OK here is a fstab from one of my PCs running 17.10 and it tries to mount shares from two different computers:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a # device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices # that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5). # # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> # / was on /dev/sdb1 during installation UUID=0887068e-fc83-4a98-a90f-ccbfdecd8728 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1 # /home was on /dev/sdc1 during installation UUID=b6c98b89-941b-4e36-b91b-f011633ae70d /home ext4 defaults 0 2 /swapfile none swap sw 0 0 //192.168.1.173/media /mnt/share/mediapc/media cifs credentials=/home/patrick/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm 0 0 //192.168.1.116/maps /mnt/share/mainpc/maps cifs credentials=/home/patrick/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm 0 0 so mediapc is acting as a Samba server running 16.04 and this one mounts just fine, mainpc is acting as a Samba server running 17.10 and it always fails with error 13 permission denied. Both servers have exactly the same credentials needed so they use the same credentials file to provide those credentials to mount.cifs through the mount command. So it fails regardless of whether I let it do it at startup or if I type sudo mount -a to mount at any time of my choosing. I have yet to try out any of the other things we have tried with this computer so that will be my next step and based on so far it will probably succeed.

I set it up the same way with Samba as I did with the old 16.04 installation, but all the other computers on the network that are running Xubuntu can't connect to it like they did before. The following are the user experiences of different computers in my network connecting to shared SMB resources on other computers: 16.04 client mount.cifs to 16.04 server: full access 16.04 client path run/user/1000/gvfs to 16.04 server: full access 17.10 client mount.cifs to 16.04 server: full access 16.04 client mount.cifs to 17.10 server: access denied error - 17.10 client mount.cifs to 16.04 server: access denied error + 17.10 client mount.cifs to 17.10 server: access denied error 16.04 client path run/user/1000/gvfs to 17.10 server: read only access Windows 10 client explorer map drive to 17.10 server: full access the server used to run 16.04 and is now running 17.10. It is the same computer and has the same network resources shared on it that it had when it was running 16.04. The server installation of 17.10 was a clean install but the home folder was existing on a different volume and was remounted after the install. As you can see a Windows 10 computer is the only computer in the network that can connect to the Samba share with full access and no apparent difference in the user experience.
