Hi, I need to mount a file server that I only have credentials for and know nothing about. I have a completely vanilla setup without /etc/smb.conf, nor any Samba service running; only the samba client binaries are installed. The credentials are domain, username, password; Kerberos is not being used as confirmed by the smbclient debug output. When I connect using smbclient -A credentials.txt //corp.local/mnt it works fine. The name corp.local resolves using DNS and I can browse the datastore. When I mount using mount -vvvvv -t cifs //corp.local/mnt --verbose -overs=3,credentials=credentials.txt,sec=ntlmssp /mnt I see that I get a STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME back. If I change the credentials, I get a logon error, and if I change the mount name, I get a missing file error. So it seems that the path and the credentials are correct. If I change the version to 1, it fails in some other way. If I change the sec to ntlm, it complains about authentication. Any suggestions? This is driving me crazy :-/ Many thanks! Wout.
