|Currently using
|
|mount -t smbfs -o username=xxx,pasword=xxx //servername/sharename
/mnt/share
|
|Since I can only mount as root, (not in /etc/fstab)
|
|sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=xxx,pasword=xxx //servername/sharename
|/mnt/share
|
|Problem here is.. I can't get group or world writeable permission on the
|share. It's a NTFS share but that is not a problem. I can write/read fine
|using root.
|
|What is the correct way to parse it to mount / smbmount to enable
|world/group writable? This is a home machine. No I-net. I don't care about
|the permissions.

use umask=000 in ount options

sudo mount -t smbfs -o umask=000,username=xxx,pasword=xxx
//servername/sharename
/mnt/share
