[Bug 112839] Solved in Ubuntu 8.04: I/O error on access to SMB shares of OS/2 Warp 4 host mounted in Ubuntu

[TEN]

mount.cifs /myhost/MYSHARE /mnt/gatekeeper -o username=myself,servern=MYHOST,sec=lanman
works for me in Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron", making e.g. OS/2 shares finally accessible again after all these years.

(As a welcome side effect of the improvements in Samba support, printing
via SMB now works out of the box without any of the prior versions'
hassles: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/60931)

Unlike the share name (which will automatically be retried in uppercase
by mount.cifs if not specified this way already), the server name now
has to specified additionally in uppercase as servern=MYHOST in the
above example; otherwise an ambiguous "mount error 2 = No such file or
directory" will be reported.
