From: Adam Williams on 24 Apr 2008 11:00 are you using smbpasswd, tdbsam, or ldapsam for authentication? in linux can you do mount -t cifs "//192.168.248.195/A_Valid_Share" /mnt -o username=user,password=passwd what sort of errors are you getting in /var/log/samba/log.smbd gforgcc wrote: > Hi friends, > i have a weird problem, i am running a Fedora Linux OS on Vmware installed > from Windows XP > i have configured samba inside VMware linux (BRIDGED NETWORKING), but when i > tried to access the same from the windows it is telling "cannot be > accessible", i have tried almost all the ways... > My Windows IP is say 192.168.248.29 and i have taken a free IP from system > admin for my VMware linux running on windows say its IP is 192.168.248.195 > and from windows i am trying to access like this > Go to Start menu -> run and type \\192.168.248.195, now it will show the > list of the samba folders but when i double click on the folder it prompts > for username and passwd and when i enter the samba username and passwd it > will popup a message "Cannot be accessed u might now have permissions to > access this" !! :( > but i have given all the permissions to that folder chmod 777 /home/user -R > and also while configuring samba i have given writable and browsable > permissions , i am using samba version 3.0.21b-2, and i tried stopping > iptables also but even that yielded same result > Please help me to solve this problem thanks.. :) > -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

[root(a)localhost]# mount -t cifs "//192.168.248.195//home/abc" /mnt -o username=abc, password=abc Usage: mount -V : print version mount -h : print this help mount : list mounted filesystems mount -l : idem, including volume labels So far the informational part. Next the mounting. The command is `mount [-t fstype] something somewhere'. Details found in /etc/fstab may be omitted. mount -a [-t|-O] ... : mount all stuff from /etc/fstab mount device : mount device at the known place mount directory : mount known device here mount -t type dev dir : ordinary mount command Note that one does not really mount a device, one mounts a filesystem (of the given type) found on the device. One can also mount an already visible directory tree elsewhere: mount --bind olddir newdir or move a subtree: mount --move olddir newdir A device can be given by name, say /dev/hda1 or /dev/cdrom, or by label, using -L label or by uuid, using -U uuid . Other options: [-nfFrsvw] [-o options] [-p passwdfd]. For many more details, say man 8 mount . and in the file /var/log/samba/smbd.log... the output is like this...
