When trying to access a disk share (on a VMware Win2K machine) that shows up fine with smbclient -L (version 2.2.8a on Gentoo), I get a "tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED" error. Examining the TCP stream with Ethereal (see excerpts below) revealed that the initial login went fine, with password sent and accepted. However, a second authentication exchange, apparently for connecting to the disk share, failed. I am able to access a shared printer on this same Win2K machine with no problem. Any ideas? -- Ed Suominen Registered Patent Agent Open Source Developer (Yes, both...)
