Thanks for the comments Thomas. I completely removed network manager but still got CIFS error messages (same as Mappy above), so this may not be the workaround for everyone. I did remove NM though rather than disabling it as you suggest.
However removing NM was a no-go for me as it prevented me connecting to our server via VPN. We're using the VPN Connection Manager (PPC generic) which is a PPTP plugin for NM according to the blurb. So this path is probably not for me - unless someone knows of an alternative way to connect to VPN? The reason I removed NM initially was to try Wikd - but they do not have VPN support yet. -- system hangs at shutdown https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/138691 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
