[Bug 1235013] Re: 13.10-Network (cifs) drives do not load.

[Steve Langasek]

In the latest log I do see the network mounts being attempted several
times, but with no trigger shown in the log.  That seems to be
consistent with the mountall-net.log, which shows mountall isn't there
to be signalled.  What does the network configuration for this machine
look like?  Are you using /etc/network/interfaces, NetworkManager, or
something else to manage your networks, and how many network interfaces
does this client have?

Once the system is booted, is mountall still running? ('sudo initctl
status mountall')  Have you modified any of the mountall upstart jobs in
the past?  (Please run 'apport-collect -p mountall 1235013' to attach
information about the package state to the bug.)

  Since the release of beta2, I haven't been able to load network drives listed in fstab:

  # <file system>                          <mount point> <type> <options>                                                  <dump><pass>

  //192.168.1.13/Homes  /mnt/Homes  cifs  credentials=/home/pat/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm  0  0

  from mountall-net.log:

  /proc/self/fd/9: 3: kill: No such process
  /proc/self/fd/9: 3: kill: No such process

  When I open Dolphin and click on the "device' Shares on 192.168.1.13:

  An error occurred while accessing 'Shares on 192.168.1.13', the system
  responded: mount: only root can mount //192.168.1.13/Shares on
  /mnt/Shares

  At the end of the boot process, the very last line says:

  Loading network drives    [ok]

  My fstab loading of cifs drives worked beautifully until 13.10 (12.04, 12.10, 13.04). I've tried with and without options:
  auto, noauto, _netdev, sec=ntlm, sec lanman
