Configure SSL
These steps will create a certificate request that can will either be a self signed certificate or use the certificate request and have it signed be another Certification Authority (CA). Notes will be mentioned for creating a certificate request that will be singed by an Entrust CA.

Configure Backups
It is assumed that a share has been created and a user account has been provided that will allow read/write access to the share. The share that will be used is called backups, and the user name/password is Logicaldoc/password1234!. An IP or FQDN can be used to connect to the share. At this point in time I have not been able to get the fstab function to correctly work as documented. My workaround is to skip 10.2.1 and use the following line in the fstab //10.60.50.10/backups /mnt/mountpoint cifs user=myuser,password=mypassword,auto 0 0. I have been successful with that edit to the fstab, and will hopefully figure out what is wrong!
