The error message is just based on the errno (13), so it's hard for
mount.cifs to modify that. We should update the manpage to mention
sec=lanman though.

Title:
mount.cifs on 13.04 fails to mount a samba share with 13: Permission
Denied
Status in “cifs-utils” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
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
