Jonathan Davies, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu server? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> If reproducible, could you also please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc6 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: needs-bisect regression-release ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete ** Tags added: needs-kernel-logs ** Tags added: bot-stop-nagging -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1036647 Title: mount.cifs fails on mount DFS linked share Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: mount.cifs fails to mount a DFS linked share on 12.04, this behaviour worked fine on 10.04. The DFS structure is: \\SERVER1\TEST\SHARE-LINK which goes to \\SERVER2\LINKED-SHARE . Mounting running: $ sudo mount -t cifs //server1/TEST/SHARE-LINK /mnt/dfs-mount -o user=Administrator ..fails on a precise machine, while it works on lucid. My tests show that: 10.04 | mount.cifs works on oneiric and precise kernels. 12.04 | Stock kernel fails with both precise's mount.cifs and with lucid's mount.cifs compiled.
