ive done this before but cant get it working now... im trying to add a line to my fstab that mounts a samba partition. i know the hookup works cuz i can currently mount it no sweat using LinNeighborhood, but let's be serious... :)

here is the line from fstab....

Code:

//ChrisBox/LIBRARY      /mnt/chrisbox   smbfs                                  0 0


any ideas?

My entries look like this:
Code:

//host.domain/share /mnt/bla smbfs user,umask=002,rw,username=abc,password=123,uid=501,gid=501,noauto 0 0


Some options are useless i think. But it works. ;)
