           Summary: mount with //10.1.9.55/c$ doesn't work, with
                    //10.1.9.55\\c$ works
           Product: File System
           Version: 2.5
     KernelVersion: 2.6.23.1
          Platform: All

            Status: NEW

Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: 2.6.22.5
Distribution: LFS
Hardware Environment: VMWare on x86
Software Environment: LFS
Problem Description:
When I try to mount windows share with this command:
  mount -t cifs -o username=xx,password=xx //10.1.9.55/c$ /mnt/d
it doesn't work.

If i use:
  mount -t cifs -o username=xx,password=xx //10.1.9.55\\c$ /mnt/d
it works.

Comment from cifs\netmisc.c

int cifs_inet_pton(int address_family, char *cp, void *dst)
{
        int ret = 0;

        /* calculate length by finding first slash or NULL */
        /* BB Should we convert '/' slash to '\' here since it seems already
         * done before this */ 

So before it was converted, but now not.
