    authenticating Windows uname & domain

    Hi,

    I'm having troubles accessing a samba share with Dolphin from my Linux box, I've tried entering DOMAIN/uname,\\DOMAIN\uname, DOMAIN\uname & password, but somehow nothing allows me to connect, LXDE on the other hand asked me for user, domain & password in three separate fields and i was able to connect to the samba share just fine with it. How do I get this accomplished with KDE properly?

    Thanks,
    Ron

    try smb:/<IP or hostname> for your address
    if a usr/pass is needed you should be prompted.

        do you see the domain if you use Network -> samba shares in dolphin? you might have to join that domain.

        here smb:/<Domain>/machine works (then again they are all on the default workgroup domain.)

          I also unsuccesfylly tried:

          reg@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount -t cifs //IP/SHARE/ /home/reg/Greenwood/ -o username=USER,password=PASS,domain=DOMAIN
          mount error(13): Permission denied
          Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

            Yes, I can see that domain but smb:/<Domain> asks me for my user credentials which i can't supply in the correct format for some reason...
