![]() ![]() Simply by navigating to where the share is supposed to be will mount it there. Another benefit of autofs is that users no longer have to mount shares manually. Autofs will automatically mount fileshares on an as-needed basis and will automatically disconnect fileshares after an idle timeout period (which defaults to one hour). Fortunately, there’s a way around this that all our linux computers already use: autofs. At a certain point, this will become a problem. The more Macs we convert to LDAP/NFS, the more active connections we’ll have to our fileservers. Once a Mac user’s account has been migrated to LDAP, s/he can use NFS URLs in the Finder’s Connect to Server window and will see vastly superior performance to the previous SMB connections. Because our Mac users have mobile accounts with local homes, the move requires a bit of finagling, which is why Rich scripted the process. To remedy this, with the help of my colleague and Mac admin, Rich Trouton, we’ve started to migrate certain Mac users away from AD and SMB to LDAP and NFS. ![]() As the size of the scientific datasets people use grow, the (lack of) performance of SMB in Mac OS X becomes more of an issue - especially for people who know they can get far better performance in Windows and Linux. Our Macs bind to AD and therefore use SMB to access fileshares. The majority of our fileshares are located on Isilon gear and are accessible over SMB with AD authentication, and over NFS with LDAP authentication. And I dont know how to get there.I work in a mixed Mac/Windows/Linux environment. So, again, this brings me back to the possibility that I did not place the plist file in my root folder. When I typed "launchctl list" in the Terminal window, it returned a list of items and I did notice that it had a 1 in front of the plist file that I added. "/bin/bash: bad interpreter: Operation not permitted" When I typed in "/Scripts/mount.sh" in the Terminal window, it returned this message: I then attempted to run the checks you mentioned using Terminal. However, these changes did not seem to correct the problem. I also did the same for the actual mount.sh file. I did navigate to my "Scripts" folder using Finder and clicked "Get Info" I then changed all privileges for all names listed at the bottom of the window to "Read & Write". As I mentioned before, I'm not a computer programmer or developer, but just trying to follow the instructions as listed. You mentioned that if it didn't work to double-check permissions but I'm not sure where exactly you want this to be checked. I then restarted my computer, and unfortunately my NAS share called "media" did not automount. I then copied the second line of text you said needed to go in there. I was then prompted to enter my password, which I did. I then opened Terminal and copied the first line of text you said needed to go in there. I placed the plist file in my user/library/launchagent directory ĥ. Is this a problem? It did not seem to work either way I did it - using a "!" or using the special code.Ĥ. The URL encoding site you list does not give this as the special symbol for "!" but other URL encoding sites do. By the way, my true password contains an "!" so I substituted it with %21 in the script. I attached my textedit file just in case - passwords removed. I placed the mount.sh script and wolcmd file in my newly created folder and updated according to your instructions. Created a folder called "Scripts" and placed it in what I thought was my root folder ģ. Hi guys.i'm a newb.i've been trying to get this to work with no luck.
