TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

=46ound the solution for the problem widely described below, after the=20
<><>.... symbols.

Here you are the solution:

I created under /root the following
=B0=B0=B0=B0=B0=B0=B0 .nsmbrc file

[default]
workgroup=3DBOH_SS

# The 'FSERVER' is an NT server.
[SRVS1]
#charsets=3Dkoi8-r:cp866
addr=3Dsrvs1.boh_ss

[SRVS1:A00BCDD]
# use persistent password cache for user 'A00BCD'
password=3Dgiulietta=20

I didn't change a line in my=20

=B0=B0=B0=B0=B0=B0=B0smb.conf file

[global]

   workgroup =3D BOH_SS

# server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field
   server string =3D VicBSD
   load printers =3D no
   log file =3D /var/log/samba/log.%m
   log level =3D 1
   max log size =3D 50


   security =3D user
    nt acl support =3D no
  encrypt passwords =3D yes
  smb passwd file =3D /usr/local/private/smbpasswd
   domain master =3D no
#   wins support =3D yes
   wins server =3D 10.155.1.122 10.155.1.211=20
#=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D=3D=3D=3D Share Definitions=20
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=

[homes]
#   comment =3D Home Directories
#   browseable =3D no
#   writable =3D yes
    read only =3D No


****************

Thanks to the .nsmbrc file I was able to connect to the windows share=20
with the following command line (adding the option -N to force samba=20
read the password from .nsmbrc):

mount_smbfs -N //a00bcd@srvs1/Data /mnt/smb

in so doing samba desn't ask for the password and connects to the share=20
smoothlhy!

What puzzles me (any explanation?) is that:

1) Even though I declare my username a00bcd in the .nsmbrc file I have=20
to repeat it in the mount_smbsf line otherwise, issuing e.g =20
mount_smbfs -N //srvs1/Data /mnt/smb
 it doesn't mount the share complaining about  something wrong with the=20
authorization;

2) I still don't understand why - without the  -N option I'm correctly=20
asked for a password but samba continues to be unable to connect the=20
share.

Anyway my occasional solution works fine!



Thanks to ALL  for the many suggestions

Vittorio
