Linux --> NT mount problem

Tue Jan 30 12:51:04 GMT 2001

A colleague of mine found the answer to my post through trial and error.  I
thought I had tried the same.

mount -t smbfs -o username=username/domain //server/share /mnt/point

NOTE: username/domain is backwards from the way you do it on nt.

For those who care...
