    I am having great difficulty mounting a windows share to Ubuntu.

    I have followed all the howtos I can seem to find.
    Tried editing fstab as follows.

    //server/share /mountpoint smbfs user,uid=1000 0 0

    get error: 7578: session setup failed: ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (Access denied.)
    SMB connection failed

    I have also tried the above with cifs credentials=/credentialfile. 

    Get error password in credentials file too long.
