samba share.
Prior to making change to fstab the line look as such.

On Jaunty i had no issue as the user has access to the mount points
mentioned above and since wiping and re-loading the system in order to
get these to mount i had to add an additional \ in from of the network
hostname name see below.

With this now in place my network shares are now accessible.
Can you please help as that is the only work around found.
