The share is protected by a gvfs-mount error mounting location location is not mountable user name and password, and I may not write the password in a file, I want to be prompted for the password at mount time. I need a solution that works even for when the user on the client machine does not have any administrative privileges, so whatever method is used to mount the share must not allow him to get root permissions. The initial installation can be done as root. Users must be able to specify arbitrary server names. My immediate need is with Ubuntu 12.04, but the wider applicable a solution is the better. The client is headless, so I'm looking for a command-line tool. What I tried: mount.cifs: while it can be made setuid root, its authors do not consider it secure. Running it under sudo has the same problem. smbnetfs, fusesmb: I couldn't convince either of them to prompt me for a password. Nautilus and gvfs: gvfs-mount smb://servername/sharename fails with Error mounting location: volume doesn't implement mount.

The remote volume will be mounted under ~/.gvfs. The reason you can't mount using URLs is because mount doesn't recognize URLs. share|improve this answer edited Apr 29 '10 at 3:24 answered Apr 29 '10 at 3:04 Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams 33.7k24664 I tried that and it say "Error mounting location: volume doesn't implement mount" –John Apr 29 '10 at 3:07 I used this command "sudo gvfs-mount smb://SERVER/wwwroot /media/sputold_server " –John Apr 29 '10 at 3:11 Changed my post –John Apr 29 '10 at 3:17 That would be because gvfs-mount isn't used for mounting parts of the local filesystem. Remove both the sudo and the "/media/...". –Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams Apr 29 '10 at 3:23 1 Try executing export $(dbus-launch) before you use gvfs-mount`.

samba shares for machines inside an ADS network.. Edit Remove 2 Affects Status Importance Assigned to Milestone gvfs (Ubuntu) Edit Invalid Low Ubuntu Desktop Bugs Edit Also affects project (?) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/208302 Also affects distribution/package Nominate for series Bug Description After upgrading to Hardy Beta, I cannot access windows shares anymore: $ gnomevfs-ls smb://server.dom.ain/ blah (Directory, x-directory/smb-share) size 0 (...) $ gvfs-ls smb://server.dom.ain/ $ nothing happens! smbclient can access the windows server too. The 'network neighbourhood' does work though: $ gnomevfs-ls smb:// workgroup (Regular, application/x-desktop) size 0 mshome (Regular, application/x-desktop) size 0 (...) $ gvfs-ls smb:// MSHOME WORKGROUP (...) error mounting $ Same thing happens in nautilus, of course: I can access the toplevel windows network, but looking into a domain/workgroup/server or share doesn't work. One more thing: I can access shares gnomevfs, but not with gvfs: $ gnomevfs-ls smb://server.dom.ain/share . (Directory, x-directory/normal) size 0 mode 0755 ..
