After an upgrade (to gifs-utils 6.7, my mount.cifs stop to mount a samba NAS with protocol SMB1.

my error was:
mount error(112): Host is down
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

With the actual repository cifs-utils is at 6.7 and is not possible to upgrade to 6.8

So I download cifs-utils 6.8 from the samba web site and install it.

after I put "vers=1.0" option in #mount.cifs -o \\nas \\mntfolder -vers=1.0

and now all works!!!

step:

remove old installation:
apt-get remove cifs-utils

download needed package:
sudo su
mdir tmp
cd tmp
wget https://download.samba.org/pub/linux-cifs/cifs-utils/cifs-utils-6.8.tar.bz2
tar -jxvf cifs-utils-6.8.tar.bz2

configure installation:
./configure --prefix=/usr \
            --disable-pam \
            --disable-systemd &&
make

and finally:
make install

after installation you can use the vers=1.0 option (or 2.0, 2.1, 3.0) to mount the network folder.

ore add the vers option in /etc/fstab

Hope to help you!
