CIFS error !

[Ivan Azuara]

Hi !

I have a little problem when i try to mount a shared directory from a windows server trought samba client.

The message is:

Connecting Server: UNIX: Broken pipe

The procedure is:

# mount -F cifs -o username=spooladm,password=Support01 WebSeguros02:/sii-interfaces /interfaces_win

The strange is that i have an other shared directories from others windows server on my hpux box without problems.

Some idea ?

Thank's in advance !!

It might be a case that "netbios" is disabled in the Windows server. Check the netbios status under the tcp/ip properties of the network interface. It should be enabled.

Shalom,

What does the samba log and netbios log say?

Shalom!

"What does the samba log and netbios log say?"

CIFS Client -- the software Messr. Ivan is using is NOT Samba... This is a common misconception about the CIFS Client software -- IT is not Samba...

The logs one should look at are in /var/opt/cifsclient/debug.

Ivan,

Set your cifsclient.cfg (NOT smb.conf) so it has more debugging onit and check the CIFS Client logs...
