Package: cifs-utils Version: 2:6.4-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Mounting a Windows DFS (Distributed File System) fails with "mount error(115): Operation now in progress" sudo mount -t cifs //internal.compu-share.com/data/ /mnt/data -o noserverino,\user=jcrossley,pass=$PASSWORD,domain=compu-share,sec=ntlm mount error(115): Operation now in progress Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) Using the actual name of the file server instead of the DFS name works. In this example, the DNS entry for internal.compu-share.com points to three Windows Servers, which have referrals to the actual server. The server is a NetApp. It appears as though the client is not following the referral. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.2.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages cifs-utils depends on: ii libc6 2.19-22 ii libcap-ng0 0.7.7-1 ii libkeyutils1 1.5.9-7 ii libkrb5-3 1.13.2+dfsg-2 ii libtalloc2 2.1.3-1 ii libwbclient0 2:4.1.17+dfsg-4 ii samba-common 2:4.1.17+dfsg-4 Versions of packages cifs-utils recommends: ii keyutils 1.5.9-7 ii winbind 2:4.1.17+dfsg-4 Versions of packages cifs-utils suggests: ii smbclient 2:4.1.17+dfsg-4 -- no debconf information
