I am having trouble mounting with cifs, but mounting the exact same command with smbfs works fine. The share is on another samba server and is set to full public guest access.

code:

# mount -t cifs //servername/sharename /mnt/temp -o password=""
mount error 13 = Permission denied
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)

==> /var/log/messages <==
Sep 1 16:43:25 clientname Status code returned 0xc000006d NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE
Sep 1 16:43:25 clientname CIFS VFS: Send error in SessSetup = -13
Sep 1 16:43:25 clientname CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -13

# mount -t smbfs //servername/sharename /mnt/temp -o password=""
Anonymous login successful


I can then read and write files in /mnt/temp over smbfs but I cannot even mount it using cifs, but there are other cifs filesystems from other samba servers that mounted fine on this machine. I have the same problem mounting this one share from all linux boxen... but those same linux boxen can mount cifs shares from other machines just fine.

Any ideas why?
