You have been subscribed to a public bug: I am trying to mount a Windows server 2003 share using a command like this in our enterprise network:
mount.cifs //winserver/someshare/somedirectory /mymount -o user=myuser,dom=ourdomain However I get the following error code on the command line: mount error(11): Resource temporarily unavailable In the syslog I see Dec 7 12:34:20 pc1471 kernel: [ 5442.667417] CIFS VFS: dns_resolve_server_name_to_ip: unable to resolve: server323 Dec 7 12:34:20 pc1471 kernel: [ 5442.667423] CIFS VFS: cifs_compose_mount_options: Failed to resolve server part of \\server323\fsfds to IP: -11 Dec 7 12:34:20 pc1471 kernel: [ 5442.667831] CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -11 Browsing the share with smbclient works fine, mounting via gnome desktop does not work either. After doing a apt-get install keyutils the mount command works ok (now cifs.upcall is used for DNS resolving). So one solution would be to add a dependency for keyutils to the cifs packages. ** Affects: samba (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: kernel-series-unknown -- Cifs mount fails when DFS referrals are used by server, keyutils needed https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/493565 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
