To make permanent mounts, I put the entries in /etc/fstab and ignore the auto-mount daemon completely.
I was concerned that if you have a mount point /a/b/c/d and when the server is booting, /a/b fails to mount, then the mount point will not be there. It could also be that the mount sequence is incorrect, so it tries to mount /a/b/c/d first and fails then mounts /a/b and you are left wondering why.
As I requested before, can you paste /etc/fstab into the thread?
Regards,
Robin

I can ping my Windows PC using both the IP address and NetBios name and I can ping my Linux box the same, IP address and NetBios name. I can even use smbclient to see the shares on my Windows PC. But I can't map the shares so that Linux sees it as a drive. How do I do that? (5 Replies)

nfsmount.conf
NFSMOUNT.CONF(5) File Formats Manual NFSMOUNT.CONF(5)
NAME
nfsmount.conf - Configuration file for NFS mounts
SYNOPSIS
Configuration file for NFS mounts that allows options to be set globally, per server or per mount point.
DESCRIPTION
The configuration file is made up of multiple sections followed by variables associated with that section. A section is defined by a
string enclosed by [ and ] branches. Variables are assignment statements that assign values to particular variables using the = operator,
as in Proto=Tcp. Sections are broken up into three basic categories: Global options, Server options and Mount Point options.
[ NFSMount_Global_Options ] - This statically named section defines all of the global mount options that can be applied to every NFS mount.
[ Server "Server_Name" ] - This section defines all the mount options that should be used on mounts to a particular NFS server. The
"Server_Name" strings needs to be surrounded by '"' and be an exact match of the server name used in the mount command.
[ MountPoint "Mount_Point" ] - This section defines all the mount options that should be used on a particular mount point. The
"Mount_Point" string needs to be surrounded by '"' and be an exact match of the mount point used in the mount command.
EXAMPLES
These are some example lines of how sections and variables are defined in the configuration file.
[ NFSMount_Global_Options ]
Proto=Tcp
The TCP protocol will be used on every NFS mount.
[ Server "nfsserver.foo.com" ]
rsize=32k
wsize=32k
A 33k (32768 bytes) block size will be used as the read and write size on all mounts to the 'nfsserver.foo.com' server.
[ MountPoint "/export/home" ]
Background=True
All mounts to the '/export/home' export will be performed in the background (i.e. done asynchronously).
