[linux-cifs-client] FW: UNC in linux bassackwards? hmmm

[Tory M Blue]

Thanks for the response Steven
 
I can mount this using smbfs so I know the server is listening
 
[default root]# telnet 10.60.1.20 139
Trying 10.60.1.20...
Connected to 10.60.1.20 (10.60.1.20).
Escape character is '^]'.
 
I have been trying both 1.2 and 1.02 with no luck, I'm hoping that the
mount.cifs that I'm using is the latest, from Samba 3.0.  Also note I built
Cifs and smbfs as modules and not into the kernel.
 
[root at default root]# /usr/local/samba/bin/smbclient -L //10.60.1.20
session request to 10.60.1.20 failed (Not listening on called name)
session request to 10 failed (Not listening on called name)

the workgroup line in my smb.conf, since I don't use samba, and this is only
for my Linux systems to mount to a CIFS or SMB mount, no PC ever connects to
my Linux server.

Thanks for any assistance, this has been kicking my back side :)

It does not matter much which direction the slashes go since they will end
up the right direction (\\ and \) on the wire by the time cifs.o finishes. 

For 2.4  kernels version 1.20c of the code is most recent and is important
to use (most recent mount.cifs is version 1.4) 

Two things to check since 2.4 kernel does not allow passing back the actual
return code as 2.6 does - 
1) can you ping the ip address 
2) can you get to port 139 or 445 on that server e.g. try "smbclient -L
//10.5.1.76" 

Based on your log sounds like no app on the server is listening on port 139
or 445 on that ip address (perhaps a firewall is in the way)
