TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
Found the solution for the problem widely described below, after the
<><>.... symbols.
Here you are the solution:
I created under /root the following
°°°°°°° .nsmbrc file
[default]
workgroup=BOH_SS
# The 'FSERVER' is an NT server.
[SRVS1]
#charsets=koi8-r:cp866
addr=srvs1.boh_ss
[SRVS1:A00BCDD]
# use persistent password cache for user 'A00BCD'
password=giulietta
I didn't change a line in my
°°°°°°°smb.conf file
[global]
workgroup = BOH_SS
# server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field
server string = VicBSD
load printers = no
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
log level = 1
max log size = 50
security = user
nt acl support = no
encrypt passwords = yes
smb passwd file = /usr/local/private/smbpasswd
domain master = no
# wins support = yes
wins server = 10.155.1.122 10.155.1.211
#============================ Share Definitions
==============================
[homes]
# comment = Home Directories
# browseable = no
# writable = yes
read only = No
****************
Thanks to the .nsmbrc file I was able to connect to the windows share
with the following command line (adding the option -N to force samba
read the password from .nsmbrc):
mount_smbfs -N //a00bcd at srvs1/Data /mnt/smb
in so doing samba desn't ask for the password and connects to the share
smoothlhy!
What puzzles me (any explanation?) is that:
1) Even though I declare my username a00bcd in the .nsmbrc file I have
to repeat it in the mount_smbsf line otherwise, issuing e.g
mount_smbfs -N //srvs1/Data /mnt/smb
it doesn't mount the share complaining about something wrong with the
authorization;
2) I still don't understand why - without the -N option I'm correctly
asked for a password but samba continues to be unable to connect the
share.
Anyway my occasional solution works fine!
Thanks to ALL for the many suggestions
