Hi All, I have an issue which I see in google that many have with no apparent answers. I can use smbclient to browse out windows 2003 and windows 2000 servers. When I do a mount -t smbfs -o username=administrator,password=------- //whadvapp/imports /mnt/imports It fails with the following: Unknown parameter encountered: "force create mask" Ignoring unknown parameter "force create mask" Unknown parameter encountered: "force directory mask" Ignoring unknown parameter "force directory mask" 24742: session setup failed: ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (Access denied.) SMB connection failed I assume that the top 4 lines about ignoring unknown parameters doesn't matter because I can mount an windows XP box fine. Samba is part of our active directory and people are using it from their windows clients. Samba version: samba-common-3.0.9-1.3E.5 samba-3.0.9-1.3E.5 samba-client-3.0.9-1.3E.5 Running on RHEL3. Any ideas? Matthew
