Attempting to use a share off of retronas results in

mount: /media/fat/games: cannot mount //192.168.1.200/mister read-only.
games mounted
Done!

ini settings

SERVER="192.168.1.200" confirmed correct
SHARE="mister" is the default and correct
USERNAME="retronas" confirmed correct
PASSWORD="Password that has special characters if that matters" confirmed correct
LOCAL_DIR="*"
WAIT_FOR_SERVER="true"
MOUNT_AT_BOOT="true"

Also tried setting the local directory to games, changing SMB version and nothing has changed
Same retronas deployment works with PS2 OPL, GC, PS3

Research direction

Start by locating the CIF_Mount script and inspecting how it builds and invokes the SMB mount command, including read-only behavior and special-character passwords. Reproduce the failure with the reported retronas settings and compare the generated command with the successful PS2 OPL, GC, and PS3 setup; done means the share mounts successfully without the reported read-only error.
