 =====Background===== =====Background=====
-State the idea or purpose of the projectWhat are you attempting to pursue?+  * CIFS or Common Internet File System, is a way for me to easily reach my SMB shares as it runs the SMB protocol 
 +  * CIFS will allow me to mount a share using a single credential. 
 +  * The reason for doing this is because Windows uses a different file system than linux
  
-Upon approval, you'll want to fill this section out with more detailed background information. DO NOT JUST PROVIDE A LINK. 
  
-Providing any links to original source material, such as from a project page, is a good idea. 
  
-You'll want to give a general overview of what is going to be accomplished (for example, if your project is about installing a web server, do a little write-up on web servers. What is it, why do we need one, how does it work, etc.) 
- 
-=====Scope===== 
-Give a general overview of your anticipated implementation of the project. Address any areas where you are making upfront assumptions or curtailing potential detail. State the focus you will be taking in implementation. 
- 
-=====Attributes===== 
-State and justify the attributes you'd like to receive upon successful approval and completion of this project. 
- 
-  * attribute1: why you feel your pursuit of this project will gain you this attribute 
-  * attribute2: why you feel your pursuit of this project will gain you this attribute 
-  * etc... 
  
 =====Procedure===== =====Procedure=====
-The actual steps taken to accomplish the projectInclude imagescode snippets, command-line excerpts; whatever is useful for intuitively communicating important information for accomplishing the project.+* I begin by install it 
 +{{:opus:fall2014:jkosty6:cifs.jpg|}} 
 +  * This installs almost all of the samba tools as well 
 +  * Decided I would place the mount points in /mnt and made the directories 
 +{{:opus:fall2014:jkosty6:mnt1.jpg|}} 
 +  * Next I need to specify the way that the share is being mounted 
 +  * This is specified in /etc/fstab to make it automatic 
 +  * I added the lines with 192.168.1.253 
 +{{:opus:fall2014:jkosty6:mnt12.jpg|}} 
 +  - The IP is the IP of the file server the files are stored onSERVER-FILES 
 +  - Multimedia and Downloads are the shares the file folders are in 
 +  - \040 is the way of representing a space in a address 
 +  - /mnt/abcd specifies the location the share will be mounted on the file system 
 +  - cifs specifies the mount type 
 +  - credentials are stored in a separate file /etc/cifspasswd .. really not needed but I like to 
 +  - file mode and directory mode decide the control over the mount .. 777 may not be the best for production but fine for testing 
 +  * To mount without restart I do a mount -a 
 +  * Upon checking the mount locations, I can see it was successful all my "legitimate" movies are there 
 +{{:opus:fall2014:jkosty6:mountfinished.jpg|}} 
 +  * The same can be said for the music 
 +{{:opus:fall2014:jkosty6:mountfinished2.jpg|}} 
 +  * Something always important to check is that the special characters are coming in right. Dont want half you music to not show up 
 +{{:opus:fall2014:jkosty6:specialchars1.jpg|}} 
 +  * Although it shows up, I may have to change settings in subsonic and plex itself later on
  
-=====Code===== 
-Upon completion of the project, if there is an applicable collection of created code, place a copy of your finished code within <nowiki><code> </code></nowiki> blocks here. 
  
-<code c> 
-/* 
- * hello.c - A sample "Hello, World!" program 
-  
- * written by NAME for COURSE on DATE 
- * 
- * compile with: 
-   gcc -o hello hello.c 
- * 
- * execute with: 
-   ./hello 
- */ 
- 
-#include <stdio.h> 
- 
-int main() 
-{ 
-    printf("Hello, World!\n");    // Output message to STDOUT 
-    return(0); 
-} 
-</code> 
- 
-=====Execution===== 
-Again, if there is associated code with the project, and you haven't already indicated how to run it, provide a sample run of your code: 
- 
-<cli> 
-lab46:~/src/cprog$ ./hello 
-Hello, World! 
-lab46:~/src/cprog$  
-</cli> 
  
 =====Reflection===== =====Reflection=====
-Comments/thoughts generated through performing the projectobservations made, analysis rendered, conclusions wroughtWhat did you learn from doing this project? +I am sure there are many more efficient ways to do what I have done. The most obvious is to not use windows at all. Unfortunatelythis is not an option at the timeI do occasionally experience speed issues with this setup, but I have been unable to find the cause. It's probably a driver issue.
