I tried to mount up a share with sec=none as the options. With that, I got this error: CIFS: Unknown mount option pass= The problem is that the mount.cifs helper will pass a blank "pass=" option to the kernel. It seems like the standard option parser doesn't have a way to allow you to specify an optional argument. That may need to be added in order for this to work. -- 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
