I spent the last two days trying to mount a windows share, and it turns
out it was not a problem with:
* share permissions
* filesystem permissions
* incorrect password
* firewalls
* antivirus software
* smb version
But was in fact an issue with the username. The username I had was 23
characters, which is longer than the "pre-Windows 2000" logon name which
is what cifs was using, even with smb vers=3.0. The error was always
status code 0xc000006d STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE which this time was actually
an authentication problem since the client was using the wrong username.
Is there any plan to support windows usernames in samba/cifs that are
*post* windows 2000 era?
# mount.cifs -V
mount.cifs version: 6.9
