Re: SMB connection failed

Thanks for your replies guys !! but the issue is not with the command i
tried both smbmount and mount with proper switches!!

The issue is with the firewall, if i disable it then the smbmount -t
and mount works perfectly fine, for reference i have given the iptables
file below.
