I find observing first to be helpful with samba: what are the share names, 
workgroup, etc.  smbclient is you friend: 
https://tldp.org/HOWTO/SMB-HOWTO-8.html.

I've done large samba configs long ago.  These days it seems to "just work" as 
long as you've got the correct share, username and password.  I think on a recent install 
inside a friendly network I didn't need the whole samba package (Debian based system) and 
the cifs-utils package was all I needed.  See 
https://www.thomas-krenn.com/en/wiki/Mounting_a_Windows_Share_in_Linux.

Cheers.

Thanks for the reply. I am using an ASUSTOR  Model    AS6404T. It runs
on a *nix.  It has NFS and SMD services. It may have been the wrong
choice, but it is what I now have.  Later I am interested in other
options, but for now I need to get connections to this NAS working.  The
NAS itself works, it is just configuring the network connection and may
also relate ot user/group configurations.

I am looking for someone who can go through teh configuration with me
and help me to find the mistake that I have made.

What flavor are you running for a NAS server?

I found TrueNAS scale to be really easy and simple to set up if you're
looking for other options.

   Hi,

   I have Linux on my older notebook and am trying to connect with a
   NAS on my local LAN. I fail to configure a stable connection.  I
   have tried NFS and also smd (Samba) but am always running into
   problems. I think that it has to do with configurations for
   permissions and
   NFS. / Samba.

   Does anyone have experience wit these issue and can help. I have
   spent so much time with no stable results and am looking for
   anyone can help.

   Best,

   Eric
