How can I mount a samba share ?

[mwolfaardt]

Hi have a NAS with a share that I would like to be able to mount using DSC?

@mwolfaardt, I'm not familiar with Samba, but if it can be an SMB share, you can use: https://github.com/dsccommunity/ComputerManagementDsc/tree/main/source/Examples/Resources/SmbShare perhaps.

Thank you, I'll have a look. Do you know in my yalm file I set to import the module?

I had a look, and the script provided is to create a share, I need to mount a remote share.

Got it working with :
``
properties:
resources:
- resource: PSDscResources/Script
id: MapSmbShare
directives:
description: "Map remote SMB share to drive Z:"
securityContext: elevated
settings:
GetScript: |
return @{ Result = (Get-SmbMapping -RemotePath '\blue\Documents' -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue) }
SetScript: |
# Update username and password as needed
New-SmbMapping -RemotePath '\blue\Documents' -LocalPath 'Z:' -Persistent $true
TestScript: |
$mapping = Get-SmbMapping -RemotePath '\blue\Documents' -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
return $mapping -ne $null

configurationVersion: 0.2.0
``
