This may not be revelant but i figured i’d post this anyway. If you’re using ubuntu 8.10 you may be in for some issues with the network manager. For some unknown reason it stops functioning. You will need to manually set you’re resolv.conf with your ISP’s DNS servers. That file is located in /etc/network/resolv.conf

media.ubuntu-nl.org doesn’t seem to be available anymore (www.ubuntu-nl.org still works, so the’ve just removed the sub-domain). I can’t find where if anywhere this script has moved to unfortunately…

I can’t locate diskmounter script anywhere. Has it been removed?

Thanks.

If you want to setup a network sharing drive you must have a drive mounted. And after that you must configure trough Samba or any other methods to share your hard drive to your network. If you are sharing from Linux to Windows you must have to do lots of configurations trough samba and getting things mount up together. But it is possible could you please be more specific so I could aid you a little help?

USB Devices will often be not found by this script, Debian Linux should find this as an USB Mass Storrage device.

If you want to mount your external hard drive to a directory I did prefer for you to follow a manual way to mount it. Since external drives are beeing put on and of only when need for some specified backups or data. I did not recommend to put it in your mount folder.

In case you want to do it you seem to have to do it manually:

This guide should be okay for doing it.

This is very handy for Linux newbies, and even (lazy) experts .
Tank you!
