CIFS mount problems

[Darkguy]

Hey,

I'm currently using Beta2 with the 3.10.12 Kernel and have a problem mounting CIFS shares from a Windows 7 machine on my network from the shell. The same mount works fine from within XBMC.

Terminal

sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.0.1/MyShare /media/myshare -o username=MyUser,password=MyPass

results in:

Terminal

Unable to find suitable address.

I did create /media/MyShare before; also, once the command fails, the /media/MyShare folder also is gone and has to be re-created.

I also tried adding ,sec=ntlm to the -o parameter, since I read on the RaspBMC forums that there was an issue with NTLMv2 and the 3.10 Kernel.

Also, /var/log/samba/log.smbd features these lines:

Code:

[2013/10/28 23:07:43,  0] smbd/server.c:1053(main)
  smbd version 3.6.6 started.

  failed to retrieve printer list: NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL

I've read that "Unable to find suitable address." actually might be a problem with the Samba server, not the client and might have to do with CUPS not able to start, so maybe these messages and being unable to mount CIFS shares might be related?

Also on a side note, I used vpnc to connect to a Cisco VPN and mounted a share on the remote network using the same command, and it worked like a charm - so maybe the problem involves mounting shares on Windows 7 and some sort of NTLM security/handshake issue?

Would be great if somebody solved this and knows of a solution!
