Hello

I need some help with mounting cifs.
It works to mount a windows share from another real computer on our
real network

I have also tried to mount a windows share from one of my wiritual
machines(has a host-only network connection), which gives me this
error:

mount error 113 = No route to host

What's strange is that it is possible to browse through the viritual's
share with nautilus,
using smb://172.16.198.12 So I can connect to the viritual computer(and
it can be pinged). The only thing that does'nt work is cifs

ifconfig of /dev/vmnet1
Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:56:C0:00:01
inet addr:172.16.198.1 Bcast:172.16.198.255
Mask:255.255.255.0

ipconfig from viritual machine:
ip: 172.16.198.128
sub-mask: 255.255.255.0
DHCP-server 172.16.198.254
DNS-server: 172.16.198.1

Any ideas?
