Description of problem: mount.cifs asks for a password, even when there is a fstab entry which points to a credentials file with username and password. Additionally: The mount even fails, even when the right password is entered at the prompt. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): cifs-utils-4.5-1.fc13.x86_64 Worked just fine after downgrading to cifs-utils-4.4-3.fc13.x86_64 again How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: * create a credentials file with something like this: echo "username=foo"$'\n'"password=bar" > /home/foo/foobar * create a fstab entry like this: echo "//server/share /mnt/share cifs user,noauto,exec,cred=/home/foo/foobar" * run mount /mnt/share Additional info: I'm running a 2.6.34 kernel on both machines that are affected. Might be part of the problem, but I don't think so
