Hi,
Is anyone here using smb:// URLs to access "Windows" shares? I've been
doing this for a while with common file systems at work, and it used to
work just fine. Then I while back, I started getting issues; I will now
just keep getting asked for a password when I try to access something
through smb://. I thought at first that this meant there had been some
kind of change related to permissions on the shares, but now I find that
I can mount them just fine using "mount -t cifs".
In other words, I get:
gvfs-mount smb://mydomain\;toralf.lund@theserver/myshare
Password required for share myshare on theserver
Password:
Password required for share myshare on theserver
Password:
Password required for share myshare on theserver
Password:
[ I enter the correct password, but gvs-mount keeps asking... Behaviour
is the same if I try to open the URL in the file manager instead. ]
mount -t cifs -o user=toralf.lund,workgroup=mydomain //theserver/myshare
/tmp_mnt/
Password:
[ At this stage the filesystem is mounted, as long as I enter the
correct password. ]
Does anyone have any idea what is going on here? Why does the VFS mount
fail when mount.cifs works on the same share? Is there a difference in
the way authentication works, or something? Has there been a change to
the smb support that might explain this?
This is on a CentOS 6 x86_64 installation with all updates applied.
