Forgot to tell you to use sudo of you aren't using the root account. So append sudo in front of that as you have in your other command. One more thing--the "lfs" option enables files greater than 2GB. smbclient chokes on them if you don't (at least in my experience).

Hello,

I am trying to use Samba to let me mount windows network drives on an
Ubuntu Dapper Server installation that I am using as a desktop.

Using:

testparm

my smb.conf seems to be ok.

Using

smbclient -L GM.local -U username -p

Gives me a full listing of all network drives, which again seems to be
good.  So now I try this:


sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=username \//GM.local/DC4 /mnt/win_share/

Password:
25031: tree connect failed: ERRDOS - ERRnosuchshare (You specified an
invalid share name)
SMB connection failed

Then i tried the same command again:

sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=username \//GM.local/DC4 /mnt/win_share/
cli_negprot: SMB signing is mandatory and we have disabled it.
25115: protocol negotiation failed
SMB connection failed

I seem to get different error messages for no apparent reason.  If
anyone can suggest a way for me to mount these network drives, please
help.

BTW - I can connect to the network folders using CIFS on my Mac, so I
know that I have the correct settings (although I cant find the
printers from my Mac)


Thanks in advance

Nick
