I'm sorry if I misunderstand, but after reading your mail, I have 2
assumtions:
1. Users use debian with gnome/gdm in the different machine and need
to mount the share everytime they log in.
Create a directory for mounting user share.
Then create a file with 0700 for everyuser place in a save place :
#!/bin/bash
smbmount //serveraddress/sharedfolder /pathtomountingpoint -o
username=whatever,password=pwd;
exit 0;
add these line to $HOME/user/.bashrc :
if [ -f PATHTOSCRIPTFILE ]; then
. PATHTOSCRIPTFILE;
fi
that's all.
2. Users use windows :
Create a batch file with these lines and place it in a very safe
place.
@echo off
net use Z: \\serveraddress\sharedfolder /user:username password
you can modify the drive letter to suit your need.
open regedit ( Start->Run->Regedit )
browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current
Version\Run
create a String value give the unique name and modify its content
"PATHTOBATCHFILE"
Or just place the file into user's Startup folder.
cheers,
