Ubuntu 14 mount.cifs with credentials did not work

  • 772

I can mount the Windows share drive in the following way:

mount.cifs //192.168.1.151/_wymiana /mnt/share_2 -o user=wega,password=1234

but I can not in this way: 

mount.cifs //192.168.1.151/_wymiana /mnt/share_2 -o credentials=/root/.smbcredential_2

cat .smbcredential_2
username=wega   
password=1234

Debugging with strace

strace -f -e trace=mount mount -t cifs //192.168.1.151/_wymiana /mnt/share_2 -o credentials=/root/.smbcredential_2
Process 3338 attached

Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

    Check and verify that you don't have any spaces or any other invisible characters after the username and password in your credential file.

    Having extra spaces would change the credentials.

    Your cat command shows several extra characters after the username entry.
