smb - ERRDOS - ERRnosuchshare
 

guys,

i cant connect to samba server (debian) to mount the share local files in my computer (suse)..i use the follow command:


mount -t smbfs //192.168.66.244/LINUX.4/sistemas/ /windows/winshare

but i get this error message:

2001: tree connect failed: ERRDOS - ERRnosuchshare (You specified an invalid share name)
SMB connection failed


anyone have idea to find a solution?

you didn't put //windows/share

try using loopback too

mount -t smbfs -o username=user.password=pass //windows/share /mnt/folder

yeap, i create the windows/winshare folder before ...

never mind. My mistake.
try adding the workgroup.

mount -t smbfs -o workgroup=workgroup //fjall/test /data/test

This command is designed to be run from within /bin/mount by giving
the option '-t smbfs'. For example:
mount -t smbfs -o username=tridge,password=foobar //fjall/test /data/test

Hi,
I think you can´t mount share subdirectories directly.
Try something like this:

mount -t smbfs //192.168.66.244/LINUX.4 /windows/winshare

It should work. Be sure that there is no slash on the end of the mounted share! I made this mistake and it made me almost crazy to fix it ;)
