Discovered something interesting testing cifs. When you mount cifs with "user=your-username" instead of "username=your-username" you can confuse mount about whether to allow executing files on the mount, at least mount from util-linux 2.21.2 (libmount 2.21.0: selinux, debug) Basically if you mount with "user=" this version of mount assumes it is a non-root initiated mount and turns off exec (also sets nosuid and nodev). To workaround this if executing a program fails on a cifs mount, you can mount specifying "username=" instead of "user=" or you can simply append "exec" to the mount options. -- Thanks, Steve -- 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
