I used
#mount starforge -fstype=cifs,ro,credentials=/etc/.autofs.smbpasswd
://starforge/E\$
And got no error message. Entering
#mount ;gives me
starforge on ://starforge/E$ type
ype=cifs,ro,credentials=/etc/.autofs.smbpasswd (rw)
All is well so far I think.
Cd'ing to /windows/Starforge gives me "-bash: cd: /windows/starforge/: No such
file or directory". 8-/

Pinging Starforge by name works, I added it all to the hosts-file, ie the
trivial windows name, FQDN and ip too.
In /etc/.autofs.smbpasswd I have the credentials set to User Name =
domainname/username. The account in question is a domain admin account, and as
such should have access to all of the E-drive on the Win-machine.
I'll try setting the cred's as username@domainname instead and see if there's
any difference.
