I have a Synology NAS. On my new laptop and on my desktop I have the
following line in fstab:

192.168.1.115:/volume1/Synology /media/jjj/Synology nfs auto,user 0 0

On both computers I can access the Synology easily with the GUI file
manager. 'Synology' appears in Places and all I have to do is click on
it. I loves me my GUI. :)

For the old Thinkpad I added the same line to its fstab, then rebooted.
'Synology' does not appear under Places. I can look in the folder where
it's supposed to mounted, but the folder is empty. I tried 'mount -all'
and got:

mount: /media/jjj/Synology: bad option; for several filesystems (e.g.
nfs, cifs) you might need a a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program.

I should add that the Synology is set to 192.168.1.0/24. And I can log
into the router from the old Thinkpad. From ifconfig I see that the old
Thinkpad has IP addresses 192.168.1.180 (wifi) and 192.168.1.249
(ethernet).

Suggestions?
