    (v5.0.1)Start samba server: Export all drives does not work

    Hi, when I start samba server, and choose YES when a dialog ask me "Export all drives so that....", but it does not export all drives.

    I check the /etc/samba/smb.conf file, no additional configs is appended.

    but v4.0.2 works fine.

    Okay, I found what cause this problem:

    Open /usr/sbin/sambastart, goto line 86, column 45, I found the script try to find mount point contains /mnt from /etc/fstab, but, it seems both Fedora Core 5 and Knoppix 5 move the mount point to /media instead of /mnt, so of course, the script can't find any drives/mount points...

    Code:
    #ask user and export hardisks if he decides to do so
    #can be done with append to smb.conf as its always a fresh copy
    #(made above)
    if $FORCEEXPORT || $DIALOG --title "$TITLE" --defaultno --yesno "$MESSAGE_EXPORTS" 0 0 ; then
    for HD in $(cut -d " " -f 2 /etc/fstab|grep /mnt) ; do # change /mnt to /media
    NAME=$(basename $HD)
    cat >>$SMBCONF <<EOF
    [$NAME]
            comment = $HD
            browseable = yes
            path = $HD
            writeable = yes
            preexec = /bin/mount $HD
            postexec = /bin/umount $HD
    EOF
    done
    fi
