mount.cifs /myhost/MYSHARE /mnt/gatekeeper -o username=myself,servern=MYHOST,sec=lanman works for me in Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron", making e.g. OS/2 shares finally accessible again after all these years.
(As a welcome side effect of the improvements in Samba support, printing via SMB now works out of the box without any of the prior versions' hassles: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/60931) Unlike the share name (which will automatically be retried in uppercase by mount.cifs if not specified this way already), the server name now has to specified additionally in uppercase as servern=MYHOST in the above example; otherwise an ambiguous "mount error 2 = No such file or directory" will be reported. -- I/O error on access to SMB shares of OS/2 Warp 4 host mounted in Ubuntu 7.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112839 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
