Hi Pai, Thanks for your valuable information. Its working now. Here we can choose different domain as well. e.g
#smbmount //my-nt-machine/share /mnt -o username='mydomain\administrator',debug='10' So that i can choose a single username & pass to take the backup from different Windoz NT m/cs. Here *debug* parmameter has helped me at lot in identifying the problem.
