I've successfully mounted a network share with mount.cifs for the past 2 years using fstab with credfile. credfile:
Yesterday I moved this system to a new datacenter, but did not alter fstab or the credfile. The //server/share directory has IP rules in place, but this was updated with the new system IP while we moved the system.
Now, I am mysteriously unable to automount //server/share. The local error is 13 (permission denied). The Windows server we are mounting returned a code that is defined as "username is valid but password is incorrect"
Again - no changes (content or permissions) were made to my credfile or fstab entry. I've restarted netfs a few times, including rebooting the system twice.
What is baffling is I can successfully mount //server/share via command line:
The username and passwords are identical in credfile and the mount options - I copied & pasted username / password from the credfile itself.
I'm at a loss. Help?
//server/share /mnt/my
Code:
username=foobar password=1234 (ends here no line return after '4')
