However, your terminal command works for me and I can mount it's shares (albeit one at a time).

The other Windows XP machine shows up in Finder, but says Connection Failed when I click on it. One Windows XP one shows up in Finder as type Sharepoint (? Sharepoint is not installed on that PC) and I can browse its shares just fine. Thank you so much JRansomed for your help. I'm not sure if it won't try and back them up. If you are using Time Machine, you might want to exempt any mount points you create. (I'm hoping they won't leave this broken.) Hopefully this will help until Apple starts releasing updates to Lion. It has allowed me to mount other shares with another username on the same server. The only other odd thing here, is it does seem to have issues with then trying to mount another share from the same server with the same username. You can access your files from in this folder, or if you have set Finder to show mounted shares on the desktop, you will see it on the desktop as well.

Once you've completed entering your password it will mount to the folder you specified. As you type, you will not see anything on the screen, but it is taking the password. Give this a little time after hitting enter, it will prompt you in the terminal to enter your share's password. Share is the share name you wish to connect to.ĭata is the folder you wish to mount this share to, in this case we created 'data' as the mount point. Myserver is the server name or IP of the server you wish to connect to. Myusername is the username you need to connect with. Below is the command used to mount a share. Now that we have a folder to mount the share to, lets get down to business. In my case, this will have created a folder in my home directory named 'data'. Lets make a folder called 'data' by entering the following:

When you first open terminal, it should place you in your home directory. You will need to open terminal for this.įirst we need to make a place to mount the share to.

The ugly work around (Mount from the CLI)įortunately for us, there is the CLI method. It appears to completely ignore any username you add to the url. I have managed to get SMB working and will try to explain what I think is happening.Īs best as I can tell, when we try to map a SMB or CIFS share from the GUI, it appears to send the username and password of the logged in user. It's not pretty, but it has gotten me into all my servers and a number of SMB shares.ĭefinitely issues with Apples new SMB implementation. I'm going to pretty much paste what I put in another post that was discussing this. The logs are definitely reporting errors, but there's not much to find regarding the errors. An offer to help analyze someones logs would have been better. I just love posts like logs are your friend and a reference to the console.app That was a pretty worthless post.
