How to map network drive ??

[oedha at netscape.net]

> Thank you.......i have tried it...but no effect.....



No effect?  Did you unmount and remount or reboot?  Could you give us the

output of the "mount" command please?  Is the user in question a mamber of

the group "users"?



-- no effect means that it still ro mode, i only can copy/paste/remove by using sudo from terminal

and actually...before i mounted....x folder is like below

oedha at The-ELF:/media$ ls -l

total 24

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root       6 2008-01-15 00:23 cdrom -> cdrom0

drwxr-xr-x 2 root root    4096 2008-01-15 00:23 cdrom0

drwxrwx--- 1 root plugdev 8192 2008-01-22 10:57 sda1

drwxrwx--- 1 root plugdev 8192 2008-01-22 15:08 sda2

drwxrwxrwx 2 root root    4096 2008-01-21 18:06 x



but after i mount like what you suggested: ( i changed gid=root and uid=root, and modified 

with some others like users, oedha and also i tried umask=007 and 000, smbfs and cifs)

the mount process has no error but the x folder was changed to

oedha at The-ELF:/media$ ls -l

total 24

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root       6 2008-01-15 00:23 cdrom -> cdrom0

drwxr-xr-x 2 root root    4096 2008-01-15 00:23 cdrom0

drwxrwx--- 1 root plugdev 8192 2008-01-22 10:57 sda1

drwxrwx--- 1 root plugdev 8192 2008-01-22 15:08 sda2

drwxr-xr-x 2 root root    4096 2008-01-21 18:06 x



it can't cahnge after that.....when i unmounted it.....the x will be back to drwxrwxrwx !!

i kept doing mount, remount,reboot...hehehe



> should i install cifs package ?

No, both smbfs and cifs are available as modules in the default kernel.



yes.....i have smbfs...and i added all samba related packages....but still....ro

is there something that i missed ?



i also attached the smb.conf of the student file server





thanks;
