Despite the advanced networking capabilities of Linux, the only network filesystem which is available seems to be NFS. There are others but they are either still in development, not free or not featured enough to act as a replacement for NFS... unitl now. Enter SMBFS. SMBFS allows Linux to mount a remote SMB share but until now it did not act like a UNIX file system, even if the remote host was Samba running on a UNIX or Linux machine. This page is the home of the CIFS for UNIX implementation for SMBFS. Along with the server side Samba implementation, directories can now be mounted across the network using SMB. Computing > Linux narky Sun, 05 Nov 2006 00:02:25 GMT http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=226341 I have Ubuntu 6.06 installed on my Acer 1682WLMI laptop. My LAN includes a server machine running FC4, with several shares mounted with Samba. Yesterday, I upgraded the packages on the FC4 machine, and these included Samba, which is now at 3.0.23a. Unfortunately, this seems to have broken my mounted shares, which is annoying as I'd only just got them working a couple of days ago.

These can be shares on a Windows computer or on a Linux/UNIX server running Samba. Throughout this document, I use the term Windows computer to indicate the server. It can be either a Windows computer or a Linux/UNIX server running Samba. The Windows username and Windows password refer to the username and password on either the Windows computer or the Linux/UNIX server running Samba.
