smbmount vs. smbclient

[kentborg at borg.org (Kent Borg)]

I am trying to mount an XP share on my Ubuntu 6.06 machine.  It fails like this: 

  # smbmount //somemachine/someshare /mnt/smb -o user=somebody,workgroup=somegroup
  Password: 
  3441: session setup failed: ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (Access denied.)
  SMB connection failed
  root at bottom:~#

Two odd things.  I can use a similar command to mount Samba shares (so
I sort of know how to operate smbmount), and I can access the share
using the GUI (I think it uses smbclient, but anyway, my computer can
access the share).

Looking at Google I see people with similar problems, but no solution.

Ideas?


Thanks,
