Samba: mount error 2 = No such file or directory

Post by ^rooker »

[PROBLEM]
While trying to mount a samba share declared in /etc/fstab, I received the following error:
mount error 2 = No such file or directory
I've double-checked hostname, share name, path - and they all were correct.

[SOLUTION]
Surprisingly, I've had a typo in the username used to mount the share in /etc/fstab.

Fixed the username = fixed the problem. ;)
