Mounting without need for password

[rouwe111]

Hi guys,

I am trying to mount a network drive on startup. Everytime it asks for a password. How can I mount my network drive without filling in the password?

I have created a new mount in /etc/fstab:

Code: Select all

//192.168.1.5/   /mnt/mediabox   cifs   noauto   0   0

In my rc.local file I added the line:

Code: Select all

mount /mnt/mediabox

Thanks for your help!

You can pass the credentials / password to mount using the options switch ( -o).
See 'man mount.cifs' or e.g. http://linux.die.net/man/8/mount.cifs for more info.
