I have a Windows machine called 'box' with a directory called 'users' which is shared publicly with no access username or password as 'users2'. On my Jessie system, I created the mount point successfully:
mkdir -p /mnt/users I then installed the cifs-utils package as instructed by a Website with a fairly up-to-date article on how to do all of this. In /etc/fstab, as directed by the same article, I have placed the line: //box/users2 /mnt/users cifs I am now trying to mount the Windows share like this: mount -t cifs //box/users2 /mnt/users The system responds: mount error(13): Permission denied Is there a default username and password I'm supposed to use, like maybe the Windows network password, or something else perhaps?
