So here's: sudo apt-get install fusedav
Make a mount location, chown the directory, give yourself permissions.
I put my script in /etc/init.d. I'm sure you could put it anywhere though.
Paste the following in the file.
Make the permissions readable only by root, because it has your password in plain text.
Make it executable.
Make it run at boot.
Reboot and use.
I'm trying to make ecryptfs work on my GMX Mediacenter share (a service quite popular in Germany). I followed the instructions to include my mediacenter share in my fstab which works pretty well. So now I'm able to connect via Secure WebDAV as a regular user (no sudo needed). When connected, I try to create a ecryptfs transparent layer so everything saved remotely is seamlessly encrypted. Although no error message is thrown during creation, the process fails. When entering the remote share (cd mediacenter) and performing any remote command such as "ls -la", the following error message is thrown:

I want to setup a SSL encrypted WebDAV share on my OpenSUSE 11.4 server that is accessible from the internet. Everything is working fine when using Windows XP or Linux clients, but a connection with Windows 7 is not possible ("the selected folder is not valid").
I already searched for a solution to this problem I tried several setups:
- with and without encryption
- with Basic authentication
- with Digest authentication
- without authentication
I did not have success so far. Is there any solution to this (except not using Windows 7)? Or can anyone confirm that this should be working (and maybe my configuration is messed up)?
I have a WebDav (davfs2) mounted in /home/myuser/mydavmountI would like to prevent updatedb from indexing the content of the mounted drive. I tried editing /etc/updatedb.conf and setting the following:

I have a WebDAV folder (complete folder hierarchy in fact) currently managed by SAP's KM module. Long story short: it's in Windows, it's slow, I hate it.
I want to migrate the hole tree to my brand new Ubuntu Server 10.04 with a functional WebDAV server I just finished configuring. It connects to LDAP for user authentication, it's fast, it works like a charm.
Do you guys know any way I can transfer/migrate files from the Windows WebDAV to to Ubuntu WebDAV? The only thing that is important to keep is file security properties. Both WebDAVs have the same user database: our corporate Active Directory.
How can I mount a webdav location to my 11.3 pc at home so I can access the same files that I do via my ipad while I am on the move.
I have an mobile-me account therefore I use idisk.
I would like idisk mounted so it appears as a folder on my desktop at home, so I can edit the same documents without having to upload and download using a web browser.
is this possible?
the idisk url is https://idisk.me.com/YourMemberName/
I have installed ubuntu 10.10 and the Samba addon to configure my shares to my Windows terminals.This is what I got
Firewall off (utf disabled)
Internal Sata /dev/sda1 (EXT4 FS)
External USB HDD /dev/sdb1 mounted at /media/SG1500GB (EXT4 FS)
I have two shares
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.
I'm trying to add a line to fstab to mount a share on every boot. I can mount the share manually using
sudo mount -t nfs 192.168.2.1:/x_machine /mnt/test
I've added the line
192.168.2.1:/x_machine /mnt/test nfs rw,hard,intr 0 0
to my /etc/fstab file, but it doesn't seem to mount on boot. What am I missing. I tried looking in the log files for an error, but couldn't find anything. Ubuntu 10.04 x64 desktop edition.
this has happened in different distros, so far i have tried slack, arch, and mint at work i have an xp box with a shared folder i created. on my linux box i setup fstab as follows
Code:
//winxp/temp$ /home/user/temp cifs rw,uid=1000,gid=1000,credentials=/home/user/.creds 0 0
this gets mounted correctly and i can read/write the shared folder at home i have a win7 box that i create a share on and use the exact same code in fstab, but it wont mount the share. i get something like permission denied or access denied is there a difference in how winxp and win7 share folders? my usernames on the linux boxes match those of my windows boxes at each location. i have given my win accounts full access and control over the win shares.
I have a Dell Inspiron 1720 running Ubuntu v10.04 with a wireless card.My desktop is a Dell Optiflex running WinXP.The desktop is connected via ethernet cable to a Linksys wireless router. Certain folders on the desktop are set for sharing. Up until early last week I was able to access the desktop folders from the laptop with no issues.Suddenly I am now getting this error "Unable to mount location Failed to mount Windows share" whenever I try to access the desktop folders from the laptop.I suspect an upgrade is the culprit, but not sure.

i'm trying to connect to the three other machines in my house but am having quite a hard time doing so. i've never had a problem in the past with ubuntu, but, with 9.1 and windows 7, things have gotten a bit harder. i'm running 9.1 and my roommates are running windows 7. i've installed, set up and configured samba and i can see the computers on my network, but any time i try to access either of the drives, it says unable to mount location: failed to mount windows share.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have recently set up an ubuntu installation on an old PC. After some fiddling with both it, and the windows 7 machine, I have managed to share all of my drives. However, when attempting to access them from ubuntu, only 2 of the 4 hard disk shares will mount, with the other 2 failing with a Unable to mount location, failed to mount windows share error message.

