What sort of server are you mounting here? It looks like it's using share-level security, so it's either very old or is a samba server configured that way. I suspect that commit c1508ca236 is the culprit. With that, we call into expand_dfs_referral on every mount attempt. Previously we only called into there when we got back an EREMOTE error and that would have been unlikely on a share-level security connection. I think there are several possible solutions, but since Sean was in here most recently I'd like to have his opinion. -- Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-cifs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
