i have been trying to mount a buffalo NAS to my RHEL5 and keep getting the mount error 13 = permission denied. I have all over the web and this forum and nothing seems to work. Here is an example of my command

mount -t cifs //Severname/Sharename -o username=Domain/Username,password=xxxxxxx /mnt/windows

I have tried using file system and have no luck.

I have created a group in Active Directory and that group is added to the NAS Share. I also added that same group to a Windows Share and could map the windows share with no problems.

I feel like its something with the NAS share but not sure.

Is there anything special i need to do to the NAS to let me mount the share in RHEL?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Create just a local share on the NAS device with a local account, for testing skip all the Active Directory accounts/ groups.

Thanks. That worked. I created a local account on the NAS share and mapped it with no issues on RHEL.

Ok, it worked on my first RHEL server but when i tried on my second RHEL sever, i receive "mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //servername/sharename, missing codepage or other error. in some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so"

I typed dmesg | tail and here are the last entries

mtrr: type mismatch for e8000000,40000000 old: uncachable new: write-combining
CIFS VFS: cifs mount failed w/return code = 22

Not sure why it works on one of my RHEL and not the other. They are setup pretty much the same as one is PROD and one is TEST

Any other advice would be greatly appreciated.

Check that you have CIFS installed on the other RHEL Server. It sounds like it's missing the CIFS filesystem.

Compare on both servers with a :
