This section contains information about HP CIFS Client error messages for the following commands:

  • cifsclient

  • cifsmount

  • cifslogin

  • cifsumount

  • cifslogout

  • cifslist

userdb: cannot open file

/var/opt/cifsclient/cifsclient.udb

cifsclient was unable to open the user database file for the reason given in the message. This is normal if HP CIFS is started the first time or if nothing has been stored in the user database so far.

userdb: database file is incompatible

cifsclient has found a user database file, but this file was written by a different version of HP CIFS Client. For security reasons, all versions of HP CIFS Client (even from different compiler runs) are incompatible in this respect.

ipcclient: error connecting to daemon: ...

The commandline utility was not able to connect to the HP CIFS Client daemon. The detailed unix error message is given. Most probably the daemon is not running.

LOC: Server can't encrypt passwords, use option to override

Your server does not support encrypted passwords. HP CIFS Client refuses to send passwords in clear text by default. You can override this with the -u option. You should be aware, however, that anyone with a network sniffer can read your unencrypted password on the network. Almost every Unix machine can be turned into a network sniffer. HP CIFS Client also refuses to store unencrypted passwords in the user database.

error: DOS: Access denied

The username/password pair you supplied was not accepted by the server. You may try to supply the username explicitly with the -U option.
