Comment 2 for bug 1691865

Hi Mike, thanks for your report.

The trouble you're having mounting your Windows share as a normal user doesn't appear to be a bug in Déjà-Dup (or any of the other graphical utilities you've tried). So I'm setting this bug's status as "Invalid" (not a bug).

Given that you can mount this share as the super-user using the command line (sudo mount...), it may be a permission issue. You may try using gvfs-mount smb://server/share instead, as a normal user, and the other gvfs-* tools I suppose. Perhaps they will spit out informative output about your issue.

For such a support request I'd recommend one of the StackOverflow websites, probably SuperUser or AskUbuntu. Or, the Answer tracker of the gvfs package on Launchpad (or its Bug tracker if this turns out to be a bug).

Best of luck.
