passwd auth problem

[Stephen L Arnold]

When the world was young, Richard Stevens <Richard.Stevens at gmx.net> 
carved some runes like this:  

> I can get all the shares with smbclient -L.  When I try to mount
> a drive with smbmount, I allways get the following error:
>
> session setup failed: ERRSRV - ERRbadpw (Bad password - name/password pair
> in a Tree Connect or Session Setup are invalid.)    
[snip]
> [tmp]
>   public=yes
>   path=/tmp
>   valid users = root   

Are you logging into the client as "root"?  Or do you have your 
client username mapped to root in smbusers?  Or are you passing 
both the username and password via the smbmount commandline?

What security setting are you using (ie, user, share, or what?)
