Unable to mount SMB drive

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I have a Windows Server 2003 system I'm trying to back up to a Linux host. 

when I access the share with smbclient, I can "see" the files (`ls` returns a 
list of files, etc) 

smbclient -U shareuser //server/sharename password 

But, when I try to actually mount the drive, I get "permission denied" errors 
trying to access the drive. (EG: using `df`) Running the following command 
takes about 10 seconds: 

smbmount //server/sharename /mnt/servername -o \
credentials=/path/to/credentials,ro 

I've also tried an alternate format: 

mount -t smbfs -o username=USERNAME //server/sharename /mnt/servername 

Same results both ways. I found a CentOS forum where somebody had problems 
with the RPM package, but retrograding to the package(s) he recommends didn't 
change anything.

I'm running the latest samba-client & samba-common on CentOS 4.2. SELinux is 
in warn mode. Here's the /var/log/messages when I mount: 

Feb  2 19:42:16 sol kernel: SELinux: initialized (dev smbfs, type smbfs), uses 
genfs_contexts
Feb  2 19:42:16 sol kernel: smb_retry: no connection process
Feb  2 19:42:46 sol kernel: smb_add_request: request [c554bee0, mid=0] timed 
out!
Feb  2 19:42:46 sol kernel: smb_delete_inode: could not close inode 2
Feb  2 19:42:46 sol kernel: SELinux: initialized (dev smbfs, type smbfs), uses

Feb  2 19:42:46 sol mount.smbfs[21755]:   mount.smbfs: entering daemon mode 
for service \\heliodorite.sunset.net\iissites, pid=21755

Running with debug=8 didn't provide much that was helpful. Any ideas where to 
go from here?
