Cifs


Hi

I'm using CIFS to accesa some windows shares, and it works great.
The only problem i have with it is that it allways prompts for password
when mounting a share. I'm using the comand:
mount -t cifs //192.168.1.1/Linux /mnt/Linux

The permissions on the shares in windows allow access to everyone
without asking for password or username. Is there anyway to mount the shares
using CIFS without it pompting for password? Must be real simple, but... tanx.

P.S. I want to do this as a simple user, i can't su or edit fstab .
