[Samba] connecting to windows server 2003 with samba 3.0.9

[Dan McNulty]

I have a Windows server 2003 Domain controller with a share called
DC02Data.

 

I can connect to this share successfully from several RedHat boxes,
running samba 2.2.7.

 

However, on several other RedHat machines, running samba 3.0.9 I cannot
connect properly. In fact, I actually seem able to establish a mount
successfully, but cannot then view the files, as shown below:

 

[root at ixapp01 mnt]# mount /mnt/hhfs05-dc02data

 

[root at ixapp01 mnt]# ls -l

ls: hhfs05-dc02data: Permission denied

total 84

drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         4096 Jul 29  2004 cdrom

 

The /etc/fstab file is configured as follows:

 

\\machine.example.com\DC02Data  /mnt/hhfs05-dc02data  smbfs
rw,username=username,password=password,workgroup=production,uid=nobody,g
id=gid,fmask=775 0 0

 

However, from one of the Samba 3.0.9 machines I can connect to another
windows server 2003 machine, which ISN'T a domain controller, but is
part of the same domain, using identical credentials...???

 

Any pointers would be much appreciated.

 

/Dan.
