Mappare share Samba su Kerio connect come destinazione backup
2) Login to Linux as a root user (or use su command)
3) Create the required mount point:# mkdir -p /mnt/kcbackup
4) Use the mount command as follows: (Non funziona per il mount su SF)# mount -t cifs //wdstorage/public/posta -o username=myUser,password=myPassword /mnt/kcbackup
Use following command (SF OK!!) if you are using Old version such as RHEL <=4 or Debian <= 3:# mount -t smbfs -o username=vivek,password=D1W4x9sw //ntserver/download /mnt/ntserver
5) Access Windows 2003/2000/NT share using cd and ls command:# cd /mnt/ntserver; ls -l
Where,
- -t smbfs : File system type to be mount (outdated, use cifs)
- -t cifs : File system type to be mount
- -o : are options passed to mount command, in this example I had passed two options. First argument is password (vivek) and second argument is password to connect remote windows box
- //ntserver/download : Windows 2000/NT share name
- /mnt/ntserver Linux mount point (to access share after mounting)
/etc/fstab file contains static information about the filesystems. The file fstab contains descriptive information about the various file systems. fstab is only read by programs, and not written; it is the duty of the system administrator to properly create and maintain this file.
To mount a Samba share to be mounted when a Linux system comes up after reboot edit the /etc/fstab file and put entry as follows for your Windows/Samba share:
//ntserver/share /mnt/samba smbfs username=username,password=password 0 0
For example, if you want to mount a share called //ntserver/docs then you need to write following entry in /etc/fstab file://ntserver/docs /mnt/samba smbfs username=docsadm,password=D1Y4x9sw 0 0Where,
- //ntserver/docs: Windows 2003/NT/Samba share name
- /mnt/samba: Local mount point (you may need to create this directory first)
- smbfs: File system type (samba file system)
- username=docsadm,password=D1Y4x9sw: Share username and password
Open file /etc/fstab using vi text editor:# vi /etc/fstabAppend line //ntserver/docs /mnt/samba smbfs username=docsadm,password=D1Y4x9sw 0 0, at the end your file should read as follows:
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/hdb1 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1 /dev/hdb2 none swap sw 0 0 /dev/hdc /media/cdrom0 iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0 //ntserver/docs /mnt/samba smbfs username=docsadm,password=D1Y4x9sw 0 0
Replace sharename, username and password with your actual parameters.
In caso di errori con il mount cifs:
Aggiornare il repository:# sudo apt-get update
Aggiornare il repository:
# sudo apt-get install smbfs
Eseguire nuovamente il comando
