[PLUG] Network shares not mounting automatically after NIC change

[Frank via plug <plug@lists.phillylinux.org>]

On a Linux Mint workstation, I recently switched from using wi-fi to 
wired Ethernet.  When I was using wi-fi, all of my network shares 
auto-mounted when the computer started up.  Since I've switched to wired 
Ethernet, none of the drives are shared when the computer starts.  I 
have to type "sudo mount -a" every time after this computer starts.  I 
suspect it's because the NIC on the motherboard is taking longer to 
start up and the wi-fi chip did, and it's a timing issue.  All of the 
lines in /etc/fstab look like this:

"//192.168.200.200/Music /mnt/Music cifs 
username=[username],password=[password],file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,auto 
0 0"

Is there a simple way to fix this?


Thanks, Frank
