samba Tree connect failed: ERRSRV - ERRbadpw (2nd try)

[Alain Rassel]

Hi,

we had exactly the same problem. It seems the binary version of samba
that comes with SuSE 6.0 has been compiled on the wrong kernel. Just
recompile it from the sources on the production kernel without smbmount
(configure --without-smbmount), and you should be ok.

cheers
