SOLVED:mounted shares locally, but see no files /mnt/samba/*

[cpeddie]

Hi,

I've installed the mount shares locally script, and it appears to execute fine, but when I look at /mnt/samba/<share> I see none of the files that are in that share. If I go to the share remotely (via both Mac and PC), all the files in the share are there, and I can watch movies, view the pictures etc. If I look at /var/hda/files/<share>, all the symlinks are there, and looking directly into the greyhole pool /var/hda/files/<drive>/gh/<share> looks good as well. I keep reading everywhere in the forums and the wiki to work on the shares via the local mount, but I'm unable to do so.

/etc/samba/smb.conf and /etc/greyhole.conf match as far as share names and set goes, and greyhole log is not giving any errors. When I check the mount table though, it doesn't show that there are any mount points at /mnt/samba/*. How can I make sure the mount_shares_locally script is executing correctly and mounting them? I'm guessing one of the following lines in the script:
mysql -u root -phda -e "select name from shares" hda_production | grep -v "^name$" | xargs -d "\n" mkdir -p
OR
/sbin/mount.cifs "//127.0.0.1/$d" "$d" -o credentials=/home/${username}/.smb_credentials,uid=${uid},gid=${gid},file_mode=0660,dir_mode=0770,nobrl,hard,_netdev,iocharset=utf8,noserverino,mfsymlinks
is where things are messing up.

Rebooted a couple of times with the same result. Any guidance?

Thanks,

Is this Amahi 7?

Verify you completed all the steps in the wiki.

The script works fine, so guessing you must have missed a step.

I neglected to pay attention to the line:
This script needs /sbin/mount.cifs, so make sure to install cifs-utils or similar, as needed.

in the wiki. Once I installed the package, everything works fine. I would recommend you update the wiki to more explicity state:
"This script needs /sbin/mount.cifs to operate properly. To install, type the following:
sudo yum install cifs-utils"

Then it will be a little clearer to doobs like myself who don't pay enough attention.

Glad you got it working.

Agreed and it is now the first line in the guidance to install that dependency.

I think in the past it might have been installed by default, but not with Fedora 19 obviously.

Thanks for the feedback.
