As far as I can tell, mount.cifs will not work properly without keyutils for several scenarios: - 'cifsacl' option is used or - kerberos auth is used / spnego is used - when kernel level dns resolution is needed - so the cifs upcall for dns.resolver is required
All these cases where the cifs module needs to invoke helper functions require keyutils. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1772148 Title: Mount.cifs does not work without keyutils being installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cifs-utils/+bug/1772148/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
