OS4.1 and Samba configuration question.

[Karlos]

I have a linux box with a samba share that contains my UAE installation and other shared development stuff that I have OS4.1 (and also 3.9 on my 1200T) connect to automatically on start-up.

For 4.1, I created a script called MountSMB in SYS:S/Shell/ with the following commands:

Code: [Select]

stack 65536
run >nil: *>nil: smbfs workgroup=megaburken2 user=****** password=****** service=//Megaburken-II/UAE device=SMB0: volume=UAE:

I then set the script file protection bit

Code: [Select]

protect S:Shell/MountSMB0 +s
and added the following to my S:User-Startup

Code: [Select]

MountSMB0
The samba share then pops up as a disk drive on the desktop (device name SMB0, volume name UAE).

I find smbfs great. I actually keep all my source code (which has x86/x64/PPC and m68k forks) on the linux box and have an assign on the OS4 machine. It actually compiles the code across the network

I'm even triggering the OS4 compile process from the linux box via telnet. How lazy is that?
