Smbmount Works But Mount Doesn't With Samba Shares
« on: May 07, 2006, 05:19:13 pm »
Hi,

I am running cacko 1.23 and have installed smbclient, smbmounter and smbpasswd.  I can mount windows shares using smbmount with no problem.  However, when auto mounting in fstab or using the mount command directly, mounting always fails.  I get the message, invalid argument.  When I type dmesg I find that it says, "smbfs: mount_data version 1919251317 is not supported"  followed by "smbfs: mount_data version 0 is not supported".

This command always fails: sudo mount -t smbfs //computer_name/share_name /mnt/share_name

This command always works: sudo smbmount //computer_name/share_name /mnt/share_name  

I would really like to auto mount some shares but with mount not working I can't.  Any ideas?  Thanks

Sulat