I'm trying to mount an ISO file over a Windows network share. The share is automatically mounted by Nautilus somewhere in ~/.gvfs and I'm trying to mount the image using:
Code:
sudo mount -o loop,ro -t iso9660 '~/.gvfs/[...]/image.iso' /tmp/iso
However, I just get a
Code:
[...]/image.iso: Permission denied
When I copy the ISO file over to my local hard disk, it works fine, but not over the network. How come? I don't have write access to said network share, but I don't think that should be necessary anyway.
I have a router that supports NAS; that is, you can plug a USB drive directly into the router, and it becomes a Windows share. I can manually mount the NAS share and use it properly. But, I would like to have it automatically mount on startup. The main reason for this is to assign it a proper mount point so that I can access it from the command line, since I'm having trouble doing that after I mount it manually.
To mount it manually, I go to Places > Connect to Server, select the "Windows Share" service type, and enter "//192.168.1.1/USB_Storage" as the server name. The server name is supposed to be "//readyshare/USB_Storage," but that does not work, so I used the IP address.
I would like to mount this drive at /mnt/readyshare. So, I followed (I thought) the instruction in this document. I created the directory /mnt/readyshare I assigned myself a samba password with smbpsswd I created a group "readyshare" with the GID 1010 I created a .smbcredentials file in my home directory I modified my /etc/fstab file.The .smbcredentials file reads:
Code:
username=<my username>
password=<the password I created with smbpsswd
The line I added to my /etc/fstab is:
Code:
//192.168.1.1/USB_Storage /mnt/readyshare smbfs iocharset=utf8,credentials=/home/<my username>/.smbcredentials,dir_mode=0775,gid=1010 0 0
But, no dice. The share does not mount.What am I doing wrong?
I need to mount two Samba shares from my Ubuntu Server to my Desktop they are:
[shared]
path = /media/share
read only = no
guest ok = yes
[www]
path = /var/www
read only = no
I made two directories in my home folder on the desktop called share and www how do I mount these now? I have to use the terminal btw.
If I run the command: smbclient -L //192.168.10.101 which is the IP of my server it works.
I cannot connect to a share on Windows XP machine, because it rejects my password. I'm using correct username and password. When running from console, smbclient's error message is: session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE I can connect to said share from other Windows machine.

I'm trying to access shared directories on a WIN/XP box in my home lan and get that message.
I can access other shared directories on a Win-7 box, but not those on the old WIN/XP box.
Where to start to debug this?
i've been trying to network with the other computers that are in the house so that we can share music and pictures and what not, but, everytime i try to view one of their computers it says unable to mount location failed to mount windows share.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'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.
I'm trying to mount a windows share (that mac users use) using:mount -t cifs //x.x.x.x/Graphics /mnt/graphics -o username=x,password=x,iocharset=utf8.It mounts ok for the most part, but where the mac users put bullets in front of their file names, ubuntu displays questions marks. I've tried this without the iocharset as well and same result when I execute ll -l.
View 1 Replies View RelatedOne problem I'm having is with getting some apps to access NAS hosted files and folder over samba. Two examples are photo managment apps and backup apps, which seem to only want to work with local files and folders.I have come across a number of articles about cifs, autofs, gigolo, fstub, etc (including the autofs community documentation). But so far I've had no luck in auto mounting a samba shared resource as local.
Can anyone point me to a definitive tutorial, or provide an explanation on how I might accomplish auto mounting samba shares?
used to work perfectly with my password being memorised and all, I would click on network, select the desired pc and access my shares on the network perdectly. As far as I can say nothing has changed, same username and password and workgroup, however when I now select the computer I desired to connect in Nautilus it ask for my password and username (which I know), but it doesn't connect, it continually ask for it.
The weirdest part (which make me believe the problem comes from my machine) is I can mount the network drive using "mount -t smbfs", with my usual login details Why has the graphical nautilus interface stopped working?
in a nutshell im trying to share 2 HDD's in same machine with several windows machines1. auto login so no welcome screen.2. auto mount the drives3. share the drives with/without password 1 is fine, i did resolve issue 2 with "storage device manager" but no matter what i do i cant get it to load correctly as i cant remove the option "mount file system in read only mode" so i cant create/move/delete anything. i did also change the owner for when it mounts off root to my user, but still no avail.and i can share the drives using ubuntu, but i also have samba.not important
Code:also another 2 Q's for after i have sorted this, i need ubuntu to shut down when i simplypress the off button as this will have no mouse, keyboard or TFT attached.so then i can simply press the on button and within a min or so i can just connect to my 'network drives' and then also to enable a remote desktop viewer, i did try the inbuilt 1 but couldnt connect with my win 7 machines
I 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).
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got a NFS server on my network with an IP of 10.1.1.50/24. I installed NFS and configured /etc/exports as follows:
Code:
/data10.1.10.0/24(ro,sync)
/data10.1.1.0/24(rw,sync)
I was able to successfully mount the NFS share from my Ubuntu workstation (10.1.10.204/24) but it failed to mount from the RHEL 6 server which is 10.1.1.50/24 with the error below:
Code:
[root@cmtools /]# mount 10.1.1.31:/data share
mount.nfs: rpc.statd is not running but is required for remote locking.
mount.nfs: Either use '-o nolock' to keep locks local, or start statd.
mount.nfs: an incorrect mount option was specified
I think the RHEL 6 server is missing some RPM's or packages to allow NFS mounts or something to that nature.
I 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. I am attempting to share other folders within the shared folders to another user as read only but have not had any success. When I attempt to connect to one of the shares from another computer running Ubuntu 10.10, logged into an Administrator account with the same username and password which I setup on the Samba share I get the error: "Unable to mount location" "Failed to mount Windows share"
