b0unc3,

Excellent application, works great for me for most of my shares, save one issue I ran into:

I have a share I want to mount. Considering my credentials for that share, the password has a comma (",") in the password. In the documentation of the CIFS kernel module, they make sure to let you know that this will cause an issue, the workarounds being invoking "mount" with the password set in an environment variable or using a credentials file. I tried both approaches without success, which I believe is attributed to differences between a traditional "mount" and busybox "mount".

Has anyone else run into this issue and successfully resolved this? When I get some free time (ha!) I might look into this a bit more.

EDIT: I downloaded the mount.cifs linked in this thread and ran the appropriate command for using mount.cifs with a credentials file, that worked just fine. Do you think you could bake that into a future release?
