I need a few linux guru's.
I am trying to get my ubuntu 7.10 laptop (wireless) client to be able to see shares from my xp (setup as a file server) desktop ( hardwired to same wireless router ). I have been using this guide : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mo...7b6660a8786c35
this is the error message i am getting: lucana@laptop:~$ sudo mount -a
Could not resolve mount point /home/lucana/desktop/mount
lucana@laptop:~$ this is my fstab config: # /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
# /dev/sda1
UUID=eafe81a0-359c-4f9e-8289-a2bdc8d1b196 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
# /dev/sda5
UUID=ff38c1b7-89b0-4066-84d4-687e910a18e7 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec 0 0
//media/e: /home/lucana/desktop/mount smbfs /home/lucana/.smbcredentials,uid=1000 0 0 this is my etc/nsswitch.conf: # /etc/nsswitch.conf
#
# Example configuration of GNU Name Service Switch functionality.
# If you have the `glibc-doc-reference' and `info' packages installed, try:
# `info libc "Name Service Switch"' for information about this file.
passwd: compat
group: compat
shadow: compat
hosts: files dns wins mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4
networks: files
protocols: db files
services: db files
ethers: db files
rpc: db files
netgroup: nis
this is my .smbcreditials file: lucana=lucana
password=password
# OR:
# username=MyUsername@MyDomain
# password=MyPassword
I have been working on this for about a week. I also tried samba following another guide and figured this would be better. Can anyone help me out please? Thanks for all your help
