Re: Writes to Samba mount, sort-of

From within a terminal, I run zsh. I have no trouble, via the command line,
creating files on a Samba mount, or transferring files to the Samba mount.

When I try and do the same thing from within a cron job, that starts a zsh
script, I cannot create or copy files to a Samba mount.

Can anyone think of a reason why this would be so?


Yes and we even have an FAQ about it. See:
