Haven't got the entire thread here, but I got stumped with this one a long time ago so thought I'd share my experience.. using smbclient or mount -t smbfs you have to remember that Bash shell on RedHat Linux uses special characters to represent certain functions. When connecting to a windows hidden share (usually represented by dollar '$'), the bash shell will expect a variable unless you 'escape' the character, using the backslash '\'. so you would use: mount -t smbfs -o username=name/domain%password //server/hiddenshare\$ /my/mount you may need to set the UID and/or GID to be able to get access to your share when using a non-priviledged account. append options after -o using commas -o UID=user,GID=user n.
