I would suggest to check this myusername/mypassword on NT side first.
Can this user create files in the specified directory
(linux/home/cjohnson/server1/linux)?
Also I would mount with rw option if you'll need to create files on smb
filesystem:
 mount -t smbfs -o
username=myusername,password=mypassword,rw,ip=your_smb_server_ip
//server1/linux /home/cjohnson/server1/linux
Best regards,
Denis.
