Can't mount SMB/CIFS Share from the UI (solved)

OK, after a load of Google-fu and comparing mount options between a command line CIFS mount and a Rune UI mount to a different server from my file server it turned out that I had to add an Advanced option, mount flags: domain=

I'm guessing that it's because my new file server is running a Samba Domain Controller.

OK, it's the "sec=ntlm" parameter that causes this.

If I enter the exact command as Rune in the command line, I get the "Permission denied" error. If I drop the "sec=ntlm" parameter, or change it to "sec=ntlmssp", then the mount is successful.

I tried to add "sec=ntlmssp" to the Advanced options, but that just causes both versions to be presented on the command line, which still fails.

Side note: When selecting Advanced options, the Mount flags box is pre-filled with "cache=none,ro", but typing anything removes those, not adds to them.

Cheers.

Hi,

please try the "OS x share" it adds "nounix,sec=ntlmssp" to the options.

Frank,

Yep, using that suggestion allows the mount from the UI. Thanks.

Cheers.
