[linux-cifs-client] Cannot mount NetApp filer with plain text password

[Rasmus Ory Nielsen]

Hi,

I am trying to mount a share on a NetApp filer. This is the command I
use:

# mount -t cifs //ipaddress/share /mnt/share/ -o user=username
Password:
mount error 5 = Input/output error
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)


And in /var/log/messages the following appears:

Oct 23 09:42:12 fc5 kernel:  CIFS VFS: Server requests plain text password but client support disabled
Oct 23 09:42:12 fc5 kernel:  CIFS VFS: Send error in SessSetup = -5
Oct 23 09:42:13 fc5 kernel:  CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -5


The same share worked for me when smbfs was available in Fedora Core
(fc4). Shares on other servers works fine with cifs.


Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks in advance.


Best regards,
Rasmus Ory Nielsen
