[Bug 211631] Re: Network is brought down before network filesystems are unmounted (CIFS timeout at shutdown)

 

I have the same problem:
on
# lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:	Ubuntu
Description:	Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS
Release:	10.04
Codename:	lucid

none of the these options worked for me, short:
- dbus.conf
- K14 links
- S31 earlier
- a modprobe option http://blog.dhampir.no/content/cifs-vfs-no-response-for-cmd-n-mid

the only option that seemed to work i found on
http://hardc0l2e.wordpress.com/2011/06/30/ubuntu-11-04-shutdown-and-restart-problem-with-cifs/

in short:
"
Rename the current shutdown, reboot and restart commands in /sbin.

#> mv /sbin/shutdown /sbin/shutdown2
#> mv /sbin/reboot /sbin/reboot2
#> mv /sbin/restart /sbin/restart2 

2. Then create scripts with names of the previous commands in /sbin,
which contains the following:

#!/bin/sh
umount -t cifs -a -f -l
/sbin/shutdown2 $@
exit 0 

3. Make similar script for reboot and restart command which also points to /sbin/reboot2 and /sbin/restart2.
"
but i also had to change the two links under /sbin,  halt and poweroff to point to reboot2 instead of reboot,
otherwise my machine would shutdown when isuing a shutdown -h now,
but just rebooted instead.

Could this be related to cifs getting mounted twice (when present in
fstab)?

It took me quiet some time, to test, and find a solution.

more output:
i use cifs mount with a vpn connection (cisco),
after mount -a i then get
$mount
..
/dev/sdb1 on /media/terra type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks)
//fas-gt-01/rt on /mnt/rt type cifs (rw,mand)
//fas-gt-02/brt on /mnt/brt_gt type cifs (rw,mand)
//fas-gt-02/EX on /mnt/Ex type cifs (ro,mand)
//fas-gt-02/EX on /mnt/Ex type cifs (ro,mand)
//fas-gt-02/GR on /mnt/gr type cifs (ro,mand)
//fas-gt-02/GR on /mnt/gr type cifs (ro,mand)

So the ro mount are mounted twide..? While the rw get mounted once..
fstab options rw mount:
cifs rw,noserverinfo,uid=1000,gid=1000,file_mode=0750,dir_mode=0750,credentials=/home/user/config/scripts/.cifs.credentials
fstab options rw mount:
cifs ro,noserverinfo,uid=1000,gid=1000,file_mode=0440,dir_mode=0440,credentials=/home/user/config/scripts/.cifs.credentials

i have attached cifs entries in syslog

hth,
G

  I installed smbfs,and then put some entries into /etc/fstab, so they automount on startup. An example of this is here:
  //<ip address of nas box>/<share name>  /home/hamish/<directory name>  cifs  credentials=/home/hamish/.smbcredentials,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,uid=1000,gid=1000  0  0

  ** note the use of "cifs" in the lines above **

  (The username and password are in the .smbcredentials file)

  On startup, for each entry in the /etc/fstab file, I get the following in dmesg:
  [   70.495504]  CIFS VFS: Error connecting to IPv4 socket. Aborting operation
  [   70.495569]  CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -101
  But the shares are mounted, and a nautilus session opens up (which is also annoying...)

  Also logging off with CIFS shares mounted in /etc/fstab, it sits with an error message:
  CIFS VFS: server not responding
  CIFS VFS: no response for cmd 50 mid <this number changes>
  And takes about 2 minutes to timeout. This also happened with Gutsy

  Should the timing of the mounting and dismounting be changed so that
  it works? It is related to the starting of network-manager and CIFS
  shares trying to connect on startup *before* the network is up, and
  dismounting the shares *after* network-manager is stopped.
