That was an incorrectly worded statement.

What I meant was, Bob has demonstrated that he keeps all of his various mounts 
under /media.
From a previous thread.

[root@WS1 bobg]# ls -al /media
total 28
drwxr-xr-x.  7 root root 4096 Jun 29 13:04 .
dr-xr-xr-x. 18 root root 4096 Apr 22 18:35 ..
drwxr-xr-x.  2 root root 4096 Jun  3 15:26 mybk
drwxrwxrwx. 29 bobg bobg 4096 Jul  2 13:33 nfs
drwxrwxrwx.  2 root root 4096 Jun 29 13:04 smb
drwxr-xr-x.  4 root root 4096 Jun 22 09:21 test
drwxrwxrwx.  2 root root 4096 May 25 10:32 wd4t

So, I'm trying to honor his structure.  And, since I can achieve it, I don't 
know why his system seems
to fail in that regard.  Hence, the long thread.
