Package: fusesmb Version: 0.8.7-1.1 Severity: wishlist Hello,
Configuring the fusesmb is a misery, it does not even provide the mounting target directory. In order to use Fusesmb, create a ~/.smb directory to hold configuration files. Then create a mount point (for example ~/smbmount). Once that is done, it is necessary to create a configuration file to set the correct fusesmb options. That file should be created in ~/.smb. For a complete list of options, see fusesmb.conf(5). A sample of a working ~/.smb/fusesmb.conf is below: Code: #global options [global] ; List hidden shares showhiddenshares=false ; General username username=<someusername> ; General password password=<somepassword> ; Connection timeout in seconds timeout=10 ;Interval for updating new shares in minutes interval=10 If you have a single username/password for a network, the options listed above may be sufficient. However, it is also possible to set options specific to an individual server within a network. As below: Code: ; Servers/Share specific settings [/BOX1] username=<some-other-username> password=<some-other-password> showhiddenshares=true ignore=false ; Servers/Share specific settings [/T-42] username=<yet-another-username> password=<yet-another-password> showhiddenshares=true ignore=true If you try to do similar thing, mostly it will not work. and furthermore fusermount will result in some mounting (check mount command), and it will give no files into the ~/sambamount well, fusesmb does not work Greetings -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.3 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686-bigmem (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages fusesmb depends on: ii fuse-utils 2.8.4-1.1 Filesystem in USErspace (utilities ii libc6 2.11.3-3 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libfuse2 2.8.4-1.1 Filesystem in USErspace library ii libsmbclient 2:3.5.6~dfsg-3squeeze5 shared library for communication w ii samba-common 2:3.5.6~dfsg-3squeeze8 common files used by both the Samb ii samba-common-bin 2:3.5.6~dfsg-3squeeze5 common files used by both the Samb fusesmb recommends no packages. fusesmb suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
