[Bug 1544546] Re: after upgrade to 16.04 network drive not working; had to manually install cifs-util to get the drive to work

[Serge Stroobandt]

The following worked for me:

Add to each affected /etc/fsab line:

comment=systemd.automount

So, for example:
//192.168.1.100/shared /media/shared cifs 
comment=systemd.automount,credentials=…

Brian,

I am sorry: after experiencing this mounting problem I experienced many
other problems as well. Therefore I decided to do a clean install, which is
running as I type this.
I realise now that this is not helpful for this particular issue.
In short: I can't provide the log files as requested.
Sorry.
