** Description changed: I installed smbfs, and then put some entries into /etc/fstab, so they automount on startup. An example of this is here: //<ip address of nas box>/<share name> /home/hamish/<directory name> cifs credentials=/home/hamish/.smbcredentials,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 ** note the use of "cifs" in the lines above ** (The username and password are in the .smbcredentials file) On startup, for each entry in the /etc/fstab file, I get the following in dmesg: [ 70.495504] CIFS VFS: Error connecting to IPv4 socket. Aborting operation [ 70.495569] CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -101 But the shares are mounted, and a nautilus session opens up (which is also annoying...) Also logging off with CIFS shares mounted in /etc/fstab, it sits with an error message: CIFS VFS: server not responding CIFS VFS: no response for cmd 50 mid <this number changes> And takes about 2 minutes to timeout. This also happened with Gutsy Should the timing of the mounting and dismounting be changed so that it works? It is related to the starting of network-manager and CIFS shares trying to connect on startup *before* the network is up, and dismounting the shares *after* network-manager is stopped. Hamish - - PS: note to Chuck Short. I am using cifs.
