The command is easy enough, so tell my why it works on every other distro i’ve played with, but not Fedora 8.
root@localhost Desktop# mount -t cifs //10.10.10.250/files /mnt -o user=paul,password=xxxxxx
The error i get is :
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //10.10.10.250/files, missing codepage or helper program, or other error. In some cases useful info is found in syslog – try dmesg | tail or so
And the dmesg report is :
CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -22
Well that’s all very clear….not.
Right off to Buzill
** UPDATE**
Submitted my first bug report to bugzilla, i hope i got it right and don’t get to many “it’s actually fixes in big xxxx” or “RTFM”
Bug 428658
** UPDATE **
Well even though it’s not obvious, it appears you need samba-client installed, don’t i feel stupid :s Apologies for the Jeff, who’s time i wasted with this one.
