has no one ever used a space in a password before? -----Original Message----- From: Erik Soderquist Sent: Monday, July 07, 2003 12:50 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Samba] embedding characters
i seem to be having trouble with certain characters in machine names and passwords. specifically, there is a hyphen in on of the server's names. this entry in the fstab file fails to connect with the following error: # mount /root/it-blackbox/c\$/ Password: Anonymous login successful 18867: tree connect failed: ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (Access denied.) SMB connection failed the line from fstab is: //it-blackbox/c$ /root/it-blackbox/c$ smbfs noauto,credentials=/root/.smbauth 0 0 the .smbauth file contents are: username = administrator workgroup = mcstamp this work correctly for another share on a machine without the hyphen in the name on the same domain. the other problem i have is that the password has a space in it, and I can't seem to get the password to work using quotes or using the backslash. this forces me to do an interactive mount (yes, i know i have it set to noauto. that is because it fails the password and i have to do it manually anyway. i don't want it to sit and wait for the password during bootup.)
