@xavee, what kind of authentication are you using when mounting the cifs
share? Can you also share the last entries of dmesg when you attempted
mount fails, and ubuntu details (release, cifs-utils package version,
etc).

Title:
  mounting CIFS share failure (cifs_mount failed w/return code = -2)

Status in cifs-utils package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  HOST: Kubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
  LOCALHOST: Kubuntu 17.10


  The system is in an working Active Directory environment (realm,
  sssd). But mounting on commandline using a kerberos ticket is failing:

  
  mount -t cifs -o user=USER,domain=DOMAIN,cruid=USER,sec=krb5 //HOST/share /mnt/tmp
  mount error(2): No such file or directory
  Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

  
  journalctl/syslog:
  CIFS VFS: Send error in SessSetup = -2
  CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -2

  smbclient -k -U USER //HOST/share
  is working and I can list all files in the share.

  smbclient -U USER //HOST/share
  is working too (without kerberos!) and I can list all files in the share.

  using a filemanager with cifs like dolphin is working!
  I can open smb://HOST/share with dolphin without a password (SSO).

  
  Using mount.cifs without kerberos is not working too (in contrast to dolphin and smbclient):

  mount -t cifs -o user=USER,domain=DOMAIN //HOST/share /mnt/tmp
  Password for USER@//HOST/share:  *************
  mount error(5): Input/output error
  Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

  journalctl/syslog:
  Status code returned 0xc000005e STATUS_NO_LOGON_SERVERS
  CIFS VFS: Send error in SessSetup = -5
  CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -5



  Additional tests show me that it is working the other way round:
  mounting Kubuntu 17.10 from Kubuntu 16.04.3 with kerberos (same machines) is working!
  There has to be a change, that is not working anymore with a newer Ubuntu than 16.04.
  Mounting on commandline without kerberos is not working too and I get the same error as above in syslog:
  CIFS VFS: Send error in SessSetup = -5
  CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -5

  
  Anyway, cifs mounting with kerberos stops working in newer distributions, which has to be fixed!
