Bug Description
mount.cifs fails, if just a deep directory is accessible, with "mount error(13): Permission denied"
Example:
//server/
//server: is accessible, for me
//server/share$: is not accessible, for me
//server/
But there is no possibility to force mount.cifs via /etc/fstab or directly to use "share$/access" as prefixpath!
So, mount.cifs try to access automatic this path: //server/share$ with this prefixpath=access. But //server/share$ is not accessible for me.
But mount.cifs should use via /etc/fstab or directly "share$/access" as prefixpath to get access.
Note, there is no problem to access the share via smb://server/
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
