Hi all. Running sid, 2.6.22-2-686 #1 SMP, i686, updated daily.
The following worked for me last week as part of my anacron-launched backup: [/etc/fstab] //Iomega-XXXXXX/NetHDD /mnt/storage smbfs noauto,password="" 0 0 This morning, it failed. When I try to mount /mnt/storage, I get a bizarre failure where samba is trying to connect to 66.150.2.134, which is vznassist.infospace.com. If I specify the IP address (192.168.1.101, via DHCP), it works. If I try to use smbclient, or mount.smbfs, directly, I get similar behavior, though not the same IP address. I haven't seen anything in the strace from mount that seems to be of any help: readlink("/Iomega-XXXXXX", 0xbfe1b8fb, 4096) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat64("/sbin/mount.smbfs", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0755, st_size=884820, ...}) = 0 clone(child_stack=0, flags=CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID|CLONE_CHILD_SETTID|SIGCHLD, child_tidptr=0xb7d4e6f8) = 29709 wait4(-1, Error connecting to 63.251.179.13 (Connection refused) 29709: Connection to Iomega-XXXXXX failed SMB connection failed Also, # strace mount.smbfs //Iomega-00E2C5/NetHDD /mnt/storage [snip] stat64("/var/run/samba", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 open("/var/run/samba/gencache.tdb", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_LARGEFILE, 0644) = 3 fcntl64(3, F_SETLKW64, {type=F_WRLCK, whence=SEEK_SET, start=0, len=1}, 0xbfc41404) = 0 read(3, "TDB file\n\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 168) = 168 fstat64(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, 3, 0) = 0xb7f50000 fcntl64(3, F_SETLKW64, {type=F_UNLCK, whence=SEEK_SET, start=0, len=1}, 0xbfc41404) = 0 fcntl64(3, F_SETLKW64, {type=F_RDLCK, whence=SEEK_SET, start=468, len=1}, 0xbfc41424) = 0 fcntl64(3, F_SETLKW64, {type=F_UNLCK, whence=SEEK_SET, start=468, len=1}, 0xbfc41424) = 0 fcntl64(3, F_SETLKW64, {type=F_RDLCK, whence=SEEK_SET, start=504, len=1}, 0xbfc40ac4) = 0 fcntl64(3, F_SETLKW64, {type=F_UNLCK, whence=SEEK_SET, start=504, len=1}, 0xbfc40ae4) = 0 time(NULL) = 1192381887 futex(0xb7dcea5c, FUTEX_WAKE, 2147483647) = 0 socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_IP) = 4 fcntl64(4, F_GETFL) = 0x2 (flags O_RDWR) fcntl64(4, F_SETFL, O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK) = 0 connect(4, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(445), sin_addr=inet_addr("63.251.179.13")}, 16) = -1 EINPROGRESS (Operation now in progress) Any ideas? -- Michael A.
