Re: fstab auto mounting smb/cifs on boot while securing your client machine. thanks to home encryption.
Access by other users depends on where you mounted the share and how you mounted the share. If I mount in my home directory ( not recommended ) or under /media/altair ( not crazy about that location either ) it will only be accessible to me. But remember that CIFS creates a virtual filesystem. You ...

Re: UUID confusion
I'm assuming you mean you want to mount it under /home ... as in /home/some-mount-point and not at /home itself. If you mount something at /home you would obfuscate your own home directory. Anhyoo, I personally think the Disks utility is an abomination but where it says Identify As it's a combo box ...

Re: fstab auto mounting smb/cifs on boot while securing your client machine. thanks to home encryption.
This may be overly persnickety but this comment is not technically correct: user = this option allows any user to mount it as a user. no need for sudo. This is what user means: user Allow an ordinary user to mount the filesystem. The name of the mounting user is written to the mtab file (or to the p...

Re: [SOLVED]chown setting root as owner instead of my chosen user for NTFS drive
Using the "permissions" option on an NTFS partition in Linux requires you to essentially create lookup tables on Windows that states "this linux user = this windows user" and in Linux that states "this windows user = this linux user". I have never met anyone that hasn't...

Re: Still need help with permission error mounting drives
Just to be clear about all this it's not that you can't mount the shares. It's not that you can't access the shares since they are on the side panel of Thunar or worst case at the gvfs mount points. The problem is they do not show up on the desktop -- in XFCE. There's an open bug report on this: xfd...

@taltamir Your post makes no sense whatsoever. You can't chown, chmod, chanything an NTFS partition. Post the output of the line in /etc/fstab that is mounting this partition to /mnt/D Someone here can tell you how to add uid=t to your fstab declaration --- if it is a NTFS partition. Or what to do w...

Re: HDD Storage Mounted Poorly?
Hi Altair4, I'm confused whether the drive is mounted at /mnt, or is mounted at a subdirectory of mnt/, i.e. mnt/7b479b37-0f01-4a7d-8dec-4c1ba0b7a6c8. Are you advising creating a subdirectory within /mnt, i.e. mnt/Storage to mount the drive? I think this is what AndyMH is advising. [I think it woul...

Re: HDD Storage Mounted Poorly?
If you're asking for an opinion I think it would make way more sense to mount this partition to /mnt/Storage since Storage is the partitions LABEL. If you ever need to do anything in a terminal that needs to reference that mount point it will be far easier with less opportunity to make typos than us...

Re: HDD Storage Mounted Poorly?
From man mount: user Allow an ordinary user to mount the filesystem. The name of the mounting user is written to mtab so that he can unmount the filesystem again. Only the user that mounts the partition can unmount it. The user that mounts the partition via fstab is root so only root can unmount the...

I'm confused. Your error message states:

Re: SMB access to NAS uses SMB1, but should use SMB2 or SMB3
Regrettably there is no Linux wsdd client outside of KDE and even that is easily broken. That isn't entirely true, wsdd can now act as a client, see 'man wsdd', I just cannot get wsdd to do both at the same time.

my Dell Linux Box could mount the HP's box using "hp-z220-sff-workstation" as the host, but now on this setup I can only mount it by its IP address. I actually have no idea why that host name works at all but it is likely you are not limited to using an ip address. The 15 character limit ...
