I tried to mount a samba share from the local network to a folder in my PC. I added the following line in fstab
sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.5/my/folder/ /home/mounts/localmount/
But when I do sudo mount -a
, it gives the following error:-
[mntent]: line 13 in /etc/fstab is bad
Can anyone tell me what I did wrong? I'm on Ubuntu 12.10, so sudo smbmount //hostname/sharename ~/mounts/sharename -o user=username
wont work [source]
