I know 5.1 isn't considered part of -stable, but it doesn't really seem
like -current either, so I'm asking here. If this is the wrong place please
let me know where I should be.
At work I have a 5.1-R box that I'm trying to use to mount shares from a Sun
box running samba 2.2.0 as well as some Win2K boxes. Both the sun and win2k
machines authenticate to the company's domain server. Using smbclient I can
see the shares without any problem, but I can't get mount_smbfs to work. No
matter what I try I get authentication errors. One of the things I've
noticed is that it can't find any of the computers using their netbios
names, only ip addresses work. I can't seem to get mount_smbfs to use any of
the options in ~/.nsmbrc either. Are there any known problems with the
mount_smbfs in 5.1? help?
All of the win2k boxes can see shares on the FBSD box as well as the Sun box. I
don't have admin access to the Sun box and I only have admin on one win2k
box.
Using smbclient looks like:
8:27 bfoz@~#smbclient \\\\129.197.36.34\\net-14 -U 'acct01\bfosdick'
added interface ip=129.197.26.143 bcast=129.197.26.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
Password: <my password>
Domain=[SVL] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.0]
smb: \> quit
but with mount_smbfs I get:
8:29 bfoz@~#mount_smbfs -I 129.197.36.34 //bfosdick@jupiter_sp/net-14 /mnt
Password: <same password as above>
mount_smbfs: unable to open connection: syserr = Authentication error
If I try mount_smbfs w/o -I 129.197.36.34 I get:
8:34 bfoz@~#mount_smbfs //bfosdick@jupiter_sp/net-14 /mnt
mount_smbfs: can't get server address: syserr = Operation timed out
However, mount_smbfs can see the Samba 2.2.8a server running on the same FBSD
box:
8:47 bfoz@~#mount_smbfs -I 129.197.26.143 //bfoz@localhost/bfoz /mnt
Password: <not the same password>
8:52 bfoz@~#ls /mnt
/mnt:
<snip ls output, company proprietary, blah blah blah>
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
