AIX cifs: mount Windows Server 2008 share ?
Hello,

I've been using AIX cifs to mount windows XP shares with no problems till now.
Now it's Windows Server 2008 R2 - no go:
Code:
mount -v cifs -n host1/user1/pass1 /share1 /mountpt1
There was an error connecting the share or the server.
Make sure the lsdev command shows that device nsmb0 is in
the Available state.  Also make sure that the share name,
user name and password are accurate.

Response is so instant that it's clearly not a network issue (while network admin was configuring access I saw significant timeouts while network access was closed).
Windows XP share works on the same machine.
Tried these AIX levels:
AIX 6100-02-04
AIX 6100-06-03
So I consider AIX level is not an issue either?

Where is the catch?
Any ideas?

thanks
Vilius
