Help, Intermittent SMB shares, using kerberos and mountnetworkshare.sh

there is definitely an issue with the resource kit script and our enviroment. Somehow its reading the attribute for SMBHome incorrectly...We have a case open with jamf support, but I figured someone else must have ran into this sporadic reading of AD profile path before.

So far ive confirmed that its affecting users who's names start with B and C....here is another example of a user who starts with B. It seems that /B and /C is getting read as an escape character or something in the script...

If you do a "launchctl list" within terminal do you see something like com.jamfsoftware.mapdrive.USERNAME$ ?

I noticed that the script worked the first time but not subsequent times if the share ended with a '$'. On line 247 of the script it is supposed to UNLOAD any existing mounts. But that command is contained within an 'if' clause (line 244) that uses grep to find out if they already exist. If there is a '$' the grep doesn't return any values.

I made a change to line 244:

instead of: $volumeName
Change it to: ${volumeName%$}

Hello Frozen, when i run launchctl list I do not see the properly formatted com.jamfsoftware.mapdrive.username$
I see:
com.jamfsoftware.mapdrive.kibsd-store

kibsd-store is the server the share is located at.

we will take a look at your change @ line 244

Sounds like 2 different issues to me...

Our AD attributes are formatted kind of like this: ServerShare$UserName

Yours appears to be like this: ServerShare_Username$ where each user has their own share.

You are correct, ours are formatted servershareusername$

we have a resolution to our issue, I will have my team member post his edits to the script in a bit.

spowell01 - can you post those edits? I'm having a very similar problem and it would be helpful.

Thanks so much all!
