[Unattended] mount.cifs failing with mount error 111 = connection refused

[Travis Zadikem]

I am getting the following error when trying to mount my deployment machine
via pxe
CIFS VFS: Error connecting to IPV4 socket..Aborting operation
CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -111

recall the os on the deployment server is Centos 5.2 and here is my smb.conf
file

[global]
workgroup = lab
server string = Unattended Windows Deployment Server %v

netbios name = install
deny hosts = none
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
max log size = 500
security = user
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
local master = no
os level = 22
wins server = 10.32.0.10, 10.34.0.10
dns proxy = yes
#============================ Share Definitions
==============================


[install]
comment = Unattended
browseable = yes
writable = yes
locking = no
path = /usr/local/unattended-4.8/install
guest ok = yes


any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Fixed. Just FYI for all Samba does require the server part to be loaded
which was not loaded by default. I had to do a yum install samba which
fixed the problem. DUH!

At first glance, looks like a firewall or network problem. Are you able to
connect to the share with other windows machines?
