Hey Guys,

I've been trying to solve this one for a while.

I have installed Fedora Core 2 on the same HDD as WinXP Pro (dual boot).

I am wanting to access a drive on the XP (ntfs) partition in Fedora. I have Samba installed and working (can access LAN shares on a network), however i am having troubles with accessing shares on a dual boot. I have 4 partitions in windows, and have shared 'f drive'.

I have tried a couple of command which tell me samba can not connect. These commands include:

smbmount //windows/share /linux/mount/point -o
username=windowsusername,password=windowspassword

and
mount -t smbfs //windows/share /linux/mount/point -o
username=windowsusername,password=windowspassword

This is quite annoying, as i was able to do it with my old Win98ME (fat32) and RedHat7.1.

Please help!

Thanks,
