Hi
i posted ages ago about mounting my windows shares, i got the write command but i get errors and i cant make head nor tail of it
anyone any ideas?

Code:

# mount -t smbfs -o username=Administrator,password=******** //192.168.0.1/Downloads /mnt/winshare
timeout connecting to 192.168.0.1:139
Error connecting to 192.168.0.1 (Operation already in progress)
14811: Connection to 192.168.0.1 failed


Im trying it as root because as far as i can tell to do it by a user ive gotta add aline to my fstab right?
thanks for any help:)

There isn't a firewall on 192.168.0.1 blocking access to the share, is there?

As far as your syntax, it is correct.
