Title:
  mount.cifs fails on mount DFS linked share

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  mount.cifs fails to mount a DFS linked share on 12.04, this behaviour
  worked fine on 10.04.

  The DFS structure is:

  \\SERVER1\TEST\SHARE-LINK which goes to \\SERVER2\LINKED-SHARE .

  Mounting running:

  $ sudo mount -t cifs //server1/TEST/SHARE-LINK /mnt/dfs-mount -o
  user=Administrator

  ..fails on a precise machine, while it works on lucid.

  My tests show that:

  10.04 | mount.cifs works on oneiric and precise kernels.
  12.04 | Stock kernel fails with both precise's mount.cifs and with lucid's mount.cifs compiled.
