15 yes, i'm not surprised...which is why I added the comment about
16 avoiding spaces. if you can't avoid the space in the future,
17 sometimes you can escape it (for instance, you'd do //
18 lkg5f.homenet.com/DISK\ 2). Not sure if smbmount will let you do
19 that but if you can't change the share name, it's worth a try.
