Run
mkdir /home/hs/testsamba
tail -f /var/log/messages
on the client and try both
mount -v -t cifs //192.168.0.8/testsamba /home/hs/testsamba -o
domain=smbwg,username=hs,password=<password>,port=139
mount -v -t cifs //192.168.0.8/testsamba /home/hs/testsamba -o
domain=smbwg,username=hs,password=<password>,port=445
