If you do a `smbmount` (no args) it blah blahs about mounting smbfs stuffs. At the bottom is the snippet that someone posted earlier, mount -t smbfs -o username=tridge,password=foobar //fjall/test /data/test Right now, I have the e: drive of the windows box to my left mounted by mount -t smbfs //crackbox/e /mnt/smb/crackbox/ If it were password protected by windows share, I'd do the same thing, let it try to mount it, and then smbmount *asks* me for the password to access the directory. Obviously, I had to create the /mnt/smb/crackbox/ dir, but that's not something out of the ordinary. Do you get any sort of errors or anything? When I've had problems in the past, I know errors were reported back (I can't remember what they were, but I know they were there). -nicole
