mount_smbfs can't get handle to requester

[Ray Seals]

I have a box running 4.5.  I try to execute the mount_smbfs I get
"mount_smbfs: can't get handle to requester (no /dev/nsmb* device)".
When I do an ls of the /dev directory I see the following devices:

/dev/nsmb0
/dev/smb0
/dev/smb1

Anyone seen this before?

Ray

In order to use mount_smbfs you should include the following
options in your kernel config file:

options SMBFS
options LIBMCHAIN
options LIBICONV
options NETSMB
options NETSMBCRYPTO

So try to recompile your kernel with these options. Also run
/dev/MAKEDEV all.

mount_smbfs: can't get handle to requester (no /dev/nsmb* device)

[Markku Kokko]

Hi all ! 

I have a little problem here mounting or browsing samba shares.

I have FreeBSD 4.6.2 running on both samba server and client, and a share on the 
server called public.

when I try to mount that share it asks for password, and then gives an
error:

ex.

libra# mount_smbfs //maxi@samba/public /mnt
Password:
mount_smbfs: can't get handle to requester (no /dev/nsmb* device)
libra# 

I can list the shares with smbclient, no errors at all.

I can not login to the samba like this:

libra# smbutil login //maxi@samba
Password:
smbutil: can't get handle to requester (no /dev/nsmb* device)
smbutil: can't get handle to requester (no /dev/nsmb* device)
smbutil: could not login to server SAMBA: syserr = Invalid argument
libra# 

I have checked /dev and there is one entry for nsmb0:

libra# ll /dev/nsmb*
crw---  1 root  wheel  144,   0 Oct 14 15:23 /dev/nsmb0
libra# 

I don't think the problem is server related because it works on another
Windows workstation on the same LAN.

Any ideas on what this might be?
Need more info? Just ask, I'll give all info I can...
