I have FreeBSD 4.5-STABLE and I compiled my kernel with the following
added options:

# samba filesystem options
options         SMBFS                   #SMB/CIFS filesystem
options         NETSMB                  #SMB/CIFS requester
options         NETSMBCRYPTO            #encrypted password support for SMB
options         LIBMCHAIN               #mbuf management library
options         LIBICONV                #Kernel side iconv library

However when I try to mount a Windows partition on the unix machine I get
the following error:

su-2.05# mount_smbfs  //guest@devin/mmpi /usr/xpbox
Warning: no cfg file(s) found.
Password:
mount_smbfs: can't get handle to requester (no /dev/nsmb* device)
su-2.05# 

I tried to do a ./MAKEDEV nsmb0 in the /dev but it did the following:
