Try:
| Code: | | mount.cifs //192.168.1.100/H-BCP /root/mnt -o servernetbiosname=SHELDON,username=xxx,password=xxx |
or
| Code: | | mount.cifs //192.168.1.100/H-BCP /root/mnt -o servernetbiosname=SHELDON |
or
| Code: | | mount.cifs //192.168.1.100/H-BCP /root/mnt -o servernetbiosname=SHELDON,guest |

OK, rcrsn51. You said I should try these 3; here's what happened-
First I did this:
| Code: | | mount.cifs //192.168.1.100/H-BCP /root/mnt -o servernetbiosname=SHELDON |
It asked for a Password, I pressed Enter and it mounted.
I'll unmount and try the other two.
| Code: | | mount.cifs //192.168.1.100/H-BCP /root/mnt -o servernetbiosname=SHELDON,username=xxx,password=xxx |
This worked, didn't ask for a password.
| Code: | | mount.cifs //192.168.1.100/H-BCP /root/mnt -o servernetbiosname=SHELDON,guest |
This also worked, didn't ask for a password.
And so did this work, didn't ask for a password.
| Code: | | mount.cifs //SHELDON/H-BCP /root/mnt -o servernetbiosname=SHELDON,guest |

Excellent!
I'll make a new version of samba-login and get back to you.

I have posted the new version samba-share-mount-1.3.pet at the start of the thread. Please give it a test and report back. Leave the Options field blank.

Thanks.
I hope more people can test and report.
The version 1.1 worked fine for me, and I was going to say I will take some time to do other things, for a while.
Version 1.3 gave the "No connection to xxx-share!"

I may have to set up a Win98 machine to test this properly. 
Since v1.1 worked, can you do one more test with v1.3? In the Options box, type dom=WORKGROUP. That's the only significant difference between the two versions and maybe the Win98 server needs it.

I guess that it's been found to work with such as Windows 2000, XP, etc
OK, I will try the dom=WORKGROUP later this afternoon.
Thanks.

Just to be clear - are you testing with Lupu or with 214x?
Also, could you do a test by putting some dummy data in the Username and Password fields?

Will try.
I've been, and will, test with Lupu, Puppy 5.11 from the netbook, to Win98se on _this_ box
------------------
(a little later)
I _think_ I'm using ver 1.3
The log-in worked with only the share and server (in CAPS). I think it did before? Maybe it was only the Samba share selector which didn't work.
Not sure whether this is what you meant, rcrsn51 ? I did the log-in with dom=WORKGROUP, also worked.
Next: filled in dummy data in the Username and Password fields, but left options blank. Worked.
Next: same as above, but with dom=WORKGROUP. Worked.
Will do one more try, with lower case server and share. Doesn't work.
==============
Tried the Samba share selector with the following .dat,worked.
| Code: |
#1# Don't change the first nine lines of this file!
#2# The data starts on Line 10.
#3# Each line of data describes a network share.
#4# There are six fields separated by commas. See the sample data below.
#5# The fields are: description, username, password, share, server, workgroup
#6# If the share does not require a login, leave the username and password fields blank.
#7# The workgroup field is optional.
#8# The last line of the file must be EOF.
#9#
BCP,guest,xxx,H-BCP,SHELDON,dom=workgroup
Sources,guest,xxx,SOURCES,SHELDON,dom=WORKGROUP
EOF
|
Not sure this is version 1.3?
Can you tell from the file dates etc, at bottom?

G'day,
I have been trying your Samba-TNG pet and been happily surprised that it works with three different XP computers on my home network using \\pupserver.
Is the package you've offered in this thread different to those Samba-TNG pets in a way you could outline? I'll be trying this one anyway when I get the chance.
Re the Samba-TNG, I think when I've tried it as a server on my main desktop, when I shut down that Pup, it takes many seconds longer to close - is there be something I should be doing to get the normal quick Puppy close? I found this prolonged shutting down with two Pups (4.2 and 2.4.6) which on re-start and not starting Samba both closed quickly as normal.
Thanks for your excellent dancing lessons,
David S.

I really should have numbered these better. The new versions have an Options field and the old ones have Workgroup. So your Samba share selector example above is an old version.
Can you confirm that your samba-login test was with a new version? It sounds like the key is to use upper case server and share names.

The Samba-TNG thread has the samba-tng-rcrsn-client-1.4.pet, which also contains the samba-login and samba-shares programs. Those versions were designed primarily to access the Samba-TNG server.
The versions here are a bit more general so they can work in situations like sheldon's Win98 filesharing machine. If you have a client machine with samba-tng-rcrsn-client-1.4.pet installed, you can install this samba-share-mount-1.3.pet over top of it.

I have seen slow shutdowns on client machines when I didn't first unmount a share. If the problem is on the server machine, just run samba-stop before quitting.

I'm pretty sure the tests were with ver 1.3, but will check again.
Sorry, I realized after I sent the above that I'd used a .dat modified from the one I'd used with ver 1.

It sounds like v1.3 is good, except that the share and server names must be in upper case. (A Win XP server doesn't care.)
If you can confirm this, I'll make another version that automatically converts them to caps.
Version 1.3 now works in Puppy 2.14X on my system with an XP share. Perhaps you can test this sometime with your Win98 share.

I used the Puppy Package Manager to uninstall all the versions.
Then installed 1.3
And pasted into the .dat the two lines for my Win98 shares.
| Code: |
# more /usr/local/samba/client/samba-shares.dat
#1# Don't change the first nine lines of this file!
#2# The data starts on Line 10.
#3# Each line of data describes a network share.
#4# There are six fields separated by commas. See the sample data below.
#5# The fields are: description, username, password, share, server, options
#6# If the share does not require a login, leave the username and password fields blank.
#7# The options field is optional. Multiple options MUST be separated by semicolons.
#8# The last line of the file MUST be EOF.
#9#
BCP,guest,xxx,H-BCP,SHELDON,dom=workgroup
Sources,guest,xxx,SOURCES,SHELDON,dom=WORKGROUP
Meghan's WinXP Share,,,share,acer
Music Collection,public,public,music,pupserver,iocharset=utf8;dom=MYGROUP
EOF
#
|
I see that "workgroup" is in lower as well as upper case.
It works, both for the Samba share login and for the Samba share selector.

I may be able to.
Thanks again.
