* the client sends a Tree Connect AndX Request specifying the correct share path but only '00' as the password * the server responds with STATUS_WRONG_PASSWORD. The fact that, with cifs, the password is not being sent at the same time as the share specification would seem to suggest that

I think this is because the mount is trying to do user-level authentication (since it correctly sends my share-level password, but also reports to the server that the user is 'root'). There is no documentation on the mount.cifs man page to force share-level authentication. User-level and
