samba - Feb 2003 - Help in connecting to a smbfs (nt4 server) directory.

Hi all

I need some help in connecting to a nt4 server shared directory from a RH8
using samba 2.27.

i've tried using the following,

mount -t smbfs //data-bu/hands-bu  /mnt/hands-bu

I would like to connect to 'hands-bu' directory on server
'data-bu' to back
up all the home directories. there is no pwd required.

is there something missing????

any help would be appriecated.

thx
Bill

What exactly happens when you run the mount command?  Does it just ask 
for a password?  Need just a little more info about what actually 
happens.  ;)
