Public bug reported: I have, and had, the following lines in fstab in 7.10, 8.04 beta, and 8.04 GA:
readyNAS1:/backup /mnt/backup nfs defaults 0 0 readyNAS1:/media /mnt/media nfs defaults 0 0 readyNAS1:/tbird_profile /mnt/email nfs defaults 0 0 readyNAS1:/VirtualMachines /mnt/vm nfs defaults 0 0 In fact, my other system, 7.10, also has these lines and mounts these points just fine. At startup these mounts fail silently. When I issue a sudo mount -a I receive the following: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo mount -a mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on readyNAS1:/backup, missing codepage or helper program, or other error (for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program) In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on readyNAS1:/media, missing codepage or helper program, or other error (for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program) In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on readyNAS1:/tbird_profile, missing codepage or helper program, or other error (for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program) In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on readyNAS1:/VirtualMachines, missing codepage or helper program, or other error (for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program) In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so Again, my other system can mount these points just fine with the identical fstab (for these points). In auth.log I see the following: Apr 28 20:38:42 cor720 sudo: walt : TTY=pts/3 ; PWD=/home/walt ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/bin/mount readyNAS1:/backup /mnt/backup Apr 28 20:38:42 cor720 sudo: pam_unix(sudo:session): session opened for user root by walt(uid=0) Apr 28 20:38:42 cor720 sudo: pam_unix(sudo:session): session closed for user root Apr 28 20:38:51 cor720 sudo: walt : TTY=pts/3 ; PWD=/home/walt ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/bin/mount readyNAS1:/backup /mnt/backup nfs Apr 28 20:38:51 cor720 sudo: pam_unix(sudo:session): session opened for user root by walt(uid=0) Apr 28 20:38:51 cor720 sudo: pam_unix(sudo:session): session closed for user root Apr 28 20:39:19 cor720 sudo: walt : TTY=pts/3 ; PWD=/home/walt ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/bin/mount -t nfs readyNAS1:/backup /mnt/backup Apr 28 20:39:19 cor720 sudo: pam_unix(sudo:session): session opened for user root by walt(uid=0) Apr 28 20:39:19 cor720 sudo: pam_unix(sudo:session): session closed for user root Apr 28 20:45:00 cor720 sudo: walt : TTY=pts/3 ; PWD=/home/walt ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/bin/vim /etc/fstab Apr 28 20:45:00 cor720 sudo: pam_unix(sudo:session): session opened for user root by walt(uid=0) Apr 28 20:45:00 cor720 sudo: pam_unix(sudo:session): session closed for user root I had, previously, seen the exact output as 218110 : PAM unable to dlopen(/lib/security/pam_smbpass.so) : PAM [error: /lib/security/pam_smbpass.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory] : PAM adding faulty module: /lib/security/pam_smbpass.so Once I installed libpam_smbpass those errors did not recur in auth.log but the mount commands still fail.
