Bug#480995: [Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#480995: smbfs: Fails to mount.cifs etch samba server in 2.6.25
Can you also try with the version of samba in experimental I tried that smbfs version and no improvement. I also tried 2.6.25-2 and that doesn't work either (with both versions of smbfs) -- Tarek -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#480995: [Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#480995: smbfs: Fails to mount.cifs etch samba server in 2.6.25
Quoting Tarek Soliman ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): Package: smbfs Version: 3.0.28-2+b1 Severity: important After upgrading to 2.6.25, I can no longer mount my etch samba server share using mount.cifs from my unstable laptop The following error is given mount error 20 = Not a directory Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs) Booting in 2.6.24 mounts it fine. What did you upgrade to 2.6.25? The server, or the client? Apparently, from what I read here and there, many changes have been made to the CIFS driver in 2.6.25 (and the smbfs driver has just been dropped...finally). I want at least to have as much information as possible before reporting this to upstream and see if they can|want fix 2.0.28 to work with 2.6.25 kernels. Can you also try with the version of samba in experimental (for your laptop, of courseupgrading your etch server is out of question)? This is samba 3.2.0-pre2. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

reassign 480995 linux-2.6 found 480995 2.6.25-2 tags 480995 upstream thanks On Mon, May 12, 2008 at 08:03:40PM -0500, Tarek Soliman wrote: After upgrading to 2.6.25, I can no longer mount my etch samba server share using mount.cifs from my unstable laptop The following error is given mount error 20 = Not a directory Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs) Booting in 2.6.24 mounts it fine. Windows XP shares are not affected. Doing the following allows me to mount echo 0 /proc/fs/cifs/LinuxExtensionsEnabled This will be a kernel bug, not a bug in the smbfs userspace package. Reassigning to the correct package. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.

What did you upgrade to 2.6.25? The server, or the client? The laptop (client) was upgraded to 2.6.25 (it is running unstable) The etch server is running 2.6.18 (latest in etch/stable) Can you also try with the version of samba in experimental (for your laptop, of courseupgrading your etch server is out of question)? This is samba 3.2.0-pre2. I will try that tonight. I have another unstable box that is a bit behind (where i sent the original bug report from) and that works fine with the laptop. I cannot upgrade the etch server sorry. -- Tarek -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
