Fedora :: Where Do CIFS Network Shares Get Mounted?

Jan 21, 2011

I have mounted a windows network share using the gnome desktop environment, using Places -> Connect To server.The network share is OK, and I have the icon on my desktop and can see all the files.I want to be able to use this network as well in the console, so I need the mount point.What is the location on the filesystem were this networkdrive gets mounted? I find nothing in /mnt and nothing in /media also using mount to look at the registered mounts, there is no entry for the networkdrive.Nevertheless, I have this networkdrive now open in my desktop, and have an option to unmount it.I know that using the mount.cifs command you can specify the mounting point.

Red Hat / Fedora :: Intermittent Slow Access To Cifs Mounted Shares

Jan 14, 2010

The shares get mounted correctly and you can navigate through the directories and open files.The only problem is that it randomly starts going really slow taking 30 seconds or longer to open a directory that has 2 or 3 files in it.I have tried quite a few things to try and fix this without any luck. Its getting to the point where I am having to consider recommending that we use windows instead, which I would rather not do as I think its good for students to experience different operating systems during school.

Ubuntu :: GEdit Won't Save On Mounted Network Drive (cifs)

Jun 28, 2010

I have a line in the fstab file which automatically mounts a network drive every time I start up Ubuntu. I browse to a text file on the network drive and open it using gEdit and make changes to it. Then, when I hit the save button, a bright red warning appears:

Could not save the file [path here] gedit cannot handle file: locations in write mode. check that you typed the location correctly and try again. This also happens if I do save as. Then, after this error appears, the file actually disappears (gets deleted) from the network drive and in order to save it, I have to select save as again and type in the original filename. The line in my fstab file is:

//files.example.com/username /media/Network-Drive cifs uid=myname,umask=000,credentials=[cred file here],domain=mydomain 0 0

I'm not sure if this has something to do with the file permissions or gEdit itself or using cifs to mount. When I use the "ls -l" command on the file, I get

-rwxr-xr-x 1 myname root 7402 2010-06-28 01:14 textfile.do

which should be fine since the user has all permissions.

Fedora Networking :: Windows CIFS Shares At Startup

Jun 3, 2011

After booting, the sda5 and sda8 mounts work fine, but the Windows shares haven't been mounted. If I enter the command: mount -a everything works fine. I don't know if this a timing issue, or something to do with the new systemd stuff, but it has happened in previous Fedora releases from time to time.

Ubuntu :: Using Autofs With Cifs Shares?

May 27, 2010

I am attempting to set up autofs on Ubuntu 10.04 so that it can automatically mount cifs shares when wifi is connected. For some reason, it isn't working. First of all, I know the share is accessible because doing this works fine:

Code:
sudo mount.cifs //192.168.0.12/share /cifs -o credentials=/etc/samba/credentials
This is in my /etc/auto.master
Code:
/cifs /etc/auto.home --timeout=60 --ghost
And this is /etc/auto.home

Ubuntu :: Major CIFS Errors When Accessing Shares Etc In 10.04 - No Response For Cmd 50 Mid 34703

May 1, 2010

Since upgrading to 10.04 I have had constant CIFS errors in /var/log/syslog

Eg -
May 1 10:33:46 eclair kernel: [ 933.789217] CIFS VFS: No response for cmd 50 mid 32895
May 1 10:33:46 eclair kernel: [ 933.794567] CIFS VFS: No response for cmd 50 mid 32900
May 1 10:33:48 eclair kernel: [ 935.721371] CIFS VFS: No response to cmd 46 mid 37294

[code]....

All shares mount and I can open them etc, but always those errors appear whenever I try and browse to it, read them etc. These shares are mount from a Windows 2003 Server and no other machine has a problem reading or writing to this machine. I have changed the network cable and network cards in both machines, with no success. If I copy a file from a local drive to a CIFS drive, the file on the CIFS drive becomes corrupted.

