[Samba] mount_smbfs: can't get handle to requester (no /dev/nsmb* device)
Hi all ! I have a little problem here mounting or browsing samba shares. I have a FreeBSD 4.6.2 running samba, and a share on that called public. when I try to mount that share it asks for password, and then gives an error: ex. libra# mount_smbfs //maxi@samba/public /mnt Password: mount_smbfs: can't get handle to requester (no /dev/nsmb* device) libra# I can list the shares with smbclient, no errors at all. I can not login to the samba like this: libra# smbutil login //maxi@samba Password: smbutil: can't get handle to requester (no /dev/nsmb* device) smbutil: can't get handle to requester (no /dev/nsmb* device) smbutil: could not login to server SAMBA: syserr = Invalid argument libra# I have checked /dev and there is one entry for nsmb0: libra# ll /dev/nsmb* crw------- 1 root wheel 144, 0 Oct 14 15:23 /dev/nsmb0 libra# I don't think the problem is server related because it works on another Windows workstation on the same LAN. Any ideas on what this might be? Need more info? Just ask, I'll give all info I can... Regards: Markku / Maxi
