[Samba] mount.cifs gives error 13 after changing servers -- hidden cache??

A sysadmin moved a share from one Windows server to another. I am now
getting error 13 when trying to mount the share from the new server.
The following worked before the server was replaced:
mount.cifs //ipaddress1/share1$ /mnt/share1 -o
credientials/home/whatever/.smbcredentials,rw
mount.cifs //ipaddress2/share2$ /mnt/share2 -o
credientials/home/whatever/.smbcredentials,ro
Change: server ipaddress2 was replaced with server ipaddress3 and share2$
was created on that server.
mount.cifs //ipaddress1/share1$ /mnt/share1 -o
credientials/home/whatever/.smbcredentials,rw
Still works!
mount.cifs //ipaddress3/share2$ /mnt/share2 -o
credientials/home/whatever/.smbcredentials,ro
FAILS with mount error(13): Permission denied
However, I can browse to //ipaddress3/share2$ using nautilus, and it is
also accessible from any Windows box on the network! This problem looks
similar to
lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2011-June/162704.html. Clearly, mount.cifs
seems to cache information somewhere. I have looked through /etc, /lib,
/var and /proc for any evidence that ipaddress2 was cached, but cannot find
anything. Any tips on how to solve this problem?
Thanks!
