Working fstab line from Wheezy:- //vbserver/references /home/scott/References cifs ro,_netdev,credentials=/root/.cifs,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 "ro" shouldn't affect you "_netdev" stops boot from failing if the network resource is not available (probably cause of your problem *if* the network resource exists *and* UID and GID are correct). check "uid" and "gid" against your user consider removing the "auto" (possible cause of your problem) consider replacing a system-wide readable password with one that's readable by root only (won't cause your problem, prevents others). > > Everything seems fine ... until something happens.

To see what has been mounted:- $ mount To try and mount everything in /etc/fstab:- # mount -a The output from the last command will be instructive.
