I am trying to mount a linux file system on another linux machine, This is the
error I get. The exact command I am using works from another machine.

This is the command and error:
root@xbian:~# mount -t cifs //192.168.249.71/music /media/SS -o username=root,password=froboz
mount error(13): Permission denied
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)



Any suggestions?

Try this:

Terminal

mkdir /home/xbian/mymount
mount -t cifs -o username=root,password=froboz //192.168.249.71/music /home/xbian/mymount
mount -t cifs //192.168.249.71/music /media/SS -o username=root,password=froboz


Yes /media/SS is the directory to mount to.
