My Win10 work laptop has a network share of a remote windows server. I access it everyday. If i change passwords, i have to remap the share.

I have a linux vm that does the builds for my project. It too has a mounted directory mapped to that remote windows share, using my credentials.

I tried mapping the share in another linux vm but got errors so ended up quitting as it wasn't that important.

However, now i can't access said share in any device, by name or IP address. WTF happened?

The mount command i use in linux is mount -t cifs -o rw,relatime,vers=default,cache=strict,username=my.username,domain=,uid=118,noforceuid,gid=130,noforcegid,addr=10.10.10.10,file_mode=0755,dir_mode=0755,soft,nounix,serverino,mapposix,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,echo_interval=60,actimeo=1 //10.10.10.10/dir1/dir2 /media/remoteshare, the UID/GID are of the user that runs the builds.

I'd get having errors on mounting the remote share, but i'd expect that to be limited to the local computer i was trying to mount on, not that it would propagate to any device that has this share mapped!
