I get the following error when I try to mount a directory from my NAS
using cifs:

:~ # mount -t cifs \\\\nas\\home /mnt/cifs -o
user=nas\administrator,password=password,soft,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,nouser_xattr

I get the following output in /var/log/messages:

Oct 24 18:53:08 serv kernel:  CIFS VFS: Send error in SessSetup = -5
Oct 24 18:53:08 serv kernel:  CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -5

I'm fairly sure this used to work.  I'm using:

Kernel: Linux serv 2.6.5-7.244-smp #1 SMP Mon Dec 12 18:32:25 UTC 2005
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Distro:  SUSE SLES 9.3
cifs:  cifs-1.34a-SLES9-SP2

Thank you in advance.
