Hi, We have several CIFS drives specified in our /etc/fstab Until Debian 11 (with isc-dhcp-client), they got automatically mounted all right after boot. No longer in Debian 12 (with dhcpcd-base) Even adding _netdev to the drives' options in /etc/fstab didn't help. Some investigation showed that /etc/network/if-up.d/mountnfs (part of initscripts: this is the script responsible for mounting network drives when new connections are brought up) sources /lib/lsb/init-functions, which itself sources parts in /lib/lsb/init-functions.d /lib/lsb/init-functions.d/40-systemd (part of systemd package) checks whether mountnfs.service is "masked", and if so, exits before mounting any drives. => which means that networked drives other than NFS are not mounted! Manually "unmasking" mountnfs.service fixes the issue, however I have a feeling that on a future Debian upgrade, mountnfs.service might get masked again.
