I am not a geek ;)

2008-11-03 Thread Jeff1981
Hello

I actually am starting the use of OpenBSD thanks to production team.
Please can you help me to pass this error message when I try to connect my
NAS an external drive (a network drive). This works on my other computer but
not from the one on BSD, I have an access error message however the ping to
the NAS server works and so does the FTP via internal IP, so does the SSH
connection.

Only the network drive cannot be connected. Any suggest ?

Thanks and bye
Yrs
Jeff

The network drive is probably an SMB service.  
Look at SMB/Samba Clients to access these.

Hello,

Yes this is Samba on the server.

As suggested by Kevin I am using OpenBSD 4.4. I try to connect via the
assistant of network drive :
- distant location connection assistant
- add a network drive
- Microsoft network drive
then after filling data (server name etc ...) I get an eeror.

The connection was possible using same tool on a Linux distro and even from
the other computer running Xp this works.

2 points :
- connection requires password but here it breaks before asking me password
- is the reason why it does not work the fact that it's a NTFS file system
on the NAS (I don't think so as the protocol only is seen on BSD, not the
file system used on the local NAS server itself).

Thanks for help

Hi Jeff.

For anyone to be able to help you they need, at the minimum, the
version of OpenBSD, how you're attempting to 'connect the network
drive' and the error message you're getting. I'm sure if anyone needs
additional information they'll ask for it.

I think, You need samba client installed on OpenBSD to be able to
authenticate and browse the network drive
