The smbfs filesystem
The smbfs filesystem is a mountable SMB filesystem for Linux. It does
not run on any other systems.
Up until recently smbfs has not been maintained as nobody in the Samba
Team used it. This has now changed, and Andrew Tridgell tridge@linuxcare.com has taken
over maintainence.
A new release of smbmount will be in the 2.0.6 release of Samba.
Compiling smbmount
If you install a binary RPM of Samba then you should find that
smbmount is already built for you. Otherwise you will need to build it
from the Samba sources.
- Grab the latest Samba sources and unpack them
- Configure with "./configure --with-smbmount"
- Compile using "make"
- Run "make install"
After that you should read the smbmount man page for info on using smbmount
