Mount.cifs Input/Output error

Hi,

I am getting the I/O error when trying to mount the samba share.

Here is the result of smbclient commands:

[root::/]~:smbclient -L //192.168.0.1/ -U%
WARNING: Ignoring invalid value 'share' for parameter 'security'
Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.14a]

        Sharename       Type      Comment
        ---------       ----      -------
        Volume1         Disk      
        IPC$            IPC       IPC Service ()
        ADMIN$          IPC       IPC Service ()
Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.14a]

        Server               Comment
        ---------            -------

        Workgroup            Master
        ---------            -------

Also, using the smbclient, it seems to be working:

[root::/]~:smbclient //192.168.0.1/Volume1
WARNING: Ignoring invalid value 'share' for parameter 'security'
Enter payek's password: <giving no password here! - it is not protected>

  .Trash-1000                        DH        0  Fri Jan 18 18:33:01 2013

However, when I am trying to mount it, I am receiving I/O error:

[root::/]~:mount.cifs \\\\192.168.0.1\\Volume1 /mnt -o guest -v
mount.cifs kernel mount options: ip=192.168.0.1,unc=\\192.168.0.1\Volume1,user=,pass=********
mount error(5): Input/output error
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

Tried without "guest", with username "admin", with my password or without it, with added domain and/or with added workgroup - it always ends with I/O error.

One more detail - I am trying to mount the samba share from TP-LINK WR1043ND router.

Thank you for your help!

Re: Mount.cifs Input/Output error

Try using forward slashes instead of backslashes.
