Re: ssh and mount


Hello lhall,

Thanks ! I understand now.

lpmuc> This is a common question (as the email archives could testify).  
lpmuc> Password-based authentication uses Windows to do the authentication,
lpmuc> so you get the user's mount table (which is currently stored in the 
lpmuc> registry).  Public key cannot authenticate through Windows so you get 
lpmuc> the default mount table.  You can only get to your user's registry hive 
lpmuc> if Windows knows you're you! ;-)  If you want a consistent mount table
lpmuc> for password-based and public key authentication, you'll have to 
lpmuc> mount your paths as "system" (the -s flag to mount).  Of course, then
lpmuc> every user will have these mounts.
