Package: cifs-utils Version: 2:4.5-2+squeeze1 Severity: normal I tried to mount a CIFS filesystem automatically on boot, in my fstab:
//1.2.3.4/myshare /media/myshare cifs rw,credentials=/etc/samba/myshare.creds,uid=myuser,forceuid,gid=users,forcegid,auto 0 0 This failed, but I got it to work with two workarounds: 1. The order "username - password - domain" in the credentials file did not seem to work (mount -v -a -t cifs displayed an error, something with "incorrectly formatted password: (null) ). I edited that to "username - domain - password", which works. However, I can't reproduce the issue now. Maybe something else changed when I edited the file - line ending or invisible chars or something? 2. In /etc/init.d/mountall.sh, the mount command does not seem to actually mount the cifs, although the fs is clearly in the -t list. When I add another mount command, this worked: mount_all_local() { mount -a -t nonfs,nfs4,smbfs,cifs,ncp,ncpfs,coda,ocfs2,gfs,gfs2 -O no_netdev mount -v -a -t cifs -O no_netdev } -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable'), (51, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_AT.utf8, LC_CTYPE=de_AT.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages cifs-utils depends on: ii libc6 2.11.3-3 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libkeyutils1 1.4-1 Linux Key Management Utilities (li ii libkrb5-3 1.8.3+dfsg-4squeeze5 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libtalloc2 2.0.1-1 hierarchical pool based memory all ii samba-common 2:3.5.6~dfsg-3squeeze8 common files used by both the Samb cifs-utils recommends no packages.
