I have read a few articles about having troubles with SUSE, but seem unable to resolve my issues. I can see the domain and all the visible machines, but I can't seem to connect to shares. It says unable to resolve address.
If I do a ping to the server name I get an address and vice versa.
I thought I would try running LinNeighborhood to mount the shares like I did in 9.0. I get the same error message.
So I ran LinNeighborhood from console to see if I could get a little better error message. This is the only thing that looks fishy to me.
resolve_lmhosts: Attempting lmhosts lookup for name NEMO<0x20> resolve_wins: Attempting wins lookup for name NEMO<0x20> resolve_wins: WINS server resolution selected and no WINS servers listed. resolve_hosts: Attempting host lookup for name NEMO<0x20>
anyone lead me in the right direction here. Where is it looking for WINS servers. I have my NIC setup for DHCP and when I looked at the settings it looks like it is getting all the DNS and WINS servers for the domain.
I had the same problems. i got the same error messages with Linneighborhood. I also tried using the /etc/samba/smbfs file and the /etc/fstab file. in those cases i got the error message "SMB authentication required we have disabled it" or something like that. the command mount -t smbfs //serveripaddress/sharename /mountpoint -0 username=mikecoan,uid=mikecoan,gid=users also gave an error. I successfully mount shares on a Windows 2003 server from a Suse 9.1 box by issuing the following command as root (all on one line) mount -t cifs //192.168.1.1/SHAREDATA /home/mikecoan/MOUNTPOINT -o user=mikecoan,domain=DOMAINNAME,uid=mikecoan,gid=users,rw Substitute the real ip address and real names for the domain, share and mountpoint.
