A windows host creates a CIFS share and gives access to newuser (newuser is the user on windows host)

newuser's password is set as UUUU*123

Windows host has a French Locale installed

Now on linux host a mount command is given as follows (Linux host also has a french locale installed)

mount -v -t cifs \iwf1113140.ind.hp.com\fl -o username=newuser,password=UUUU*123,ver=1,iocharset=utf8,osec=ntlmv2 /some_share_path

The mount command fails with mount error[13] : permission denied. If the password is pure english say 'test123' mount succeeds.

following is the locale output.

LANG=fr_FR.utf8

Is there any idea why this may be happening?

    Hi, A friend of mine destroyed his Nvidia RAID1 array somehow and in trying to fix it, he ended up with a non-working array. Because of the RAID metadata, the actual disk data was stored at an offset from the beginning. I was able to identify this offset with dd and a hexeditor and then I used losetup… >>> More
