Possibly a clue: when mounting manually with mount -t cifs I need to add the nounix option:
mount -t cifs //host/share /mnt/tmp -o username=$user,password=$pass gives "mount ... failed: Operation not supported" When using mount -t cifs //host/share /mnt/tmp -o username=$user,password=$pass,nounix It works. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1711212 Title: smbclient fails to get shares from Mac OS X smb server To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1711212/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
