Greetings, I'm running a multi boot (2)Lnx/Win2k box .
Till recently I've been accessing some Win share drives
with Samba by using fstab entries like:
"//DaWinSvr/xFolder /mnt/MyLocalDir/xFolder smbfs username=myUser,password=myPasswd,workgroup=XYZ 1 1"

All's been working fine till... (?) On both
my Linux installations (I have FC3/Wbx), the mounts now fail with a
"SMB connection failed.... ERRHRD - ERRgeneral (General failure)"
or similar message.

I assumed my password (on Win2k) had expired, etc. I've
reset it on my Windows user side, but still no luck with these
mounts back on Linux. I seem to have no problem accessing
these same share folders from Win2k as a user.

Note, I can use my Nautilus browser... which shows me the
top level Win share dirs. by using "smb://DaWinSvr". If I double
click a folder, I'm prompted with a user/domain/passwd
dialog that seems to let me in another dir. level. But I
have no read access in there. Not sure why.

Also, "smbclient -L DaWinSvr -N" lists (anonymous) all the share
names, type, etc fine. But not sure why I can mount these
drives at linux bootup anymore. Any suggestions on
what to look for are appreciated.

Sorry if this is not the right place to post this.

It was a domain (or workgroup) name change that was causing
Samba mounts to fail. I was unaware. The mounts are fine now.
