Automount Samba Shares with CIFS

Re: Consider "mount controls" for media & external
Mx linux does this very well. It has those mount tools already preinstalled, actually almost every useful tool possible for the user is in GUI. Not sure if it's all in house coded but he has done an exceptional job. Even samba preconfigured. We should somehow get the mx dev to jump on the mint team

Re: [ fstab ] Automount network folders not working
Sorry for the delay in responding, but shortly after my last post, I solved my problem by implementing the following in my personal scrips and no longer have mounting issues. However, I still have to force umount before the system suspends, which i use my personal script to either force mount or unm...

Re: Problems with Samba and Mint20
I've been having this same problem, but I tried following the instructions in this post and nothing worked. I know I'm doing something wrong, but I'm clueless as to what that could be. I tried this: lanman auth = yes ntlm auth = yes client min protocol = nt1 client max protocol = smb3 Then I tried ...

Re: Problems with Samba and Mint20
I did not use the mkdir command first. I'm going to wait cuz I ordered a newer router and I want to see if that makes a difference. I'll post back when that arrives and I get it installed. Thanks for your help though. No new router will fix this issue. you need to create the folders in your /mnt on...

Re: [ fstab ] Automount network folders not working
Another strange behaviour noted. When M21 is in sleep mode over night, the mount point is being disconnected or unmounted when the system goes into sleep mode, causing it to not be available when the system wakes up. The location of mnt/windows-data doesnt mount and dosn't display its contents, unle...

Re: [ fstab ] Automount network folders not working
Strange behaviour. After succesfully carrying out the above task, M21 takes awhile to restart . It hangs for awhile before rebooting. Changed the following parameters in /etc/systemd/system.conf from 90s to 4s to see if it would speed up the shut down. But this didnt work? DefaultTimeoutStartSec=4s ...

Re: [ fstab ] Automount network folders not working
That did the trick! Steps taken: Renamed shared folder/partion to " windowsdata ": no space in-between on server Amended line in fstab as suggested: //w11-server/windowsdata /mnt/windows-data cifs credentials=/etc/samba/credentials,uid=tolga,gid=samba,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,x-system...

Re: [ fstab ] Automount network folders not working
Save the file then do some systemd stuff:
Code: Select all
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
THen check the contents of the mountpoint:Code: Select all
sudo systemctl restart remote-fs.target
Is it mounted?Code: Select all
ls -l /mnt/windows-data
I ssaw this on one of your threads. Will try either tonight or tommorow. Thanks for the feedback.

Re: [ fstab ] Automount network folders not working
Oh no, that seems a bit too advanced for me. I might consider installing MXLinux 21.3 instead and see how it goes. One of the things that attracted me to it is the user-friendly utilities for automounting and adding shared folders. They have dialog windows that are similar to what you'd see on Windo...

Re: [ fstab ] Automount network folders not working
Hi guys, tried both suggestions and nothing works. Screenshot from 2023-04-29 18-14-20-min.png mnt-min.png zero.png Just as a side note, i did bookmark the windows-data & linux data after mkdir them. Also, tried sudo mkdir -p /mnt/linux-data after deleting the original folders and no difference.

Re: [ fstab ] Automount network folders not working
Add 2 more options to your fstab mount declarations: noauto,x-systemd.automount Example: //w11-server/windows\040data /mnt/windows-data cifs credentials=/etc/samba/credentials,uid=tolga,gid=samba,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,iocharset=utf8,sec=krb5 ,noauto,x-systemd.automount 0 0 Your system is rea...

Re: [solved] menu@cinnamon.org modification - icons
Hi all,
I'm having trouble following this workaround. So I exported my menu JSON file, but the problem I'm having is figuring out where to put the code snippets to change the menu icons (Logoff, lock screen, quit)
I'm using the Yaru Mint icon pack.
Thank you in advance.

Re: Images too small via Firefox/Chrome file manager to upload
Yes, it appears that this is how Linux employs the system's default file manager.
It's a shame that Linux desktop will be stigmatised as incomplete for years to come.

Hi all I believe we're all misinterpreting what I'm asking. On the local machine, I have no trouble viewing thumbnails with nemo or nautilus. What I'm having trouble with is that when I use Firefox or Chrome to upload an image, the file manager that the internet browsers use displays the images so s...

Images too small via Firefox/Chrome file manager to upload
Hi everybody, When attempting to upload using LinuxMint's built-in file manager, the images/files are displayed in an insufficient size. This issue appears to be a persistent one using Firefox or Chrome's built-in default manager for posting the necessary files (especially images). I don't think I'v...
