Well, I am a tyro admin, so not to worry. You found it was a mount point, does df say it is mounted? If not, it needs to be mounted, and if so, it is not working very well, hence the Samba reference. SAMBA is open source SMB software. SMB is the way windows does many net tasks, like mounting drives and displaying remote systems in the network part of Windows Explorer. It is a challenging area, like learning NFS in a foreign language, especially as Windows keeps upgrading the protocols and authentication to fix security issues.

df gives the following output:

Quote:
df: open of RTIPDC2:/SAMBA failed
Right on, confused...haven't started dealing with mount points and file system issues yet...
Thanks for your help

Maybe you can get a look at this : Re: Samba Question

By the way, not sure wether it applies to you or not, but you can have a look at this as well.

Maybe it will give you some clue or ideas.
