Basic SAMBA

Ya I used -U and - P, and still the same thing.  This machine doesn't sit
in a DOMAIN, but is instead in it's own WORKGROUP.  May this be part of the
problem?  Just to let you know I can SAMBA between two Linux boxes on my
local LAN that is using 10.0.0.0, so I am fairly sure my overall SAMBA is
setup correctly.  The ones I am having problems with are on dial up to my
work.

My first guess would be authentication.  You may have mounted the share but
don't have permissions to read/write/execute etc.  Make sure the supplied
password is correct, and you may check out the -U switch.  Oh, and you may
also make sure the domain is correct--that switch is -D or -W or something
if memory serves.
