I have been using cifs to access a USB memory stick attached to my router for the past few years, first with Ubuntu 18.04, then with 20.04.
Since updating to 22.04 this has stopped working and I don't know how to solve the problem.
Here's some information which I hope will help someone to help me:
Code:
$ grep cifs /etc/fstab
//192.168.1.1/volume(sda1)/ /media/n cifs user=mark,password=,uid=1000,gid=100,rw,user,auto,vers=1.0 0 0
$ dir /media/n
total 0
$ dir /media/
total 8.0K
drwxr-x---+ 3 root root 4.0K Aug 5 18:57 mark
drwxrwxrwx 2 mark users 4.0K Oct 21 2015 n
$ sudo dmesg|grep cifs
[sudo] password for mark:
[ 10.614599] FS-Cache: Netfs 'cifs' registered for caching
[ 10.617397] Key type cifs.spnego registered
[ 10.617414] Key type cifs.idmap registered
[ 10.617820] CIFS: VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -101
$ sudo mount /media/n
Retrying with upper case share name
mount error(6): No such device or address
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) and kernel log messages (dmesg)
I then installed smbclient and tried it:
Code:
smbclient -L //192.168.1.1/volume\(sda1\)/
protocol negotiation failed: NT_STATUS_CONNECTION_DISCONNECTED
So now I'm wondering if the problem is with samba rather than cifs?
I still have a computer using Ubuntu 20.04 which has exactly the same folder and fstab line and works fine.
