[Samba] Samba3 shares cannot be mounted on linux box uisng cifs command , error "CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -13"

Good Day All

I have a problem for our main fileserver base don samba 3.5.6

Let's give a bit of pregress first. We had a samba 3.5.6 installation which
was acting as a PDC for our internal domian called CCDC. On a sapearate
machine, we had another installation of samba 3.5.6 to act just as file
share server.

All was working ok, till I upgraded the PDC form samba 3.5.6 to samba
4.2.2 , using the classicupgrade.

Now I am able to access the shares from the windows boxes added to the CCDC
domain, but when I try to mount a cifs share form a linux box, then I get
the following error:


mount.cifs -o
username=mariopio,domain=CCDC  //seadog.mul.ie.ibm.com/scrap/4mario /media/
Password:
mount error(13): Permission denied
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

form dmesg I can see the following error:

CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -13


the smb.conf of the file server is the following:


root at seadog:/etc/samba# cat smb.conf
[global]

        write cache size = 131072

      vfs objects = full_audit

      # however will keep it here commented it out for future reference

      force directory mode = 740
      writeable            = Yes
      browseable           = Yes




note that on this fileserver nothing was touched during the classiupgrade,
a part the following parameters of the smb.conf


      realm = CCDC.LAN
      security = ads
      wins server = 9.161.96.220

      password server = 9.161.96.220



I have tried already different Linux machine with different distribution
and I always get the same error, I have also tried to add the parameter
"sec=ntlm or ntlmi " but hasn't changed much.

Note that for some historical reason, this file server has NOT a kerbero
workstation installation and was joined to the CCDC domain using net rpc
join instead of net ads join, could this be a problem?

any help is much appreciated!!!!


thanks

Do you mean you upgraded an NT4 PDC via 'samba-tool domain 
classicupgrade' to an AD DC ?

password server shouldn't be set, let samba find it itself.

It would seem the domain has been upgraded to AD and your fileserver may 
require joining to the new domain, but it is more likely to be something 
to do with the winbindd changes that came in with 4.2.0, see here:

[Samba] Samba3 shares cannot be mounted on linux box uisng cifs command , error "CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -13"

Thanks Rowland!

few answers to your question:

1) I  used the samba-tool domain classicupgrade to "migrate" the
domain for
the pdc to a new Ubuntu server with sernet-samba-4.2.2

2) on the DC, I have configured the service to use the old winbind, as
that's just enaugh for our domain and it looked more stable during the test
phasethe smb.conf of the DC is the following:

[global]
        workgroup = CCDC
        realm = CCDC.LAN
        netbios name = CCDC-SAMBA4-DC1
        server role = active directory domain controller
        idmap_ldb:use rfc2307 = yes

        server services = -winbindd +winbind
        dns forwarder = 9.0.138.50
        #server services = -winbindd +winbind
        idmap config CCDC:backend = ad
        idmap config CCDC:schema_mode = rfc2307
        idmap config CCDC:range = 10000-40000


        # Store UIDs/GIDs for all other domains (including local
        # accounts/groups of this server) in a tdb file
        idmap config *:backend = tdb
        idmap config *:range = 2000-9999

        # Use home directory and shell information from AD
        winbind nss info = rfc2307

        tls enabled  = yes
        tls keyfile  = tls/myKey.pem
        tls certfile = tls/myCert.pem
        tls cafile   
[netlogon]
        path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol/ccdc.lan/scripts
        read only = No

[sysvol]
        path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol
        read only = No

3) I will remove the password server as you suggested , thanks

4) the server is present in the domain, and getent group and getent passwd
works correctlly, however it was NOT joined with net ads join, but with net
rpc join, could this make the difference? as I am currentlly thinking of
removing the server from the domain, configure kerberos-workstation and try
the net ads join, what do you think?

again thanks for the help
