I make a statment like:

Code:
mount //enterprise/G /mnt/DVD -t smbfs


I get:

Code:
5111: session setup failed: ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (Access denied.)
SMB connection failed


What reasons could I be getting this, and what can I do about it? Basically, I want to mount my DVD drive from my Windows 2000 box and be able to use it in Gentoo. How?

Thanks,
Steve

On the win2k box, the user sharing the drive must have a password you login with. Use the windows login info in the mount command:

Try this:
Code:
# mount -t smbfs -o username=windowsuserid,password=xxxx //enterprise/g /mnt/DVD


cheers :D
