My understanding is that you must already have a TGT in order to use them with krb5 auth. In any case, the smbclient manpage doesn't list DOMAIN/user as valid syntax for the -U option. I think you're expected to use -W to supply a domain name. -- Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxx> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-cifs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
