| I have a windows computer I am mounting over samba. I can mount as a regular user but I can't unmount as a regular user. How do I do this? Here is my fstab entry: //THE-BRICK/movies /home/smb/brick smbfs username=ed,password=,uid=the251,user,owner,ro 0 0 The directory permissions are like so: ed@iggy:~$ ls -ld /home/smb/brick/ drwxr-xr-x 1 the251 users 4096 Dec 15 16:48 /home/smb/brick// -thanx, ryan |

And read 'man mount' and 'man fstab' Blumf -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAGi1xMid3IcxolsoRAqw4AJ9SINnSmFyTqgOeYM9xya rHApkJXgCeI2cr +vWuy8Gkd6Kc4r1f/jj7xQs= =kPYl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- |

You need to be aware that a filesystem can't be umounted if it is "busy". If you have any processes with their current working directory in that filesystem, nobody will be able to umount it... If root can umount it but a regular user can't, then you need to spend some time reading the man page on mount... -- Athol <http://cust.idl.com.au/athol> Linux Registered User # 254000 I'm a Libran Engineer.
