Re: Still Can't Mount Windows Share

Mea culpa. I didn't read far enough down the page. After trying `vers=2.1', now I get error 13, permission denied. Getting closer. Now it's probably a username or password problem, but the Windows account has no password. I suppose if I must put one on, in order to make this work, I will, but

Let me rephrase/clarify that. There are lots of things on which screenreaders can be blamed, but this one wasn't one of them. On Sat, 09 Jan 2016 20:49:59 -0500, you wrote: >On Sat, 9 Jan 2016 22:46:20 +, Lisi wrote: > >>On Saturday 09 January 2016 22:00:46 Steve Matzura wrote: >>> Mea
