Re: [Bug 1896699] Re: Mounting a share in fstab fails with BAD_NETWORK_NAME
What happens is that nothing changes. the share that won't mount with "mount -a" does not mount during thhe boot.

[Bug 1896699] Re: Mounting a share in fstab fails with BAD_NETWORK_NAME
What is missing from your description is what happens after your system has finished rebooting. Does the share mount when you issue one of the following commands: sudo mount -a Or: sudo mount /mnt/server_e Both of those commands will reference the fstab declaration. If it does this may not be a "bug" in cifs itself but in the boot process where the line in fstab is being executed before the network stack is operational on the client so it cannot connect to any remote share - until after the entire boot process is complete. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1896699 Title: Mounting a share in fstab fails with BAD_NETWORK_NAME To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cifs-utils/+bug/1896699/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Have you checked your fstab file for extraneous characters, bad line-ending, that kind of stuff? Try "cat -vet /etc/fstab" as that will show control characters. You also have quite different options in the fstab line versus your shown command line, but I suspect you tested many combinations already and just pasted one of the iterations. Also, try to start with a simpler fstab line. For example: //192.168.1.200/Drive_E /mnt/server_e cifs 0 0 And go from there if it works. Regarding the documentation, the cifs mount options are listed in the mount.cifs manpage Some people have also been getting hard to debug cifs errors and fixed them by installing keyutils. I can't say that's the case here, as the command line works and I don't see evidence of kerberos authentication, but you might try that. ** Package changed: samba (Ubuntu) => cifs-utils (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: cifs-utils (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1896699 Title: Mounting a share in fstab fails with BAD_NETWORK_NAME To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cifs-utils/+bug/1896699/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 1896699] Re: Mounting a share in fstab fails with BAD_NETWORK_NAME
Hi Chris, That’s nice but I’ve crawled all over the support sites and the web. Many have reported and discussed this and related problems mounting shares in 20.04 but no one has either explained the cause of the problem or offered a definitive solution. Based on the existence of the problem and the lack of any documentation or solution leads me to conclude that this is in fact a bug and not a support issue. This reminds me of a problem that I had with a Mac that spontaneously crashed and restarted with an error code that Apple never documented and which none of the “support” staff had been “trained” on. When mount works from the command-line but not from fstab (with correct syntax) the only possible explanation is that it is a bug. The BAD_NETWORK_NAME can’t really be bad if it works in the mount command. btw - smb4k also has no problem mounting this share, but it is not persistent between reboots.
