I'm not sure that I'm the best person to walk you through this, but let's try. This is not a generic solution, but it works for me. I'm using Ubuntu, which is a debian derivative, but there could be subtle differences.
1. Set up the mount point, being sure to include the leading slash. As you've noticed, you have to do this as superuser (aka "su" or root): mkdir /mnt/share 2. Mount the LS on the mount point you just created. It appears that your system doesn't have the necessary cifs support files, so let's try using smbfs. Also note that it's username=mike instead of user=mike (that might be a debian/fedora subtlety -- sorry for misleading you). mount -t smbfs //192.168.1.183/share /mnt/share -o username=mike And you should then be prompted for your password. NOTE: The IP address shown, username, and password all refer to the information for your LinkStation, and not for the debian box. Good luck, and let me know how it goes. If this works, there are ways to streamline things. -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=26720 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
