May 17, 201412 yr Ok so I'm having trouble mounting my smb shares in my Arch VM cifs-utils is installed ...

As you might guess I have no problems accessing shares from windows, my BD player can see them, my android phone can see them ... but my Arch VM exceeds my skill level. Also, my shares on Tower are all set to "Public" and I have no users setup beyond root.
