John, I tried it.
smbpasswd -a <username>
then tried mounting it again, and (unfortunately) got the same "permissions
denied" error when I ran smbmount and then checked it with df.
I'm not running a samba server, I'm accessing a share from a Win2003 system,
and my understanding of smbpasswd is that it would be used for setting
passwords for a local share as accessed by other client systems. Am I missing
something?
I used the same smbmount invocations previously with a Windows 2000 server,
but it got upgraded to Windows 2003, and things broke.
The part that has me really scratching my head is that, while I persistently
get this permission denied error when I try to smbmount the partition, I can
access it fine with smbclient, not only listing files, but saving them to the
local system!
