[Rule-list] mounting windows shares and slinky

[hairylarry]

Hi,

Samba works great for mounting windows shares. I installed smbclient and 
attached to a windows system on my network.

However, I don't think there is any way it will work in slinky.

The requirements list is as long as my arm and starts with glibc an 8 meg file. 
It looks like either a cdrom or a network 
connection is required to supply the files needed by samba. And, of course, if 
you have a cdrom or network connection you 
don't need samba to access a windows share, slinky already does cds and 
networks.

There may be some other way of accomplishing this but I don't think samba will 
work for us. Maybe the web server idea Devon 
threw out.

I do however think samba will be a great rule application. After a slinky 
install is complete install these rpms.

samba-common
samba-client

All dependencies are already installed. These files could be included in 
extra_packages for transparency. And rulerc.sh could 
copy this smb script into the path.

I found the script called smb on linux gazette. It simplifies syntax but I need 
a little help with. I posted it here.

There is a test for directory existence that is giving me an error. The problem 
area reads, if [ ! d /mnt/$1 ]; 

If I don't get the source code looking good in the wiki click EditText for 
plain text code.

Thanks,
