Re: [Wlug] Mounting Windows Shares on Solaris

by Chuck Noyes

Answering my own post... If I bring up the Java desktop and go to "Network Places" and enter "smb://Windows-hostname/share", it works - I can see the files on the Windows host. I have no idea how this works! Nothing gets mounted - the mount command shows the windows host isn't mounted. Is this accomplished through the "magic" of Java? I can't figure out how to do this through the command line, which is what I really need to do. I'll keep at it and see what happens. -Chuck On Dec 12, 2009, at 11:09 AM, Chuck Noyes wrote: > Hi All, > > Maybe a bit [OT], but I've got a Solaris 10u8 host, and I'd like to be able to mount a Windows share on the Solaris box. > I don't think Solaris supports the smbfs or cifs file systems (at least I can't find any evidence of it).

Re: [Wlug] Mounting Windows Shares on Solaris

by Adam Gomes

Is it Solaris or OpenSolaris? If it's OpenSolaris, It does support FUSE, and you can probably abstract the SMB stuff through fuse. If not, then the proposed NFS solution is probably your only option.

Re: [Wlug] Mounting Windows Shares on Solaris

I would share the share via NFS.

Re: [Wlug] Mounting Windows Shares on Solaris

by Jorden Mauro

On Linux, you need to fiddle with the kernel to mount new filesystem types. I would think it's the same with Slowlaris. Unless they have something like FUSE. There might be a module you need to compile/load. I'm pretty sure I've seen it done, though.

Mounting Windows Shares on Solaris

by Chuck Noyes

Hi All, Maybe a bit [OT], but I've got a Solaris 10u8 host, and I'd like to be able to mount a Windows share on the Solaris box. I don't think Solaris supports the smbfs or cifs file systems (at least I can't find any evidence of it). So a command like: "mount -F smbfs //windows-host/share /mnt" won't work. Has anyone done this? I've installed all the samba executables in /usr/bin and in /usr/sbin on the Solaris box, so there is samba support in Solaris, but I can't seem to mount the Windows share. TIA, -Chuck

GnuPG Documentation

by Gary Hanley

My head hurts! Can anyone help? :-) I'm googling like crazy but for the life of me can not find any information on the values of the usage flags displayed in GnuPG when you --edit-key and list. For example (from a website): pub 4096R/7C11053D created: 2009-10-12 expires: never usage: SC trust: ultimate validity: ultimate sub 4096R/55D59203 created: 2009-10-12 expires: never usage: E Maybe it's obvious but does anyone know the value of "SC" and "E". And, how about the value of all potential flags? My problem involves other flags. I assumed I could find this in 30 seconds. No go. I can't find anything about key details. So any help would be appreciated. Thanks! -- Gary
