You should be able to see the mount using gvfs-mount. In Debian the mount point from nautilus would be under /run/user/. You don't say exactly what happens when you try a manual mount - unless "nothing" is a full description, of course. If you looked on the server you might find helpful logs. (I'm assuming you have cifs-utils installed .) Then "mount -v -t cifs //server/mount mountpoint -o user=nobody" should work and provide useful information. You could equally well put this in to .bashrc rather than in a Template, or add an entry to /etc/fstab using the mechanism in /rw/config/rc.local. unman Thx unman. gvfs-mount did not work for me. I do not no why, maybe it is not install? I tried the suggestion you made for cifs and first it did not work but it seems I did not have it installed. I thought because my fileserver mounted in nautilus that everything needed is installd. I installd cifs and now mountnig works well. Your idea for the .bashrc is good because it is better I keep changes to the template minimuml.

Re: [qubes-users] MP3 support but SMB issues on DebVM or SMB support with MP3 issues on FedVM?
Create a mount unit in your template of the Deb VM, which does the mount. Have it WantedBy=multi-user.target. Enable it. Add a ConditionPathExists=/var/run/qubes-service/mediamount to the unit. Power off the template and the Deb VM. Thru Qubes Manager, add a Qubes service to the DebVM, naming it mediamount. Power on the template. Bam, now that thing mounts only in the Deb VM. I have an Ansible play for this. Will publish it soon.
