Can't mount smbfs after powerdown


I used to mount my music folder as a windows share and mount it on my Linux box across the house to listen to my music. This worked fine for about a month, then, we had a poweroutage. I got all of the computers booted up and working fine, but now, when I try to mount the share, I get
"session setup failed: ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (Access denied.)
SMB connection failed"
I can't mount the share on the windows box either, but I hadn't tried untill after the outage, so I don't for certian if it's a windows or a Linux problem. When I try to mount it on the windows box, I get something to the effect of "the logon type has not been granted for that user"

What could have happened to stop this from working? I don't understand what could be wrong.

-Thanks in advace

Check that the connections (IP's, hostnames, subnet's) are all as they should be (as they are in /etc/hosts). Also, check your smb.conf to make sure you are on the same WORKGROUP. It reads as a windows problem to me, especially after furthering it with the windows/windows error. Right click on the folder and ensure you are sharing the folder with the correct permissions.

Good Luck!

Cool

As it turns out it was a windows problem. Appearently windows systems can't keep networking going after power outages because they store something in the registry that tells the system not to allow logons of some type, which it changes at a proper shutdown. I did a system restore and everything went back to normal.

Darn windows problems
