so, what if the nas is running xfs? i've been trying to do something like this in antiX (mepis-based distro): mount -t xfs x.x.x.x:/share/music /mnt/share/music but i keep getting an error that says the device x.x.x.x/share/music doesn't exist. i have a winxp machine connected to the nas - the path in windows is \\Homeserver\share\music, so i'm assuming the actual path on the nas is /share/music. i think the "Homeserver" is the just the name assigned to the nas to identify it on the network. is this correct? -- rov ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rov's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10787 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=39246 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
