Hi,
Not sure if this is the place to ask, but:
We have user who uses mount -t cifs to mount his files on his machine.
Then this user changed his AD password. Then, suddenly his account
started to become LOCKED_OUT on the AD DCs, because of too many FAILED
with error NT_STATUS_WRONG_PASSWORD
After umounting the cifs mount, the FAILED with error
NT_STATUS_WRONG_PASSWORD disappeared, and the account no longer LOCKED_OUT.
So, it seems mount -t cifs keeps trying the password it remembers (even
though it became outdated aka previous) again and again, until the
account becomes LOCKED_OUT.
Is there a way to prevent this behaviour? I'd rather have the mount
point disappear/become invalid, rather then retried over and over again.
For the record: mount.cifs version 6.4 (debian jessie)
