   EasyMounter and cifsmount Q's   
   23 Sep 03 17:09:06   
   
   From: reidrik_von@hotmail.com   
      
   A complete BeOS newbie here trying to get EasyMounter version 0.8 BONE to   
   work on my 5.0PE install.  I'd like to be able to mount a shared folder on   
   my XP machine.  I have downloaded and installed the app and when I try and   
   launch the easy  mounter icon, I get an error that reads:   
      
   Could not open "EasyMounter" (Missing Library:   
   libbind.so)   
      
   Any thoughts on what the problem is?  Do I need to be running anything in   
   conjunction with EasyMounter to get it to work?   
      
   Also, I understand that all Easymounter does is act as a front-end to the   
   command line utility cifsmount.  I tried using this command line from a   
   terminal window but was unsuccessful and the displayed Help did not help...   
   Could someone let me know exactly what to enter given the following:   
   -the home network consists mainly of windows machines on a workgroup call   
   ABC   
   -the XP machine that has the shared folder that I want to access is called   
   GOATHEAD   
   -the shared folder on the XP machine is DOCUMENTS   
   -there is a user account PHIL that has no password   
   -my router/hub does the dhcp and the be box has internet connectivity   
      
   what to i enter to mount the DOCUMENTS folder?   
      
   Many thanks!
