[Bug 563805] Re: mount.cifs won't mount shares; set uid bit not set

[Adrien Chauve]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: samba
  
  In 9.10 this worked fine:
  
  dutchy at vampire:~$ mount.cifs //dragon/dutchy ~/dragon/
  Password:
  
  In 10.04, i get:
  
  dutchy at vampire:~$ mount.cifs //dragon/dutchy dragon/
- Password: 
+ Password:
  mount error(1): Operation not permitted
  Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)
  
  Setting the set uid bit fixed the problem:
- dutchy at vampire:~$ sudo chmod +s /sbin/umount.cifs
+ dutchy at vampire:~$ sudo chmod +s /sbin/mount.cifs
  
  I am quite sure I didn't change this, so somewhere in the upgrade
  process 9.10 -> 10.04 something went wrong.
