Have you tried no password?
Hi, i've been using backtrack for quite a while but i've enconuntered a problem that i can't seem to solve.
I am trying to connect to my PC (Asus/Vista Home Premium SP1) throught the NETBIOS by using:
but it then immediatly asks me for a password:Code:smbclient //ASUSGAME-PC/C$ -I 172.18.2.103
But my computer has no password, i have not set up any password. Is there a default password that im unaware of. I've tried a bunch of passwords (default,password,admin,etc.) but to no avail.Code:Enter root's password:
If anybody has any idea about this I'd be mighty glad.
Thanks.![]()
Have you tried no password?
if it is looking for the root password isnt that the defaults for ubuntu when installed?
eg.
default username : root
default password: toor
??
No password and a username of root? I'd lay good odds that doesn't work. Now if you told smbclient to try connecting as a different user perhaps...
Still not underestimating the power...
There is no such thing as bad information - There is truth in the data, so you sift it all, even the crap stuff.
Create user name and set a password on your WINbox, and this is how i connect to Win7
smbmount //IP/SHARENAME /mnt/WIN7 -o user=username
First of all, SMB uses backslashes, not forward slashes.
Try \\IP\share.
Next, Windows doesn't allow system shares (C$, IPC$ etc) to be mounted/connected with a blanc password. You'll need to give your account a (simple if you like) password.
If you don't know your useraccount name, try going to the C:\documents and settings\ (WXP) or the C:\Users (Win7) folder and see if you have an account next to "All Users". Most likely you login with administrator and a blank password.
