that message indicates you did not type it as shown. they probably |

if you NEED a password but don't pass it, you'll get a permission |
| 21 |
denied error. if you get usage, you mucked the syntax. try it |

exactly as I had it above, but replacing the mountpoint at the |
| 23 |
end..and if it fails, cut and paste EXACTLY what you typed. |
