Hello, as a new Linux user (Red Hat6.0) I am trying to mount hard drives from a local network which is managed by a windows NTServer. When I try to launch from the command line: smbclient -L servername I am prompted for a password, which I presume is the same password that I use when I login from a Windows environemt. Given the pasword I get the message: session setup failed: ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (Access denied. ) My question is wheter the server is denying entrance or I am doing something wrong, and if so, which man pages to look into. I understand this may sound stupid to you experts and I apologise. P.S. I tried to login the SMB server on a unix machine in Italy and the same command, with my local password, worked fine. This would say that the problem is in my server here in the UK. But how do I overcome this? Best regards Massimo Pinto

The username being passed is that which you are using on the Linux box. If
your user names don't match, use the -U switch and specify the NT username
with which you want to connect. Also, make sure your Linux box is using
the right domain. The -W switch may be useful. And, of course, make sure
your caps lock key isn't on. 8-) It wouldn't hurt to make sure you
have
permissions on the NT box for the share you're trying to access.
Hope that helps.
Kevin
