Filemanager and Samba
Installed Samba is required for this. Open Nautilus. In the Menu click Go and Enter Location or Ctrl+L.
Now you need to enter your useraccount, domain and password.
In the menu in bookmarks or with Crtl+d a bookmark for this folder will be added.
Using Terminal and GVfs
If you prefer to mount network drives using the terminal or want to automate this using a script, you have the option to do so using the 'gio' tool. 'gio' is capable of mounting SMB shares as GVfs mount points.
To mount the shares, use the following command:
gio mount smb://fs.hs-regensburg.de/storage gio mount smb://fs-home.hs-regensburg.de/home/<Username>
When executing the command, you will be prompted for a username, domain, and password. Enter 'hs-regensburg.de' as the domain.
If you want to unmount the shares, this is done using a parameter.
gio mount -u smb://fs.hs-regensburg.de/storage gio mount -u smb://fs-home.hs-regensburg.de/home/<Username>
If you don't want to enter your login credentials every time, you can create a simple text file with this data and pass it as a parameter to the command using input redirection.
The structure of the text file:
<Username> hs-regensburg.de <Passwort>
The text file is best saved in the home directory under /home/<Username>/.smbpass, and the permissions should be modified to ensure that only the user has access to it.
chmod 0600 /home/<Username>/.smboth
Subsequently, you can use this file when mounting the shares.
gio mount smb://fs.hs-regensburg.de/storage </home/<Username>/.smboth gio mount smb://fs-home.hs-regensburg.de/home/<Username> </home/<Username>/.smboth
Mount Command and CIFS
To mount the network shares under a Linux distribution the CIFS-part of the Samba project need to be installed.
Usually the package is named cifs-utils
, which should be available via your systems packagemanager.
# mount -t cifs //fs-<name>.hs-regensburg.de/<name> /mnt/<name> -o domain=hs-regensburg.de,user=abc12345
