I know this question has been asked before, but I've been looking for a solution for a couple of hours now and nothing seems to be working.

The frustrating thing is that it used to work on my previous install, so I know the commands I try should work.

I'm running a vanilla install of Ubuntu 13.04 server.

I have a server running at 192.168.1.130 and two shares: LaCie and Seagate 2TB.

I used to have these lines in my fstab file:

//192.168.1.130/Seagate0402TB /home/Windows cifs user=admin,password=password,uid=1000 0 0

Now that I re-installed my server, but don't need it permanently I tried the following:

sudo mount.cifs //192.168.1.130/LaCie ~/lacie -o user=admin

or

sudo mount -t cifs -o username='admin',password='<password>' //192.168.1.130/LaCie ~/lacie

However, I get the error mount error(13): Permission denied.

I'm sure the credentials are correct. Nothing has changed at the windows side.

Also, I installed the packages samba, cifs-utils too. Nothing helped.
