there is a bug while calling the credential file, the credential
actually ended with a dot even you already remove the last newline.
try this:
yum install ghex (to install)
su - (as root)
ghex2 /your/path/credential-file
you will see something at below
username=user.password=yourpassword. <- this is the dot (0A) is the value.
remove the last dot you will be able to connect. cheers!!!
the dot between user is the separator. do mess anything on that, leave it.

I am having issues mounting windows 2003 share from Fedora 9 (upgrade)
that used to work with Fedora 8.
This command works:
# mount.cifs //192.168.0.1/HomeDirs/useraccount /media/useraccount -o
username=useraccount,password=mypassword
This does not work:
# mount.cifs //192.168.0.1/HomeDirs/useraccount /media/useraccount -o
credentials=/home/useraccount/samba_cred
mount error 13 = Permission denied
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)
Needless to say my fstab entry will not work which worked in Fedora 8:
//192.168.0.1/HomeDirs/useraccount /media/useraccount
cifs rw,credentials=/home/useraccount/samba_cred 0 0
My credentials file, I made sure there are no whitespaces.
$ cat /home/useraccount/samba_cred
username=useraccount
password=mypassword
