i am using SUSE 11 with bash shell.

What exactly i am looking is differentiating the local and remote mounted folder either by color or some way because many times i though the remote shares as local directories and deleted them using rm.

i can restrict by read only in mounting but i need read write in target location


1) I need some way which throws some warning messaging like you are deleting from remote share or something similar to that which alerts me double check its local copy
2) At least differentiating the directories by color code

any help is much appreciated

thanks all
