Run terminal sudo command at startup [duplicate]
I need to run the following command at startup or upon login to make my samba share accessible to my file system. How can I make this command run when I start my computer?
sudo smbnetfs ~/Shared -o allow_other
Note that this command requires sudo
and must be run from a terminal. Putting it in startup applications does not work.
Solution 1:
Create a file: /etc/rc.local
File contents:
#!/bin/sh -e
smbnetfs /home/user/Shared -o allow_other
exit 0
Save the file and make it executable with this command:
sudo chmod +x /etc/rc.local
The commands in the file before exit 0
will be run as root at startup.
