Re: cifs mount

Hi Chris,

Quick question: is the target that you are trying to mount from a Windows box, or a Linux box? Just wondering if its an SMB version problem.

Cheers!

Paul.

Hi,

We have a samba share here of the form //<domain>/<server?>/<share>.  I used to be able to mount this, but in no longer works, When I try, I get this result:

$mount.cifs //xxx/yyy/zzz /myshare --verbose -o credentials=cifs.creds

mount.cifs kernel mount options: ip=10.50.66.240,unc=\\xxx\yyy,uid=1000,gid=1000,user=cdj03,domain=xxx,prefixpath=myshare,pass=********
mount error(2): No such file or directory

And the kernel log shows:

CIFS: Attempting to mount //xxx/yyy/zzz

CIFS VFS: BAD_NETWORK_NAME: \\xxx\yyy

CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -2

I can mount this share successfully from a Windows box. Any ideas on how to get this working again?

-Chris
