Description Elmar Stellnberger 2006-11-04 17:02:49 UTC

fstab mount points using the "noauto" or the "user" options simply do not work.
I simply could not believe that.
When writing auto instead of noauto everything works.

fstab entry:
... ...   smbfs      gid=users,fmask=0664,dmask=0775,iocharset=iso8859-15,guest,noauto,user      0 0

/var/log/messages:

The noauto smbfs fstab option works fine in Debian Etch, Ubuntu 6.10 and Mandriva 2007. CIFS is not yet mature enough to replace SMBFS.

Comment 5 Felix Miata 2006-12-10 04:55:15 UTC

Even before smbfs was dropped from SUSE, noauto produced mount failure as described in bug 118635. This failure dates back to at least v8.2.
