[Samba] SMBMOUNT to C$ Share on Windows XP. HELP!

[Malcolm Jack]

Hey all! Ok, here's the deal.  It's a little off topic as it centers more around mount and XP issues then actual Samba, but they all seem to tie together, sooo . . .   I have a RH 6.2 Box running a Samba (2.0.10) server  with no problems.  I have a mixed network of Windows NT4, Win 98/95 Boxes, and Windows 2000 WS and Server.  Everything was talking just fine.    Not only could the M$ boxes see the Samba server, I could go the other way using mount -t smbfs.    I use the format '  mount -t smbfs -o username=foo,password=bar //server/share /mnt '   It has worked just fine provided 2 things; 1>     The share existed (This includes the NT/200 Administrative Shares (C$ D$)     2>     I used a valid username/password on the box I was connecting TO (i.e. Local account on the NT box)   Everything has been fine with NT, and 2000.    Problem: I just upgraded a box to XP-Pro.  Everything is fine going from XP to SAMBA, no problems at all. But SAMBA to XP is no longer working.   Example below   [root@hoc samba]# mount -t smbfs -o username=administrator,password=******** //bytelair/C$ /mnt/net1 tree connect failed: ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess SMB connection failed [root@hoc samba]#   It seems to me to be an access problem, that XP dosen't like the authentication token given, but Windows 2000 likes it fine.     Any ideas?   TIA!   Malcolm
