I'm currently struggeling with a cifs mount from a windows 2003 server. The share can be mounted with mount.cifs, but despite using the rw mount option, the mountpoint can only be accessed read-only. Trying to write on the share results in a permission denied error. This happens on a 2.4.21 kernel with the shipped CIFS kernel module.
The mount command used is: mount.cifs //<w2k3server>/<share>$ /mnt \ -o username=<user>,workgroup=<workgroup>,password=<pwd>,file_mode=0664,dir_mode=0775,uid=<localuid>,gid=<localgid>,rw The kernel output after enabling extended debugging: dir.c: CIFS VFS: in cifs_lookup as Xid: 108299 with uid: 0 dir.c: parent inode = 0xe754c200 name is: bla and dentry = 0xef5317a0 dir.c: len 4 dir.c: NULL inode in lookup dir.c: Full path: \bla inode = 0x00000000 inode.c: CIFS VFS: in cifs_get_inode_info as Xid: 108300 with uid: 0 inode.c: Getting info on \bla cifssmb.c: In QPathInfo path \bla transport.c: For smb_command 50 transport.c: Sending smb of length 82 connect.c: Peek length rcvd: 36 with smb length: 39 connect.c: Mid 0xc7a8 matched - waking up transport.c: Unexpected signature received from server Status code returned 0xc0000034 NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND netmisc.c: !!Mapping smb error code 2 to POSIX err -2 !! cifssmb.c: Send error in QPathInfo = -2 inode.c: CIFS VFS: leaving cifs_get_inode_info (xid = 108300) rc = -2 dir.c: CIFS VFS: leaving cifs_lookup (xid = 108299) rc = 0 dir.c: CIFS VFS: in cifs_create as Xid: 108301 with uid: 0 dir.c: len 4 transport.c: For smb_command 162 transport.c: Sending smb of length 94 connect.c: Peek length rcvd: 36 with smb length: 39 connect.c: Mid 0xc7a9 matched - waking up transport.c: Unexpected signature received from server Status code returned 0xc0000022 NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED netmisc.c: !!Mapping smb error code 5 to POSIX err -13 !! cifssmb.c: Error in Open = -13 dir.c: cifs_create returned 0xfffffff3 dir.c: CIFS VFS: leaving cifs_create (xid = 108301) rc = -13 dir.c: CIFS VFS: in cifs_lookup as Xid: 108302 with uid: 0 dir.c: parent inode = 0xe754c200 name is: bla and dentry = 0xef5317a0 dir.c: len 4 dir.c: NULL inode in lookup dir.c: Full path: \bla inode = 0x00000000 inode.c: CIFS VFS: in cifs_get_inode_info as Xid: 108303 with uid: 0 inode.c: Getting info on \bla cifssmb.c: In QPathInfo path \bla transport.c: For smb_command 50 transport.c: Sending smb of length 82 connect.c: Peek length rcvd: 36 with smb length: 39 connect.c: Mid 0xc7aa matched - waking up transport.c: Unexpected signature received from server Status code returned 0xc0000034 NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND netmisc.c: !!Mapping smb error code 2 to POSIX err -2 !! cifssmb.c: Send error in QPathInfo = -2 inode.c: CIFS VFS: leaving cifs_get_inode_info (xid = 108303) rc = -2 dir.c: CIFS VFS: leaving cifs_lookup (xid = 108302) rc = 0 Any help is appreciated.
