I have two desktop computers connected by a router on a home network. Samba is working beautifully and I can browse the network shares with dolphin. The names resolve to the netbios names and when I access the share, I am prompted for a username and password. I am trying to mount the share with this command.
Code:
adam@adam-Dell16:/mnt$ sudo mount -t cifs \\\\LINUX-HIHN\\adam /mnt/sink -o username=adam
Password:
mount error(115): Operation now in progress
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)
adam@adam-Dell16:/mnt$
This is what I get with smbclient. Seems to work fine.
Code:
adam@adam-Dell16:~$ smbclient -NL LINUX-HIHN

What is wrong?
I read in another post that the user resolved a mount problem by changing the password on the samba server to something different from the one on the samba client. I happen to use the same username and password on both computers. Could that be the problem?
