Re: Samba Won't Mount, Buster to Bullseye migration

I just re-installed my Samba server, formerly on Buster, now on
Bullseye. This has worked in the past, including Bullseye clients
mounting a share on a Buster server. I have one share defined, for my
user:
[samba]
path = /crc/samba
valid users = charles
read only = no
/etc/fstab has the following line (possibly wrapped in transit):
# # SMB mount per

and some experimenting. ,noauto //samba.localdomain/samba
/home/charles/samba cifs

So when I try to mount, I get:
root@hawk:~# mount /home/charles/samba/ && ll /home/charles/samba/
mount error(13): Permission denied
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) and kernel
log messages (dmesg) root@hawk:~#
syslog shows:

charles@hawk:~$ ll -d samba/

Searching on that last line turned up nothing informative. The man page
for mount.cifs wasn't very informative.
Getting Samba shares working can be very difficult. In recent years,
the authentication mode has been my primary issue -- I had to lower it
to a deprecated level to get shares to work. I have yet to find a
rational process for debugging Samba server shares and client mounts.
The following represents "RTFM, STFW, poke at it until it works, and
then stop". I very much doubt that it is "correct".
Here is the server:
2021-10-26 22:31:18 toor@samba ~
# freebsd-version ; uname -a
12.2-RELEASE-p10
FreeBSD samba.tracy.holgerdanske.com 12.2-RELEASE-p7 FreeBSD
12.2-RELEASE-p7 GENERIC amd64
2021-10-26 22:31:19 toor@samba ~
# pkg info 'samba*'

2021-10-26 22:31:24 toor@samba ~
# egrep -A 9 '\[global\]' /usr/local/etc/smb4.conf
[global]
local master = Yes
netbios name = SAMBA
ntlm auth = ntlmv1-permitted
passdb backend = tdbsam
preferred master = Yes
security = USER
server string = Samba Server Version %v
wins support = Yes
workgroup = WORKGROUP
2021-10-26 22:31:31 toor@samba ~
# egrep -A 3 '\[dpchrist\]' /usr/local/etc/smb4.conf
[dpchrist]
path = /var/local/samba/dpchrist
read only = No
valid users = dpchrist
Here is the client:
2021-10-26 22:39:01 root@tinkywinky ~

Linux tinkywinky 4.9.0-16-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.272-2 (2021-07-19)

# grep 'samba/dpchrist' /etc/fstab
//samba/dpchrist /home/dpchrist/samba/dpchrist cifs
noauto,vers=3.0,user,username=dpchrist 0 0
I mount the share manually:
2021-10-26 22:34:32 dpchrist@tinkywinky ~
$ mount samba/dpchrist
Password for dpchrist@//samba/dpchrist: ********
Good luck.
