Hello,

I tryed to usermount or automount krb5 authenticated CIFS shares but
could not succeed.

I have an fstab entry like :

//HOST/sharename$ /home/user/mountpoint cifs
rw,domain=DOMAIN.LOCAL,sec=krb5,ip=1.2.3.4,iocharset=utf8,uid=1000,gid=1000,user

man mount.cifs tells about a sec=krb5 option but dmesages show the sec
option is not known

===== man mount.cifs =====
       sec=   Security mode. Allowed values are:

              ·  none attempt to connection as a null user (no name)

              ·  krb5 Use Kerberos version 5 authentication
==========================

===== dmesg ==============
CIFS: Unknown mount option sec
==========================

I configured pam kerberos modules so I can authenticate against the
active directory. Login and kinit success boths so I successfully get a
krb5 ticket at lest that work to log on gdm, console and sudo.

Then I tryed mounting the Windows shares within gnome but could not
succeed in having it gaining access using the kherberos ticket obtained
while login or with kinit.

Any help appreciated.
