We have two ubuntu machines running docker + kubernetes and they need to access a windows share.
The first one is setup in /etc/fstab :
//dfs/Archive01 /mnt/dfs cifs rw,cred=/etc/cifspasswd,forceuid,forcegid 0 1
And it works, after executing mount -a we can get to the directories.
But doing the same config on machine 2 we get the dreaded "no route to host" error when trying to mount.
ping dfs
comes back with an ip-address so that works.
ip -4 addr show on the machine that's working shows:
- ens160: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP group default qlen 1000 altname enp3s0 inet 10.203.32.80/24 brd 10.203.32.255 scope global ens160 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
- docker0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP group default inet 10.200.200.20/24 scope global docker0 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
- vxlan.calico: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1450 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default inet 10.244.255.192/32 scope global vxlan.calico valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
And on the failing machine ip -4 a says:
- ens160: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP group default qlen 1000 altname enp3s0 inet 10.203.32.81/24 brd 10.203.32.255 scope global ens160 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
- docker0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state DOWN group default inet 10.200.200.21/24 brd 10.200.200.255 scope global docker0 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
- vxlan.calico: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1450 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default inet 10.244.161.0/32 scope global vxlan.calico valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
dmesg says:
CIFS: Unable to determine destination address
No clue why it's failing on the 2nd and working on the 1st. Got a feeling it has to do with the calico networks but not sure how to debug.
Anyone knows how to fix this or at least where to check?

Found the solution.
Forgot to install cifs-utils and keyutils on the second machine.
so just doing
sudo apt-get install keyutils
