Hello,

I've some problems mounting some folders, located on NAS-Devices.
One is a old freecom fsg-3, the other one is a newer Netgear Duo.

When I'm mounting the folders into a mountpoint in my user-folder using fstab, i can open, delete, copy or rename files using nautilus without any proplems. But when I open any file with an application - for example with openoffice writer or another application - i can't save the file without problems. I have to save it localy, and then I have to paste it with nautilus. I can't create "working" files at all with an application . But the "save-copies" witch are made for example by openoffice in my user-folder (.../.openoffice/...) will be empty files. In the cifs-folder, the files are created, but are empty (0 Byte) files. When I open existing files I get an error, that openoffice can't create the save-copy. When I try to create files with openoffice, the error message says "General E/A error" (this error-message is translated).

My fstab is like that:
//[IP-Numer-NAS]/[folder] /home/userfolder]/[folder] cifs rw,username=blabla,password=blabla 0 0

On the NAS-devices, uids and gids are different from uids/gids on my workstation, so using nfs is no option, I think. When I mount the folders, using the gnome-menu option "Verbindung zu Server..." everything works fine.
So I think, obviously there is something wrong with my fstab syntax.


Could somebody help me with that?

thx in advance,

Julian
