Get error(115) trying to mount a Windows filesystem from Ubuntu












2
















  • Ubuntu 14.04LTS server, I have no GUI desktop

  • In my example I'll use a fake IP address.

  • Trying to mount from Ubuntu to 1.2.3.4usersmesubdir. Someone has to put a spreadsheet file on the 1.2.3.4usersmesubdir and my program on Ubuntu has to read it.

  • I can ping 1.2.3.4 just fine, so it can't be a firewall issue, right?


I have read about 12 pages from my goole search, a few from this forum but I have nothing that works yet. This is what I did.



sudo mount -t cifs '\1.2.3.4/users/shared/chuck/subdir' /home/comp/mnt/subdir -o username=chuck,password=CR4gilson 
mount error(115): Operation now in progress
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)


This message is in /var/log/syslog:



Feb 15 09:43:56 ubuntucomp kernel: [7519048.289580] CIFS VFS: Error connecting to socket. Aborting operation.
Feb 15 09:43:56 ubuntucomp kernel: [7519048.289872] CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -115


In my ufw output samba seems to be allowed anywhere:



Samba                      ALLOW       Anywhere


Thank you!
