No route to host: missing cifs-utils package

[peter_b]

[PROBLEM]
Trying to mount an smb/cifs share using a proper, working /etc/fstab entry:

mount: /mnt/inbox/bd1-inbox: mount(2) system call failed: No route to host.

The same config works perfectly on another machine - and the IP route to host (including name-resolution) works perfectly.

[SOLUTION]

Code: Select all

$ apt install cifs-utils
