Script: Connect and Debug to Samba NAS

[sea]

Heyas

As some might have recently, i've had some issues to connect to my NAS.
Figured i made mistakes, but have learned a bit on the road, which the Fedora Community shall benefit from.
At least i hope its helpful

Features:
* Create a credentials file
* Connect to a single share on NAS, using cli.
* Mount all directory to local environment
* Easier debugging, collect data that helps you debugging.
* Change the default variables in the script, so you can just hit enter for your hardcoded default values -> easier re-usage.


For best results, and previous to first execution of the script:

1. mkdir $HOME/bin
2. chmod +x sea-samba.sh
3. mv sea-samba.sh /$HOME/bin
4. su
5. yum install cifs-utils samba-client
6. sea-samba

Once the credentials are created, its quiete easy to use:
Mounting all shares from NAS to local might look similar to this, whilst using sea-samba.sh mn

		sea's Samba script tool (0.5)
Moutning 192.168.10.110 to /nas
Mounting:	//192.168.10.110/priv    to /nas/priv   	 done   
Mounting:	//192.168.10.110/pub     to /nas/pub    	 done   
Mounting:	//192.168.10.110/TimeMac to /nas/TimeMachine     done   
Mounting:	//192.168.10.110/Picture to /nas/Pictures        done   
Mounting:	//192.168.10.110/Music   to /nas/Music  	 done   
Mounting:	//192.168.10.110/Movies  to /nas/Movies 	 done   
Mounting:	//192.168.10.110/Linux   to /nas/Linux  	 done   
Mounting:	//192.168.10.110/Backups to /nas/Backups         done

Where the 'main' menu looks like:

Domain=[OGOG] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.5.6]
Domain=[OGOG] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.5.6]
		sea's Samba script tool (0.5)
1) Exit
2) Single connection to 1 share on "ocean"
3) Mount all shares on "ocean" to "/nas"
4) Debug 
5) Edit: /etc/samba/smb.cred
6) Edit: /etc/samba/smb.conf
7) Edit: /etc/samba/nas.conf

Have to cut out the "help-command"-part as its too large...

for arg in $@
do 	if [ "h" = "$arg" ] || [ "-h" = "$arg" ] || [ "--h" = "$arg" ] || [ "--help" = "$arg" ]  || [ "-help" = "$arg" ]
then
cat << EOF
    There are no arguments required.
    Simply edit the variables in the script and/or
    provide the information to create the configuration
    and credential files.
    
    These files will not only ease the use of this script,
    but are also more secure (credential) than using those
    values as plain text (hard coded) in your scripts.
    
    If you need root access, it is suggested to use a term like:
      *)       su -c /path/to/sea-samba
      *)       su -c sea-samba
    
    To perform action right from the command line use these arguments:
      *)	mn	= 	Mount Nas ; Connects to your NAS,
      				if not root a password is required
      *)	co	= 	Connect to Share
      				Reads the shares on the NAS and ask you to
      				which you want to connect.
    
    If you have any ideas to improve this script, 
    find bugs or a solution for them, feel free to send me an
    email to: < erat.simon AT gmail.com > ... with the subject "samba".
