mount -t smbfs //192.168.1.101/C$ /mnt/sales fails

[heintze]

Yesterday this was working:

mount -t smbfs //192.168.1.101/C$ /mnt/sales -o username:siegfried

I have not rebooted 192.168.1.101 which is running windows. I have rebooted fedora core 4.

Today I get

3796: tree connect failed: ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (Access denied.)
SMB connection failed

I have not changed anything. What could be the problem?

Thanks,
Siegfried

mount -t smbfs //192.168.1.101/C$ /mnt/sales -o username:siegfried

it should be username[red]=[/red]siegfried

another things, don't you need the domain/workgroup name? if so, it should be

mount -t smbfs //192.168.1.101/C$ /mnt/sales -o username="domain\siegfried"

You may consider using cifs if possible. It's newer and supposed to be better for windows shares (or so I read.) When I used it to connect to windows machines it seems to be a little faster than smbfs, but you'll need cifs support through a module or built into the kernel.

mount -t cifs //192.168.1.101/C$ /mnt/sales -o username="domain\siegfried"
