Hi all,

I've been experiencing some problems mounting a Windows XP SP2 share in 
FreeBSD 4.10. My samba version is samba-2.2.8a_2. I have turned off the 
firewall on the windows machine, and all traffic on the FreeBSD machine's 
internal 192.168.0 subnet flows freely.

I am trying to mount a share called 'backups' on the windoze machine with 
the following command:
mount_smbfs -I 192.168.0.11 //guest@192.168.0.11/backups /mnt/backups/

... i am prompted for a password and i enter it. I then get this message:
mount_smbfs: unable to open connection: syserr = Connection reset by peer

If I give mount_smbfs the -N switch it makes no difference. The connection 
keeps getting reset. I can ping the windows machine and the windows machine 
can browse the samba shares on the FreeBSD machine.

Can anyone offer a helping hand?

Thanks,
Gareth
