mounting a cifs share

First, make sure you've loaded the CIFS module (use lsmod to make sure
it is loaded).

Second, I would append credentials to your command.

mount -t cifs //server/share -v -o user=username,pass=password

(the -v asks it to be more verbose, which might be helpful in diagnosing
any other issues).

Subject: mounting a cifs share

Hi all,
since the mount command seems to offer support for mounting cifs shares
I just wanted to try it, but couldnt mount the share:
busybox mount -t cifs //192.168.1.100/share_d /mnt/win32
mount: mounting \\192.168.1.100\share_d on /mnt/win32 failed: No such
device

what I'm doing wrong? Same command works fine with standard Linux
mount...

Guen.
