I used to have a Windows Vista box hosting a shared drive. It would always work for a while, sometimes for days, but it would always eventually stop sharing. I found a registry hack and that fixed the problem. But then my computer died and I had to buy another one that had Windows 7. Hosting shared drives had the same issue and in that case the hack didn't work. That was an important nudge to get me to use Linux more. More recently--and I wonder if this is relevant to your issue--Ubuntu (at least) Linux had a bug where cifs mounts in fstab would become unavailable pretty quickly and reliably. Weirdly, the workaround was to add vers=[version number] as a mount option. As I adopted the workaround, I am not aware if the actual bug has been fixed yet, nor whether piCorePlayer and Ubuntu share any code. https://askubuntu.com/questions/915549/16-04-cifs-host-is-down-but-they-are-not ------------------------------------------------------------------------ atrocity's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16009 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107720 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
