Public bug reported:

I mount my samba shares with the following command:

sudo mount -t cifs -o user=admin,password=very.long.password.with.dot
//server/sharename /pub/disk

On 12.10, the command works flawlessly and correctly mounts the share.
After I upgraded to 13.04, the command no longer worked and always
produced the following output:

mount error(13): Permission denied
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

Note that accessing the samba mount with krusader works correctly (I have to 
input the username/password of course).
I am no longer on Ubuntu 13.04 so I cannot provide exact versions of packages. 
But the error is reproducible on a fully updated Ubuntu 13.04 x86-32. My guess 
is that the error occurs because the password contains a dot character and the 
-o parameter gets parsed incorrectly. Or perhaps the password is too long (27 
characters).
Thank you
