In the past week or so, an update to my Tumbleweed has resulted in me no longer being able to mount CIFS columns from a Windows server (a company server, not my own).

I now get this in the system log:

[ 2203.773170] FS-Cache: Netfs 'cifs' registered for caching [ 2203.783492] Key type cifs.spnego registered [ 2203.783495] Key type cifs.idmap registered [ 2203.784007] CIFS: Attempting to mount //serammmarst01-a.XXX.ramboll-group.global.network/data2 [ 2214.047746] CIFS VFS: Error connecting to socket. Aborting operation. [ 2214.047774] CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -2

No idea why. I do not think that the server has changed. And if it has, some IT guy in some cupboard is the only one who knows and he's not telling. So I am starting with the assumption that something has changed in Tumbleweed.

I have tried with ver=1 and var=3. The command is:

I use ver=3.1.1

mount -t cifs //serammmarst01-a.XXX.ramboll-group.global.network/data6 /media/mma-sql-1/data6 -o soft,vers=3.0,credentials=/etc/cifs.creds.ramse,workgroup=RAMBOLL,rw,noauto,uid=roger

This also fails when systemd automount tries to mount it. But if the mount command does not work.

The /etc/cifs.creds.ramse file is correct and unchanged from when it worked. It makes no difference if I put the items in that file on the command line. The error is the same.

I have tried ver= 1.0, 3, 3,0, 3,1,1 and default. No difference.

I tried adding -vvv to the mount command to get more debugging. But that did not work.

I utilize a cifs mount to a local win10 box and only see permissions difficulties on the win10 side, and have not noticed any changes recently. fwiw, sshfs provides better access and maintaining connection. I have encountered difficulties when the cifs version requirement changes and I fail to see any notice of the change(s). <note line wrapping> mount |grep cifs //192.168.1.100/C-Share/ on /home/paka/cifs type cifs (rw,relatime,vers=3.1.1,sec=ntlmssp,cache=strict,username=Carolyn,uid=1000,forceuid,gid=100,forcegid,addr=192.168.1.100,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,soft,nounix,mapposix,rsize=4194304,wsize=4194304,bsize=1048576,echo_interval=60,actimeo=1,_netdev) grep cifs /etc/fstab //192.168.1.100/C-Share/ /home/paka/cifs cifs credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,guest,nofail,_netdev,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlmssp,uid=1000,gid=100,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,noserverino 0 0 -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
