Samba mount on Feisty with credentials option

[4integration]

Hello,

On my Edgy installation I mounted samba shares with this in fstab

//192.168.1.2/movies /home/joacim/Frodo/Movies cifs 	credentials=/home/joacim/.smbcredentials,rw,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,noperm 0 0

The file /home/joacim/.smbcredentials contains:
username=joacim
password=topsecret

When upgraded to Feisty this will not work and I get when mounting (mount -a):

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //192.168.1.2/movies,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so

If I change into:

//192.168.1.2/movies /home/joacim/Frodo/Movies cifs 	user=joacim,password=topsecret,rw,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,noperm 0 0

It works, why is that??

credentials=/home/joacim/.smbcredentials

How about cred= (instead of "credentials=") ... just an idea from my Samba book

No, it didn't work

It should be valid with "credentials=" according to http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man8/mount.cifs.8.html and it did work just fine with Edgy.

Can it be anything with smb.conf (does the client use that when using cifs ??)
