Just because there is no -c listed in that short helpfile printout, does not mean
it does not exist. try using the -c and see if it works. I would try '-c -d 777
-f 777' or '-c [-d 777 -f 777]' I will try a regular mount and see if I can get
it working. When I did it, I was mounting netware and that command is ncpmount.
I have another box i wil ltry that on tommorow and let you know.
