I just mounted a remote Windows 2000 Server share (//server/C$) and can
see all the folders and files just fine.  You may have a permissions
issue.  What are the permissions on the folders that you have created?
The user that you mount the file system as may not have persmissions to
read those folders.

Regards,
Andy.

Subject: Problem mounting Win2000 directory on RedHat 


Hello,

I have for some time been using samba to mount one of
my NT directories to a Red Hat Linux box.  I'm not
sure what the Red Hat Dist is (as an aside, how can I
determine this), but it's running kernal 2.4.7-10. 
I've recently replaced my NT installation with Win2000
and now I'm having some difficulties.  The command
I've always issued is:

mount -t smbfs -o username=jrizer/MyDomain
//MyMachine/projects /mnt/MyMachine

Now when I issue this command I get the following
error:

1729: tree connect failed: ERRDOS - Errnosuchshare
(You specified an invalid share name)

It seems that it can't locate the projects directory.

If instead I replace //MyMachine/projects with
//MyMachine/c\$, I'm able to mount my c drive but only
certain subdirectories are present in the mount.

For example 'ls -l /mnt/MyMachine' only displays
certain of the subdirectories which actually exist. 
The ones which are displayed all seem to be part of
the standard windows installation.  For example,
'Patches', 'Program Files', and 'RECYCLED' are all
present, but none of the directories I've created are.
 I can't seem to figure out what is the
differentiating factor so I can modify the 'projects'
directory accordingly. Does anyone know what my
problem might be or how I can solve it?  I apologize
for being so long winded :) 

-Jason
