Sharity allows you to mount Windows Networking (CIFS) shares as if they are part of the local filesystem. This means you can access files on Bristol or Gall directly from the p670 without having to SFTP or otherwise copy them.
To use Sharity to mount the SAN (Bristol):
- Login to the desired Windows server using cifslogin.
cifslogin bristol -U username -D WIN
Enter your SAN password when prompted. Note: WIN is the domain for Bristol.
- Make a directory for the mount point using mkdir.
mkdir ~/net/bristol
mkdir ~/net/bristol/biac
This only needs to be done the first time.
- Mount the share using cifsmount.
cifsmount //bristol/biac ~/net/bristol/biac
Make sure to substitute your actual username in these commands.
To use Sharity to mount some shares on Gall:
cifslogin gall -U username -D BIAC
mkdir ~/net/gall
mkdir ~/net/gall/programs
cifsmount //gall/programs ~/net/gall/programs
mkdir ~/net/gall/users
cifsmount //gall/users ~/net/gall/users Note: BIAC is the domain for Gall (and the other BIAC servers).
To unmount a mounted share use cifsumount:
cifsumount ~/net/bristol/biac
cifsumount ~/net/gall/programs
cifsumount ~/net/gall/users To view the help for an individual command use -h with the particular command. (e.g. cifsmount -h). View a list of available commands using sharity -h.
