smfs with crenditals

[doublejz]

Ok so I have a windows share that I'm trying to mount on boot. If I do the following, it works but I have to press enter at the password prompt. Its also not secure.

root@analyzer:/# mount -t smbfs //192.168.6.239/data /mnt/data

I thought I could do the following but its not working.

root@analyzer:/# mount -t smbfs -o username=data, password=here //192.168.6.239/data /mnt/data

Usage: mount -V : print version
mount -h : print this help
mount : list mounted filesystems
mount -l : idem, including volume labels
So far the informational part. Next the mounting.
The command is `mount [-t fstype] something somewhere'.
Details found in /etc/fstab may be omitted.
mount -a [-t|-O] ... : mount all stuff from /etc/fstab
mount device : mount device at the known place
mount directory : mount known device here
mount -t type dev dir : ordinary mount command
Note that one does not really mount a device, one mounts
a filesystem (of the given type) found on the device.
One can also mount an already visible directory tree elsewhere:
mount --bind olddir newdir
or move a subtree:
mount --move olddir newdir
One can change the type of mount containing the directory dir:
mount --make-shared dir
mount --make-slave dir
mount --make-private dir
mount --make-unbindable dir
One can change the type of all the mounts in a mount subtree
containing the directory dir:
mount --make-rshared dir
mount --make-rslave dir
mount --make-rprivate dir
mount --make-runbindable dir
A device can be given by name, say /dev/hda1 or /dev/cdrom,
or by label, using -L label or by uuid, using -U uuid .
Other options: [-nfFrsvw] [-o options] [-p passwdfd].
For many more details, say man 8 mount .
root@analyzer:/#


All the examples I see say to use -o but it's not liking it.

TIA

Using credentials is actually part of the smbmount program, which is called by mount when you use -t smbfs. Though it's not recommended, you can mount with smbmount to supply the credentials this way or in a file.

man smbmount for more information.
