I can't help with unloads because I can't get them loaded in the first place. It's like this.
client server result w98 samba ok w98 nt4 ok smbmount w98 ok smbmount samba ok smbmount nt4 fail In other words, I can smbmount everything except an nt4 share. If I can do it from w98 it cannot be a password or encryption problem, can it? Any ideas please? This is vital as we plan on using Debian workstations in the classroom and users must be able to mount their home directories.
