Re: smbfs gives Input/output errors

Hello all,

Trying to get my AD share mounted at work through smbfs, but I'm running into
some problems that I'm hoping someone might be able to elucidate.

I'm able to mount_smbfs the share (//Jaap1@HOST/Staff), and if I look at the
directory contents, I can see them. However, if I try to access my home
directory, Home/J/Jaap1, I get an Input/output error.

I can access the share through smbclient (I know that's a different mechanism,
but at least it shows that the share is accessible from the outside)

smbutil view //Jaap1@HOST results in this:
smbutil: unable to list resources: syserr = RPC struct is bad

Now, all this might of course just be a server configuration problem, but
before I start the long process of talking to our IT department, I thought I
might just see if there is something I can do on my side.

One of the directions I was thinking in is that for some reason the server
thinks I don't have permission to access my home directory (maybe it thinks
I'm a guest user or something?) and I've noticed that there are a lot of
connection options to mount_smbfs (-M and -O for example), but I haven't
really been able to figure out from the manpage or Googling what those
actually do (and if they might help). Can anyone enlighten me?

Could you let us know what OS the target SMB server is running?
