I use this line in fstab:

//172.16.168.128/COMPARTIDA   /mnt/smb/bambi  cifs  noauto,user     0 0

It is a Win-Me virtual machine in a vmware in the linux host, the same one 
I try to connect from. From konqueror I connect without problems: it asks 
for user and passwords, and works.

nimrodel:~ # ping bambi

cer@nimrodel:~> mount /mnt/smb/bambi/
Password:
mount error 1 = Operation not permitted
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)


It doesn't ask for the username, but it is the same as the local user 
(cer).

If I change the fstab line to

//172.16.168.128/COMPARTIDA    /mnt/smb/bambi  cifs   noauto,user,user=cer    0 0

I get:

nimrodel:~ # mount /mnt/smb/bambi/
Password:
mount error 2 = No such file or directory
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)


I change back to

//172.16.168.128/COMPARTIDA    /mnt/smb/bambi  cifs   noauto,user     0 0


and retry:

nimrodel:~ # USER=cer mount /mnt/smb/bambi/
Password:
mount error 2 = No such file or directory
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)


On other ocassions I get host down, which is false. I have never been able 
to connect to any samba share except by using konqueror. Never. Not in my 
machine, not in others.

It has been said that cifs is buggy and incomplete :-(

I'm not sure what Win-Me uses.
