[Samba] mounting as cifs not working in Debian, works in Windows though
I have a Debian machine running Unstable acting as a samba server. The server was installed a few days ago after a reinstall of the OS. The older installation's samba configs were backed up and restored after installation. The Samba shares are accessible if I access them from a Windows 7 client. The shares, however, cannot be accessed from a Debian client (newly installed amd64 Testing). The error I get from the Debian client is the following: ~$ sudo mount -v -t cifs -o user=<username> //sambaserver/Share ~/mnt/Share Password: .... <username's password here> .... mount.cifs kernel mount options: ip=192.168.0.8,unc=//sambaserver/Share,,ver=1,user=<username>,pass=******** mount error(13): Permission denied Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) I looked at the man page for mount.cifs and I have also tried the following with the same results: $ sudo mount -v -t cifs -o user=SMBWG/<username> //sambaserver/Share ~/mnt/Share (SMBWG is the workgroup) $ sudo mount -v -t cifs -o user=home.pvt/<username> //sambaserver/Share ~/mnt/Share What am I missing here?

Do you see any better errors in the logs of either client or server? Is client running SELinux or equivalent? Moray. "To err is human.? To purr, feline"

I can use smbclient and it appears to work: $ smbclient -L //192.168.0.8 -U hs Enter hs's password: Domain=[SMBWG] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.4.8] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- print$ Disk Printer Drivers Pictures Disk Pictures Repository IPC$ IPC IPC Service (red server) hs Disk Home Directories Domain=[SMBWG] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.4.8] Server Comment --------- ------- RED red server Workgroup Master --------- ------- SMBWG red No, there is no selinux running on samba server. The server's log also do not show anything abnormal. I get info regarding the smbclient stuff, but no info regarding the error 13 that cifs mounting is giving me.
