Other Help Topics :: Mount samba fileshare.

I manage to view my files on my windows computer through smbclient.. i was just wondering if there's any file manager/gui for samba...

or is it possible to mount them?

Yes,
grab the samba.dsl extension..

It contains the gui 'LinNeighborhood' , and an easy way

Okay i got the samba running. But i have another question,

how do i make DSL automatically mount my windows fileshare on bootup?

also, how do i make DSL execute some simple script i've written on boot up??

samba.dsl must be loaded at boottime.
assuming win pc is called jlspc1 and remote directory is called htemp and username of win machine is jls, this is the command u have to add to /home/dsl/.xinitrc before the fluxbox line
smbmount //jlspc1/htemp /home/dsl/htemp/ -o username=jls%,fmask=644,dmask=755,uid=1001,gid=50,debug=0 &

in /opt/bootlocal.sh add this lines
nmbd
smbd

hey thanks guys, everything worked great. But i still have a problem.
I did some config at the smb.conf so i can view my files at my windows box.

My linux computer was named after "Box"
My fileshare is "halldocs", so the path becomes "//Box/halldocs"

I have no idea why the name is "Box" but i certainly don't like it.
How do i change the name Box?
