Supporting smb2.1 or smb3 protocols for mount.cifs

[Владимир Титаренко]

Supporting of smb1 have been disabled on my windows hosts for security reasons. And now there are no ability to mount share from windows hosts on my orange pi pc. 

Can developers add this feature to armbian system in nearest updates?

root@orangepipc:/media# mount -t cifs //192.168.1.5/D /media/share_test/ --verbose -o vers=2.1,user=user,pass=verystrongpassword
mount.cifs kernel mount options: ip=192.168.1.5,unc=\\192.168.1.5\D,vers=2.1,user=user,pass=********
mount error(22): Invalid argument
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

Did you tried with "smbclient" to see if you still have issues ?

Isn't the space after the "/D" been the issue ?

Looks like "//192.168.1.5/D" is the remote path (source) and "/media/share_test/" is the local path (mount point) so I don't see an issue here.

Yes, I've figured out and re-edit my post while you've been replying ...

It's not something that can be added or fixed.

The "default" branch uses kernel 3.4 which doesn't support new SMB/SIFS protocol versions: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/LinuxCIFSKernel

Now I have this:

root@orangepipc:/home/tva94# samba --version
Version 4.3.11-Ubuntu
root@orangepipc:/home/tva94# mount.cifs --version
mount.cifs version: 6.4
root@orangepipc:/home/tva94# uname -a
Linux orangepipc 3.4.113-sun8i #4 SMP PREEMPT Wed Nov 22 13:45:28 CET 2017 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux

So I can't use new protocols with easy way

I found one simple way, that helps me

I use armbian-config utiility, System -> Switch -> next

root@orangepipc:/media# uname -a
Linux orangepipc 4.13.16-sunxi #20 SMP Fri Nov 24 19:50:07 CET 2017 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux
root@orangepipc:/media# mount -t cifs //192.168.1.5/D /media/share_test/ --verbose -o user=user,pass=verystrongpassword,vers=2.1
mount.cifs kernel mount options: ip=192.168.1.5,unc=\\192.168.1.5\D,vers=2.1,user=user,pass=********
root@orangepipc:/media# ll /media/share_test/
total 16196
/* List of files was ok */

Interesting moment: MAC address of ethernet card changed after change kernel
