Bug#679256: linux-image-3.2.0-2-686-pae: cannot use mount.cifs to mount a subfolder of a windows server share without having access right to the share itself

Package: linux-2.6
Version: 3.2.18-1
Severity: important
Tags: upstream

With kernel 3.2.xx you will no longer be able to mount a subfolder of a Windows 2003 Server share if you don't
have access right to the share itself (of course the user must have access right to the subfolder).

This is also a problem when using some NAS Devices, which give a user only
access rights to a subfolder of a share.

The reason of this is known upstream (see the 8 th reply
to

but doesn't seems  to be easily fixable.

This renders debian in some cases unusable as Windows Client (mounting as
Domain administrator always works 

Reverting back to kernel 2.6.xx fixes the problem!
