Let's make this more explicit: mount.cifs //server/share /home/amitf/mount_point -o 'username=amitf%mypassword' Or even slightly more verbose: mount.cifs //server/share /home/amitf/mount_point --verbose -o 'username=amitf%mypassword' BTW: the man page mentioned in that message refers to the option 'username' as deprecated, IIRC. -- Tzafrir Cohen | tzaf...@jabber.org | VIM is http://tzafrir.org.il | | a Mutt's tzaf...@cohens.org.il | | best ICQ# 16849754 | | friend -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
