Title: cifs mount suddenly no longer works
Post by: kalpana on Oct 19, 2023, 05:39 AM
hello

I have been using this command for years to connect to my old Lacie Cloudbox NAS:

Code:
sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.16/danny /media/cloudbox -o username=danny,password=xxx,vers=1.0
and today it suddenly stopped working:

Code:
mount.cifs kernel mount options: ip=192.168.1.16,unc=\\192.168.1.16\danny,vers=1.0,user=danny,pass=********
mount error(5): Input/output error
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) and kernel log messages (dmesg)

is it possible that a recent update in for example cifs-utils would have caused this?

Code:

cifs-utils is already the newest version (2:6.14-1ubuntu0.1).
if yes, is there a workaround, or would this be a recent bug?

I can access the storage device through the browser interface, and I can see that for instance Volumio can read from this NAS...

I have tried other mount options,
Code:
-o rw,
 -o sec=ntlm
 -o nounix,sec=ntlm
-o sec=ntlmssp

but none that I know of seem to solve this issue.

I can also see a very similar remark here:
