I am new to Knoppix, and I think Knoppix is great, I have been able to move the CD to my hard drive and using KPH 0.4 I can boot from a floppy and run Knoppix. Now I would like to use Samba to access my windows shares but when I use the following command,

"mkdir tmp/share; sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=Administrator //otherbox/share /tmp/share"

to mount my shares I get the message "unable to resolve mount point /tmp/share".

What am I doing wrong? Please help. :(

Hi Prototask!

I guess it's because you forgot the slash (/) in front of "tmp/share" in the mkdir statement!?

Bye, Matthias

Thanks Schwarze, the obvious can make you look really stupid.
