You have been subscribed to a public bug: I'm running the Jaunty kde3.5 remix (Ubuntu 9.04). I have several related problems with automount of a cifs share, shown by the following transcript:
p...@lepiota:~$ mount /mediavault mount error: permission denied or not superuser and mount.cifs not installed SUID p...@lepiota:~$ cat /etc/fstab | grep mediavault //hpmediavault/FileShare /mediavault cifs users,auto,rw,nodev,noexec,_netdev,guest 0 0 p...@lepiota:~$ ls -l $(which mount.cifs) -rwsr-sr-x 1 root root 30704 2009-03-27 12:20 /sbin/mount.cifs 1. The /mediavault share is not mounted on boot, even though _netdev is supposed to solve the problem of delayed mounting not taking place. 2. Despite the presence of "users" in the /etc/fstab entry, an ordinary user cannot mount this share. This happens even though mount.cifs is installed SUID. I also note that the same /etc/fstab entry works properly in OpenSuSE 11.1. ** Affects: samba (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- _netdev not working; other mount.cifs problems https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/380938 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
