Thanks - I'm just wondering why the articles (and the smb usability
print out) seemed to be giving the wrong syntax.
Another article stated that I could mount samba shares using fstab. But
when I tried this, I encountered the problem that the network interface
wasn't up in time.
Is there any way of doing this?
