samba config - aix server mounting windows file shares 1

[antonioelderprado]

Hi,

I am getting nuts here, I have installed (by compiling ) a smb on aix 5.1.
I need to get a share on a windows and be able to mount on the aix. I have changed the windows domain to the domain of smb (smbdomain). I was able to on windows mount a exported smb share, but what I need (mount on aix the windows share) I am not getting this done.
this is my smb.conf
# cat smb.conf
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 10.10.40.133 (10.10.40.133)
# Date: 2005/12/20 03:50:34

[global]
workgroup = SMBDOMAIN
netbios aliases = aixda08
client signing = Yes
server signing = Yes
paranoid server security = No
dns proxy = No
wins server = 10.10.40.7
wins support = Yes
ldap ssl = no
winbind use default domain = Yes
username = antonio root
valid users = root, antonio, administrator
admin users = root, antonio, administrator
acl check permissions = No
acl map full control = No

[apps]
comment = All apps on aixqa08
path = /apps
read only = No


[win-ap]
path = 10.10.40.126:/c/DownloadDirector

[home]
path = /home/antonio

[from-win]
comment = shares from windows
path = 10.10.40.126:/c/DownloadDirector #

questions:
is it possible for me to just mount the share via mount command, I did try but keeps on hanging.
is it possible for me by putting the shares of windows on smb.conf and then mounting on the unix machine.
BTW, the server is where I want to mount the windows share.

thank you for any help.

Take a look at these

It may also be worth getting a copy of swat (A GUI front end to configure samba)

Download Microsoft Services for Unix (SFU) from Microsoft and nfs mount the AIX directory and share it on the Windows level.

mount -t smbfs //192.168.xx.xxx/namedshare /foldermountpoint

mount -t smbfs -o username=yourip , password=nul //192.168.xx.xxx/namedshare /foldermountpoint
(you must rwrite same with 'usr,pass')
Security
If you share folder AIX for Bill O/S add
