  Installed: 2:3.2.3-1ubuntu3
  Candidate: 2:3.2.3-1ubuntu3
Description:    Ubuntu 8.10
Release:        8.10

Expected results:
CIFS mounts keeps working after upgrade.

Results:
After upgrading from 8.04 to 8.10 (roughly one week ago, on the 23rd of Oct 08) using update-manager -d my CIFS mounts stopped working properly. I did not change any settings between them, and I have another machine on this network that is still running 8.04 and that doesn't have any problems.

They mount fine, and I can, with some effort, copy and read files from it (though I have to do it manually, as many programs will whine). As an example (here /mnt/diverse is my cifs mountpoint, mounted from a MyBook network drive):
[0 zerodogg at firefly ~]$ ls -l /mnt/diverse/test
ls: cannot access /mnt/diverse/test: No such file or directory
[2 zerodogg at firefly ~]$ touch /mnt/diverse/test
touch: setting times of `/mnt/diverse/test': Not a directory
[1 zerodogg at firefly ~]$ ls -l /mnt/diverse/test
-rwxr--r-- 1 zerodogg zerodogg 0 Oct 21 08:39 /mnt/diverse/test

[0 zerodogg at firefly ~]$ ls -l /mnt/diverse/test2
ls: cannot access /mnt/diverse/test2: No such file or directory
[2 zerodogg at firefly ~]$ touch test2
[0 zerodogg at firefly ~]$ mv test2 /mnt/diverse/
`test2' -> `/mnt/diverse/test2'
mv: preserving times for `/mnt/diverse/test2': Not a directory
mv: setting permissions for `/mnt/diverse/test2': Not a directory
removed `test2'
[0 zerodogg at firefly ~]$ chmod 644 /mnt/diverse/test2
chmod: changing permissions of `/mnt/diverse/test2': Not a directory
[0 zerodogg at firefly ~]$ rsync -avzh --progress --partial test3 /mnt/diverse/
sending incremental file list
test3
           0 100%    0.00kB/s    0:00:00 (xfer#1, to-check=0/1)
rsync: mkstemp "/mnt/diverse/.test3.mllG7b" failed: Not a directory (20)

sent 87 bytes  received 31 bytes  236.00 bytes/sec
total size is 0  speedup is 0.00
rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(1058) [sender=3.0.3]

The same commands, on the same mount on the 8.04 machine works perfectly
fine. It also worked fine on this (8.10) machine before the upgrade.

The relevant fstab entry (I have tried with and without dir_mode,file_mode,nounix):
//zdmybook/DIVERSE /mnt/diverse cifs username=USERNAME,password=PASSWORD,uid=1000,gid=1000,dir_mode=0750,file_mode=0640,noauto,user,exec 0 0
[0 zerodogg at firefly ~]$ mount |grep div
//zdmybook/DIVERSE on /mnt/diverse type cifs (rw,mand,nosuid,nodev)

The fstab entry on the 8.04 box:
//zdmybook/DIVERSE /mnt/Diverse smbfs username=USER,password=PASSWORd,uid=1000,gid=1001,noauto,user,noatime 0 0

And as an example, this time from the 8.04:
[0 lisbeth at lisbeth ~]$ touch /mnt/diverse/123
[0 lisbeth at lisbeth ~]$ ls -l /mnt/diverse/123
-rwxr--r-- 1 lisbeth zerodogg 0 2008-10-21 08:53 /mnt/diverse/123
[0 lisbeth at lisbeth ~]$ mount|\grep div
//zdmybook/DIVERSE on /mnt/diverse type cifs (rw,mand,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
