Hi, Is anyone here using smb:// URLs to access "Windows" shares? I've been doing this for a while with common file systems at work, and it used to work just fine. Then I while back, I started getting issues; I will now just keep getting asked for a password when I try to access something through smb://. I thought at first that this meant there had been some kind of change related to permissions on the shares, but now I find that I can mount them just fine using "mount -t cifs". In other words, I get: gvfs-mount smb://mydomain\;toralf.lund@theserver/myshare Password required for share myshare on theserver Password: Password required for share myshare on theserver Password: Password required for share myshare on theserver Password: [ I enter the correct password, but gvs-mount keeps asking... Behaviour is the same if I try to open the URL in the file manager instead. ] mount -t cifs -o user=toralf.lund,workgroup=mydomain //theserver/myshare /tmp_mnt/ Password: [ At this stage the filesystem is mounted, as long as I enter the correct password. ] Does anyone have any idea what is going on here? Why does the VFS mount fail when mount.cifs works on the same share? Is there a difference in the way authentication works, or something? Has there been a change to the smb support that might explain this? This is on a CentOS 6 x86_64 installation with all updates applied. - Toralf
