Hi, I am using this router

Thomson TG587n v2, branded by O2. This router has a bundled Network File Server so you can attach a USB drive on it and share it among computers. I have configured the server as appropriately and I am able to see my shares using

\\<server or ip addr> from Windows Explorer. However, if I try to use mount.cifs to access the share from my Gentoo box, I get the following error


Code:
mount.cifs //192.168.1.254/ /mnt/Disk/ -o "guest,domain=HOME"
mount error 115 = Operation now in progress


This sort of error code does not say much. I have already looked at the relevant section in fs/cifs/connect.c file in linux kernel but I found nothing interesting in there. I enabled the debug support for CIFS and this is what I get in dmesg


Code:
[ 2847.584470] fs/cifs/cifsfs.c: Devname: //192.168.1.254/ flags: 64

Seems like the actual server had a different IP from the Router itself. So I used the nmblookup utility to find out the real IP of the server. Solved :D
