Hello,

Can someone point me to a definitive howto on cifs mounts on Suse/Linux.
(using 9.1, 9.3, 10.0)

In /etc/fstab, I have something similar below;

<snip>
//windows_server/smbshare /mnt/smb_dir cifs
workgroup=our_group,password=xxxx,fmask=777,dmask=777,,username=someone 0
0
<snip>

Whenever I try to mount it I get the following errors;

WARNING: 'fmask' not expressed in octal.

use 0777 instead of 777

WARNING: CIFS mount option 'fmask' is deprecated. Use 'file_mode' instead.
WARNING: 'dmask' not expressed in octal.
WARNING: CIFS mount option 'dmask' is deprecated. Use 'dir_mode' instead.

... and from /var/log/messages;
Jun 29 17:02:38 server-1 kernel: CIFS: Unknown mount option fmask
Jun 29 17:02:38 server-1 kernel: CIFS: Unknown mount option dmask

I'd like to use /etc/samba/smbfstab with credentials, but I seem to mung
that up to the point that I can't mount the smbmounts.

Any and all help is most welcome. The man page isn't helping or, more than
likely, I am missing something.

Thank you,

James
