Automount Windows Network Share at Boot Suse 11
Greetings and thank you in advance for your assistance,
I am using openSuse 11.0 and trying to automount a Windows XP network share at boot through editing the fstab. I have not been successful. I can browse the share with Samba protocol "smb://Window_Server/Share. The share appears in "My Computer" on the Linux box but does not automount at boot and when I right click on it in My Computer and select the mount option, I get a "Permissions Denied" error message. Below is a copy of my fstab for review. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I had successfully done this when using openSuse 10.0 but understand that things work differently in 11.
Thank you
fstab:

Might not work for you
I don't run SUSE 11 - but I did try this out... "cifs" as the third argument didn't work for me. I had to use "smbfs" instead.
Hope this helps - let me know either way.
