This had should useful things about cifs.upcall (and an earlier one about debugging cifs.upcall problems e.g. with krb5 mounts returning errors) http://sprabhu.blogspot.com/2019/06/howto-cifs-kerberos-mount.html Shouldn't some of the cifs.upcall debugging info mentioned in an earlier blog post be also added to wiki.samba.org ? e.g. http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/LinuxCIFS_troubleshooting Any suggestions on how to debug cases where klist shows the principal but cifs.upcall can't find it - see log entry: get_tgt_time: unable to get principal -- Thanks, Steve
