I did not find any piece of code in YaST or libzypp, that alters the
username/passwd you entered at the 'Authentication required for ...' prompt. In
the log I see a reasonable username and a non-empty password being written to
the credentials file and passed to mount. Nevertheless mount returns permission
denied.
I think we should try to check the credentials passed to mount:
- please proceed until yast pops up 'Authentication required for ...'.
- Enter 'workgroup/username' and 'password'.
- press continue.
I'd expect authentication to fail and the 'Authentication required for ...'
popup appears again.
- At this point change to VT2.
The temp file that was used to pass the credentians should not yet be deleted.
First we need to figure out it's location:
- 'grep /bin/mount /var/log/YaST2/y2log'
The last output line should contain the mount command we just issued.
...Executing '/bin/mount' '-t' 'cifs' '-o'
'credentials=/var/tmp/TmpFile.k7g6Fd,guest,ro' ...
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
your file will have a similar name
- 'cat /var/tmp/TmpFile.<YOURS>' or 'less /var/tmp/TmpFile.<YOURS>'
and check whether the content is actually right. It should be two lines:
username=workgroup/username
password=password
I hope you can figure out what happened to the password. You should be able to
repeat the command, maybe with a fixed credentials file.
