mount via cifs fails

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

 



Hello,

I seem to be unable to mount a shared windows partition across samba 
within FC5. 

# mount -t cifs //<server-IP>/NimmiLabBackup/ /mnt/labbackup/ -o 
user=karthikv
Password: 
retrying with upper case share name
mount error 6 = No such device or address
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)

Using the same mount command with the --verbose option changes 
NimmiLabBackup -> NIMMILABBACKUP and fails with the same error. 

I am able to log into the windows machine via smbclient, but an ls within 
the smbclient gives: 
smb: \> ls
NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED listing \*

Searching on google gives many users complaining about the same thing, but
no clear solution. This behavior occurs on a 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5smp kernel
running fedora core 5 on an intel dual-core CPU. The same samba mount from
a neighbor's machine running Ubuntu with kernel 2.6.15 works fine.

How can I try fixing this? 


Thanks,

-K
