O.K I got the answer from
http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/165
---------------------------------------------
f you receive an error message which is unrelated to authentication
you should check the end of the "dmesg" output, by running:
root@mystery:~# dmesg | tail
If the output includes the following text then you're missing the smbfs package:
smbfs: mount_data version 1919251317 is not supported
--------------------------------------
I did
# apt-get install smbfs
and it works fine :-)
I never did this for woody actualy
#apt-get install samba smbclient
was sufficent for woody :-)
Thanks again
kind regards
Siju
