>Description:
mount_smbfs not working for simple FAT32 share. The devices I am trying to mount are simple NAS machines: D-Link GSM-D600 and Vantec Nexstar LX.

FreeBSD (actually PCBSD) works fine:

pcbsd# ls /marvin
pcbsd# mount_smbfs -I 192.168.1.14 //guest@samba/andy /marvin
Password:
pcbsd# mount | grep -i marvin
//GUEST@SAMBA/ANDY on /marvin (smbfs)
pcbsd# ls /marvin
GSM-D600        backups        video

NetBSD 4.0_RC3 fails (I do not know if this ever worked on any release):

netbsd# ls /marvin
netbsd# mount_smbfs -I 192.168.1.14 //guest@samba/andy /marvin
Password:
mount_smbfs: unable to open connection
mount_smbfs: mount error for /marvin: Socket is not connected
netbsd# ls /marvin
netbsd# mount | grep -i marvin
netbsd#

>How-To-Repeat:
netbsd# mount_smbfs -I 192.168.1.14 //guest@samba/andy /marvin

This seems to only fail when done against a simple, old style win95 share. I can mount another NetBSD machine using samba just fine with mount_smbfs.
>Fix:
None.
