Tell me what you think, or where i made mistakes, or what other tweaks you know.
Thanks ahead for some feedback.

Add a network drive LIN

Why: So you have a harddisk or some shared folder in your network here is how to make it permanently available.

Pro:

Con: -

Do: We will assume the harddisk, has the ip 192.168.0.1 and the share is named myshare. then username is Schorsch and the password is Scholle

1. $ su
2. Enter root password
3. $ apt-get install samba smbfs
4. $ mkdir /mnt/myshare
5. $ nano etc/fstab
6. Add the following at the end of the file:

//192.168.10.1/myshare /mnt/myshare smbfs rw,users,root,username=schorsch,password=istmorsch 0 0

7. Save and Exit nano
8. $ exit
9. Reboot
You don't need to reboot, you can simply:

Code: Select all

#mount -a
Nice tips. I will keep reading. You may want to look at the antix docs and mepis wiki for some info.