Server :: How To Monitor That CIFS File Systems Are Mounted

Jan 14, 2010

We recently had an issue with "cat /proc/mount" telling us that a CIFS file system was mounted, even though the mount was not working correctly. So we're not sure if we can trust linux to report malfunctioning mounts, so we're planning on adding a specific file on the mounted file system, and verify the mount by reading this file from the client side (linux). If linux fails to read it, we know that the mount have failed. But before we go ahead doing this I thought I'd just hear how others are doing this sort of thing - how do you make sure that mount points are up and working?

EDIT: I just saw that I've posted in the security area, not in the server area. How do I move it?

Ubuntu Networking :: How To Test Cifs Is Actually Mounted In Script File

Mar 12, 2010

I would like to be able to test that a network mounted cifs(samba) share is actually mounted in a script file to do backups. I want to do this so that when my automatic backups run they actually go to the remote location or fail. Currently, if there is a network problem that prevents the network share from mounting, the files simply get copied to the folder (e.g. /media/backupmount) and end up filling up my small local hard drive.

Ubuntu Networking :: Slow Transfer To Mounted CIFS Share?

May 2, 2010

I have a Hitachi SimpleNET adapter (entry-level NAS device) on a Seagate FreeAgent 1TB external HDD (formatted ext3). The NAS device is connected over 100MB/s ethernet to a Netgear Wireless G router. All other devices connect using Wireless G. The NAS runs embedded Linux on an ARM processor and it runs vsftpd and Samba for file transfers.

If I transfer a large file using an FTP client the transfer maxes out at around 2.5MB/s. For my purposes that's good enough, especially considering the Wireless G bottleneck. If I transfer a file from a Windows 7 client (using samba) I get around 2.2MB/s. I know the CIFS protocol has more overhead than FTP and the difference in speed isn't that noticeable.Any combination of Ubuntu and Samba results in me getting less than 1MB/s. I've tried mounting it through Nautilus (GVFS) and /etc/fstab. FTP from this same Ubuntu client gets around 2.5MB/s.

I don't have root access on the SimpleNET to change the smb.conf. I've made a few adjustments to the mount options with no success. how to either speed up 10.04 as a Samba client or mount a folder on an FTP server locally? I've tried both curlftpfs and FUSEFTP. With curlftpfs any write operation results in an I/O error and it crashes intermittently. With FUSEFTP I never got that far and couldn't even browse the folder.

General :: Recursive Write Permission On Cifs Mounted File System

May 14, 2010

I have mounted a iomega file system on a cetos os machine using

mount.cifs //filserver-ip/directory /home/my-home/mounted-file -o
user=username

(** mounted as root) The mounting works fine.

The problem arises when I try to create a sub-directory inside the mounted directory. All the newly created sub directories become write protected.

I am accessing this file system from R software and it needs to write/create directories in side this mounted directory.

how can newly created sub-directories will become automatically writable, so that R can create new sub-directories and write data inside those directories.

Ubuntu :: Links On Mounted Shares

Jan 5, 2010

I use the following to mount a share from one NAS to another NAS (both runing Linux based on Ubuntu):mount -t cifs //rmthost/rmtshare -o username=id,password=pw mntdir/ lcldir...It mounts fine and I can access the files with no problems except when I access a directory or file that is a link. When I do that it links me back to the local drive and not the mounted share. How do I get the remote links to stay remote? Is it even possible?

Software :: Some Applications Will See Mounted Samba Shares And Some Won't

Jul 11, 2011

I have used Linux on and off over the past 15 years. Linux has been the solution to a lot of my networking problems over the years. I work in a school and I am keen to setup Linux labs for the students. Users can logon with their active directory [Micoroft accounts] and can access their files off server drives. All this is made easy with the help of CentrifyDC. I can simply access a network share and CentrifyDC handles the authentication.

My issue is that some applications will see mounted samba shares and some applications won't. For example I can open and save files to my Windows servers using applications such as Openoffice, Gnumeric, Abiword. However apps like DIA will only show local drives. Maybe some applications use the default file manager where the mounts are bookmarked whilst other use their own file manager?

Networking :: After Upgrading From Win7-32 To WIN7-64 Can't Mount Cifs Shares

Jul 21, 2010

This is the first time I have run into issues mounting windows shares but I really can't figure this out. Can someone put me out of my windows misery please.

