Cannot connect using smbclient

[Eduardo Diaz Uriarte]

I am really astonished...

That was it: I used 
 smbclient \\\\OBELIX\\HD_OBELIX -U eduardo 
and it worked.

And smbmount (that I thought was not working) has already worked with this:
mount -t smbfs //obelix/HD_OBELIX /mnt -o username=eduardo

So thanks to all of you that helped me during this days with this stupid thing.
