Hello, I have a Samba share on a host server that when mounting via smbfs the users on the client machine can read and write to the dir's in the mount, however when mounting it via cifs everyone gets permission denied errors. The Samba host server has the same usernames & passwords as the client machine. Examples in /etc/fstab below; <snip> //sambahost/ftp /mnt/ftp cifs credentials=/etc/cifsusers/user1,domain=sales,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,r w 0 0 *****premission denied errors with cifs***** //sambahost/ftp /mnt/ftp smbfs workgroup=sales,username=user1,password=aword,fmask=777,dmask=777 0 0 *****everything works with smbfs***** <snip> I would prefer to use cifs and utilize the credentials files. When connecting via cifs, the user in the credentials file also gets the permission denied error. How can I get cifs mounts to work with a Samba share? Thank you in advance.
