HI there,<br />
<br />
trying to run this script but it doesn't work and i am thinking it has something to do with the $ at the end of all users home folders. Could someone maybe help me writing this script correctly<br />
<br />
#!/bin/bash<br />
mkdir ~/WindowsHome<br />
mount_smbfs -N //$USER@windows-server.tes<wbr />t.com/$USE<wbr />R$ ~/WindowsHome<br />
<br />
the leading dollar is the script dollar and the trailing dollar is the hidden folder dollar<br />
<br />
any help appreciated lots of points up for grabs here :-)
