Nope....

"sudo net -d 1 rpc join -S servername -U admin%password

cli_start_connection: failed to connect to SERVERNAME<20>
(192.168.1.72). Error NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL
Cannot connect to server (anonymously).  Error was NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL
Connection failed: NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL
failed to make ipc connection: NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL
cli_start_connection: failed to connect to SERVERNAME<20>
(192.168.1.72). Error NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL
Could not connect to server servername
Connection failed: NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL
"

seems to be ignoring username password and or really cant see server.
Any other ideas?
