How to mount remote windows partition (windows share) under Linux

导读：

　　All files accessible in a Linux (and UNIX) system are arranged in one big tree, the file hierarchy, rooted at /. These files can be spread out over several devices. The mount command serves to attach the file system found on some device to the big file tree.

　　Use the mount command to mount remote windows partition or windows share under Linux as follows:

　　 Procedure to mount remote windows partition (NAS share)

　　1) Make sure you have following information:

　　==> Windows username and password to access share name

　　==> Sharename (such as //server/share) or IP address

　　==> root level access on Linux

　　2) Login to Linux as a root user (or use su command)

　　3) Create the required mount point:

　　# mkdir -p /mnt/ntserver

　　4) Use the mount command as follows:

　　# mount -t cifs //ntserver/download -o username=vivek,password=myPassword /mnt/ntserver

　　Use following command if you are using Old version such as RHEL <=4 or Debian <= 3:

　　# mount -t smbfs -o username=vivek,password=D1W4x9sw //ntserver/download /mnt/ntserver

　　5) Access Windows 2003/2000/NT share using cd and ls command:

　　# cd /mnt/ntserver; ls -l

　　Where,

　　 -t smbfs: File system type to be mount (outdated, use cifs)

　　 -t cifs: File system type to be mount

　　 -o: are options passed to mount command, in this example I had passed two options. First argument is password (vivek) and second argument is password to connect remote windows box

　　 //ntserver/download: Windows 2000/NT share name

　　 /mnt/ntserverLinux mount point (to access share after mounting)

　　I tried this command on my Ubuntu system but got the following error:

　　mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //server_name/Ubuntu_Backups,

　　missing codepage or other error

　　In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try

　　dmesg | tail or so

　　I also tried nfs but still no good. I have a windows server 2003 machine I am sharing to the ubuntu box.

　　michael / martin,

　　Use cifs option instead of smbfs (outdated and not supported).

　　HTH

　　francoSays: November 28th, 2007 at 7:56 pm

　　Martin, Michael, you must have smbfs installed to run cifs, so

　　$sudo aptitude install smbfs
