error Mounting Windows Share with fstab

giobaxx · 12-20-2017, 02:00 AM

I' m trying to mount permanently a Windows Share through the fstab and basically i have added this line to the file

Quote:

//192.168.0.100/backup$ /home/username/Share/winShare cifs credentials=/home/username/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm,uid=1000

0 0
Basically seem to work, i see the share and i can create folder or file, but during the boot i see this error;

[20.978283] CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -101

What could be wrong???

I wonder if fstab is puking on the dollar sign? What if you escape it:

Code:

//192.168.0.100/backup\$ /home/username/Share/winShare cifs credentials=/home/username/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm,uid=1000

Or quote it:

Code:

"//192.168.0.100/backup$" /home/username/Share/winShare cifs credentials=/home/username/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm,uid=1000
