Hi, thanks a lot for this attempt! :)
Maybe we will be able to know more.
I tried it and this was the output:
- Code: Select all
root@nas:/mnt # mount.cifs //USB/nasusb remote/ -o rw,iocharset=utf8,user=admin,
password=XXXXX
mount error: cifs filesystem not supported by the system
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)
"USB" is mapped in /etc/hosts as 192.168.0.1. If I use //192.168.0.1/nasusb in the command, I get the same error.
"remote" is a local directory I created under /mnt, to test mounting.
To answer your question, in the Lan I have:
- the router (sharing a disk)
- the NWSP2 NAS (sharing folders)
- a Mint 12 Linux box
- my office Win 7 laptop
From Win and Mint I can mount both NAS's folders and router's disk. No problem.
From the NAS I cannot mount anything the other network units are sharing. I can share FROM the NAS, but I cannot mount ON it.
At least now we have a more specific error. I don't know exactly how the CIFS filesystem could not be supported...
Are there are specific packages that are needed for it? Maybe I can check if I miss something.
I can say I started the installation of the firmware from version 9, as suggested on plugout.net, then I upgraded till 12.1.
I never had problems with the NAS, but now I'm trying to setup the BACKUP and I noticed this issue with mount.
Thanks again for any help! :)
