The firewall on the mounting host is pretty much the CentOS default, which includes the "Established,related" clause in /etc/sysconfig/iptables.
To be sure, I opened up 137-139 & 445, still got the same results, so I turned off the firewall altogether. Same results.
This is driving me NUTS! I've got smb mounts of Windows 2000, Windows XP, Win98, and other Samba shares working elsewhere. What's the difference between smbclient and smbmount from the perspective of permissions?
Smbclient reads /etc/samba/smb.conf and uses the password server and domain (workgroup) if set there. I'm not sure if smbmount does the same, but I've had a few surprises when smbclient (as used by backuppc) used a domain login when I thought I was specifying a local account on the target machine.
