Yesterday I was looking for how to mount a samba share without sudo permissions. Here is a website that I found that explain how to enable smbmnt to be used by any user that is not root. Basically what is doing is changing permissions of the commands with this commands:

$ sudo chmod u+s `which smbmnt`
$ sudo chmod u+s `which smbumount`

I have the following in Fstab:

//NAS/UBUNTU          /home/wayne/SMB/NAS-Ubuntu      smbfs            
defaults   0   0


I also have it set up in Samba:



Every time I boot, I have to drop to a terminal and:     sudo mount 
/home/wayne/SMB/NAS-Ubuntu

It asks for a password.


QUESTION:   Can I setup the system to automatically mount the share 
without asking for the password?
