I've not tried doing this and this is a shot in the dark, but you might try accessing your shares as \\\\server\\sharename rather than the standard \\server\sharename. It could be that your Linux machine needs to have the \ characters in the network path escaped in order to work. Again, shot in the dark and I can't guarantee anything, but worth trying. -- Chris "I trust the Democrats to take away my money, which I can afford.
