b /media/3b
This did work (although I know it'd be better to use cifs and a credentials file), but only a 'superuser' can do it, and it mounts the folder for all users. I could also give the students superuser permission for the mount command, but this seems like giving them more permission than should really be necessary. Is there any way for a user who is not a superuser to access the folder? I'd like to use something like this.
nautilus username=3b,password=**** smb://fses/class$/3b

Fedora Networking :: Easily Share A Folder With A Windows Computer In 15?
Jun 18, 2011Was trying out Fedora 15 but could figure out something: How do I share a folder?
When doing some Googling all I could find were forum posts on how to manually configure samba with smb.conf (a place I refuse to go, its 2011 people), and gnome-user-share which only shares ~/Public and doesn't show up on my Windows computer.
I do know that at least in Ubuntu 10.10 with Gnome 2 all I had to do was right click on a folder at click Sharing. I'm looking for similar ease of use in Fedora.
Ubuntu :: Make Deluge Share 'STATE' Folder Across Windows?
Feb 20, 2011I'm dual booting windows 7 and ubuntu 10.10. I use Deluge on both boots. Both instances of Deluge share a default download location on the Windows partition. I would like both instances of Deluge to share it's 'State' folder, which is where Deluge stores the .torrent files it is currently using and the information about their progress and such. On the windows side this location is%APPDATA%delugestateand onUbuntu~/.config/deluge/stateI found them, they look good.I can read/write to the windows side from Ubuntu, the windows partition is automounted, yada yada. I can even autoadd the .torrents from the Windows location when I run the Linux Deluge.But what I want is for the Windows side to function normally while altering the Ubunutu instance of Deluge to use the %APPDATA%delugestate directory on the windows partition instead of it's default~/.config/deluge/stateSuch that when I add torrents in Ubuntu (primary OS) and switch to Windows, Deluge will be productively downloading/seeding while I'm wasting my life with Starcraft.Possible

Apr 16, 2010I'm using Unix services for windows on a windows system and shared a few folders using it; now how can I mount it on Linux?
There's no way you can search for this question online. These search terms -
"mount windows NFS share linux"
Also mean -
"mount linux NFS share windows"
and -
"mount share windows linux NFS"
Which actually means NFS 4 which supports SMB protocol.
So actually it's IMPOSSIBLE to search for this and so this will be a good sticky.
Ubuntu :: Really Mount Windows Share (SMB URLs)
May 6, 2011I am currently in a more mixed environment as I desire and I need to mount samba shares because I need to work with the data. I noticed that nautilus does not really mount the shares and some applications cannot deal with smb urls. I searched and found this old thread: [URL]. Is it possible that after all these years, this is still unchanged? To permanently mount on boot time is not an option for me as the drive will not always be available - already changes when I move within the office from fixed to WLAN (e.g. when going to a meeting and vice versa).

Software :: AcetoneISO Will Not Mount From Windows Share?
Jan 21, 2011In an effort to get back to learning Linux have recently installed Kubuntu 10.04 LTS on a spare computer I have. I would like a way to mount my DVD .iso files that I spent hours ripping. On my Windows computers I just use DaemonTools. In my quest to find something similar for Linux I ran across AcetoneISO. The issue is that when I try to mount an .iso from the Windows share folder I get a message stating that only local images can be mounted. To need to have the images on this computer would defeat the purpose of having the file server with 4.5 terabytes of storage. Is there a way I can mount the .iso files without transferring them to the Kubuntu machine first? If I have to use different software I am fine with that. I am not looking for the command line option as I will never remember the name of every .iso I have.
