[Samba] Mount smbfs

[Jason Zondor]

Hello,
I've got a FreeBSD 5.5 box running Samba 3.0.21 and every-time I try
to do a "mount -t smbfs -o username=username,password=password //
server/share /mnt/folder" I get the error "smbfs: -o username=:
option not supported".
I've google'd this with no luck... any help in the right direction is
appreciated.

mount -t smbfs //server/share/ /mnt/folder -o
username=username,password=password

Try that.

If you aren't trying to connect to win9x or OS/2, instead of -t smbfs,
try -t cifs.

Felix,
thanks for the reply but still no go.

I figured it out. Apparently in FreeBSD, I have to use "mount_smbfs //
***@server/share /local/path"

Alas, mount_smbfs does not support -o username and similar -o options.
mount_smbfs was forgotten, dusted and covered by fat bunch of web project,
which didn't updates since Samba 2.2.x. It completely ignores Samba config
files and use their own file /etc/nsmb.conf and .nsmbrc at homedir. Some
howto written by me, how to bring up to mounting SMB shares with FreeBSD you
can find at sysutils/mountsmb2 port.

Also:
man nsmb.conf
man mount_smbfs

That's all is a very sad. FreeBSD lacks much with dropping support modern
tendences with SMB/CIFS...
