Note from Rick Hunter...
How to: CIFS for Windows operating systems:
-----------------------------------------------

I did it as follows:
Op mijn PC's i have directories which i want to approach geshared and gave them a share name.

In mounts (Setup/Expert Setup/Communication Setup/Mounts) modified next::

IP: 10.0.0.250 CIFS (IP of de PC to be mounted)
Dir: dreambox (Thid is the share name on the PC which points to. d:\dreambox)
The share is of course Full Control. Rights can be controled through NTFS.
Localdir: /mnt/cifs1
Options: rw
Extra: (empty.... remove everything)
User: db (a valid user on the PC/Server)
Pass: dbdbdb (matching password)

Enable Automount and choose Mount.
Choose oke and close mount manager
De mount above points to /mnt/cifs1
When in file modus go to /mnt/cifs1 and you will enter the CIFS server.

Good luck!

Remark for Windows 2003 domein controlers...
If you want to mount windows shares on the Dreambox through CIFS on a Windows 2003 Domain Controller,
then you to DISABLE 2 settings in the Domain Controller Security Policy:

- Microsoft network server: Digitally sign communications (always)
- Microsoft network server: Digitally sign communications (if client agrees)

Both values are Enabled which causes that the share can not connect to the dreambox.
