Well, for me, using smbmount 2.0.2, the backslash characters just don't
work. Try forward slashes:
smbmount //win/WING <etc>
Attempting to use the backslashes always gives me a usage note.
And, yes, smbclient likes the backslashes OK, as long as you escape them
properly...
As an aside, I think it makes some sense *not* to handle the
backslashes. I mean, if you mount a VFAT partition, backslashes don't
work as directory separators, now do they?