First off, last week I rebuilt my work PC fromWIN7 32bit to WIN7 64bit since then I can no longer mount the window share on my ubuntu server:

I recreated my windows share called "Linux" and used the properties, advanced sharing and added everyone, full access and my domain account full access.

If I browse to \ipaddress I can see my share and access it. From a XP machine I can see the share and access it.

From linux I use the same mount point as before, /linux I use the same fstab and it fails

Code:

I try this manually now:

Code:

Next I try to mount it:


Code:

I looked at my firewall rules and they seem ok.

Next test was connecting to my 2nd pc on windows XP no probs mounted first time.

What is wrong with my new Win 7 setup?

Server :: CIFS Mounted Multiple Times / Error "Device Or Resource Busy"?

Feb 10, 2011

I have a little problem with my RHEL5.5 IA64. I mounted a Windows directory with 'mount -t cifs'. After a little while someone else mounted the same windows directory in the same mountpoint. The output from 'mount -v' shows me that the same directory is mounted twice in the same mountpoints. I cannot unmount it, not even with the force option. The error is "Device or resource busy". There are no open files in the shared directory and no one using the directory or subdirectories.

Networking :: Creating Accessible Network Shares On (Fedora 15)?

Jun 29, 2011

Currently I am trying to get some fedora shares to simply connect to each other to access a read-only shared folder on a host machine (no security/encryption even required for these files!). I've tried to get a smb network share going but that didn't work (can't connect with nautilus), I've tried a quick fix with daap and rhythmbox so that they can at least access the music, but rhythmbox fails very miserably trying to connect/create that (and mt-daapd didn't help much) - Basically I get errors saying the host is unreachable.

I haven't even set up a firewall yet for this network and already I'm running into these fundamental problems. Currently I'm using Fedora 15. On a whim I tried the "public" folder and had sharing of the public folder over the network enabled - yep, didn't work (and I certainly didn't expect it to). I would be trying some more advanced CLI stuff, setting up an ssh server or something, but the computer-challenged people who have to access these files just want to be able to click something and have it work.For the operational requirements of this setup, a file synchronisation system would work (although highly inefficient since it would mean gigabytes sent over the network).

Ubuntu Networking :: Cannot Open Mounted Shares On NAS "Permission Denied"

Mar 30, 2010

I have an Acer EasyStore NAS which I can access fine in Nautilus, but a server which I have been trying to mount via command line refuses to even let me view the contents of the folder. The mount command appears to work, a password is requested when connecting to the shared folder.

sudo mount -t cifs --verbose -o user=jason //nas/media /mnt/nas
mount.cifs kernel mount options: unc=//nasmedia,ver=1,rw,user=jason,ip=192.168.0.250,pas s=********

But I cannot even view the folder contents, as even a simple ls returns:

ls: cannot open directory /mnt/nas: Permission Denied

Even on my laptop which is able to access all the shared folders under Nautilus I am unable to mount shares from the command line.

OpenSUSE Network :: CIFS Writing Error In 11.4?

At the same time it's not working well on my 11.4 computer: the share mounts without errors, I see all files, can copy them from server to local computer.

I didn't figure out how to map the network drive on my Windows server (currently learning to replace this with Debian as well) to my Debian system.

I have read about 15 links but keep getting the following error: Mount Error (6): No such device or address

Here is what I'm trying to enter into my terminal (with important bits removed for security of course)

OpenSUSE Network :: Trouble With Permissions On Mounted Network Drives

Jan 15, 2010

I use Suse 11.2. I mounted 5 folders from fstab. 2 of them work but 3 do not. The 3 folders that do not work let me enter them, and they let me see everything. I can even create or delete a folder on them, if I am just browsing with konqueror. The problem is that I have a program that will not read them. It's a program made for my company and apparently it will only read folders that have all of their permissions set to read and write. The program will read the first two because their permissions are set to Owner, Group, and Others, can view and modify content. (The network folders are all windows server 2003 computers). The 3 folders the program will not read are set to Owner can view and modify content, but Group and Others are "can view content" If I try to change those permissions even in root, it tells me that access is denied.
