CrossOver Support - Community Forums

I am trying to install an app from a shared network drive (smb://192.168.100.100/apps1)

Steps:

1. Launch install windows software
2. pick adobe photshop cs
3. select other installer file
4. click browse
5. In the file name field insert "smb://192.168.100.100/apps1//PhotoshopCS2/setup.exe
6. Receive a message /home/rayux/smb://192.168.100.100/apps1//PhotoshopCS2/setup.exe does not exist

So my question is How do I create/mount a shared network drive within crossover ?
I read the crossover docs but there was no mention on how to install apps from a network drive.

Note: the smb path works fine under natilus.

cheers

Ok I figured it out.

This is what I did.

1. Created a folder under winxp bottle named winshare
2. execute the command line:
   sudo smbmount //192.168.100.100/d$ /home/rayux/.cxoffice/winxp/drive_c/winshare -o username=winusername,password=winpassword
