I doubt that that problem was related to the problem with write which was originally reported. Since cifs has very few dependencies on userspace (the upcall for Kerberos ie sec=krb5, and the upcall for dfs hostname resolution), it is not obvious why automount should differ from mount after boot, unless there is a problem getting to /sbin/mount.cifs -- Thanks, Steve -- Access to samba 3.0.24-3.0.25 shares using CIFS is broken on 8.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/286828 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
