Hi, I own a Canon MX 420 scanner which can scan to a memory card and then offer the scanned information via CIFS. Up to a few kernel versions ago (I think it worked with 3.6, but am not sure about that), things worked just fine and then stopped. The issue is the following: $ sudo mount.cifs '\\mx420-sch8.local\canon_memory' /media/scanner -o user=anonymous,nounix --verbose Password: <enter> mount.cifs kernel mount options: ip=192.168.218.36,unc=\\mx420-sch8.local\canon_memory,nounix,user=anonymous,pass=******** mount error(5): Input/output error Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) A pcap file of the network traffic caused by this command can be downloaded from http://q.bofh.de/~mh/stuff/tcpdump.mount.cifs. Otoh, smbclient '\\mx420-sch8.local\canon_memory' works. A pcap file of the network traffic caused by this command can be downloaded from http://q.bofh.de/~mh/stuff/tcpdump.smbclient. As somebody not knowing CIFS too well, I note that smbclients tries as anonymous, while the kernel tries to log in first and receives an error answer from the scanner. This behavior has changed at some point of the last six months. The kernel 3.7 found in grml's 2013.02 release works, at least the 3.8.5 currently running on my notebook doesn't. Any hints how do address this issue? Greetings Marc -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Marc Haber | "I don't trust Computers.
