Re: pam_mounted cifs shares get unmounted upon inserting USB

[iinfi]

on my sled 11 i added the machine to windows AD domain.
i managed to mount cifs shares from windows fileserver successfully using pam_mount, after modifying the pam_mount.conf.xml file

we have around 150 users in different departments and each bunch of users have different set of drives (total no. of shared drives in the windows file server is close to 30). So i stored a single pam_mount conf file on an ftp server and regularly sync it with all the machines using cron jobs and wget.

the drives mount flawlessly and work fine for all users.
the issue which i face is, when any user inserts a USB storage device like a pendrive, the cifs mounted drives get unmounted.
i dont know what the reason is.
