Unable to mount windows share in ubuntu

Solution 1:

I've found solution on this site: Issue Mounting CIFS Share | ubuntuforums.org

Generally in Windows you should add this key in regedit. It works for me now. Key goes in: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System

Key DWORD (32-bit): LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy Key Value : 1

Solution 2:

try:

mount -t cifs //address/sharename /mnt/whatever \
-o `**username=DomainName/username**,password=password`

if it doesnt work, try:

mount.cifs //address/Share /mnt/share/ -o username=address/username

dont add a password, it should prompt u for one and possible it'll work, gl
