Description R G 2013-02-17 13:59:36 CET

Description of problem:
Installed Mageia 3 (Cauldron), copied /etc/fstab from mageia 2:
//server/freenas_share /mnt/server cifs username=%,uid=myname 0 0
but can't mount the samba share anymore: I got asked for a password which is not set on the server (anonymous).
If I try to mount manually via:
$mount -t cifs //server/freenas_share  /mnt/server -o guest,sec=none
i get:
mount error(13): Permission denied

I changed nothing o the server side. I still can mount from Win7 or from my media streamer.

I tried a lot of mount or fstab lines, nothing will do.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cifs-utilities 5.9-2.mga3

How reproducible:
every time in cauldron

Comment 1 R G 2013-03-24 19:48:22 CET

my fstab line had to be changed from:
//server/freenas_share /mnt/server cifs username=%,uid=myname 0 0
to:
//horst/freenas_share /mnt/horst cifs username=%,password=,uid=myname,sec=ntlmv2 0 0

and:
mount -t cifs //horst/freenas_share  /mnt/horst --verbose -o guest,uid=myname,sec=ntlmv2
mounts now manually.

if someone would enlighten me about this problem being one of updating to cauldron or of me being stupid somewhere in the process I would be grateful.

still valid ? iirc there was some bugs on systemd

Version: Cauldron => 3

Comment 3 Martin Fiala 2013-07-21 07:38:22 CEST

I have the same problem, except that it is not for anonymous connection, but for an authenticated one. It seems more like some upstream problem or may be a new "feature".

# mount -t cifs //popcorn/Share /mnt/popcorn -o username=abc,password=123
mount error(13): Permission denied
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

adding parameter "sec=ntlmv2" works

# mount -t cifs //popcorn/Share /mnt/popcorn -o username=abc,password=123,sec=ntlmv2
