Dear everyone,<br><br>I've recently bought a NAS disk (<a href="http://smalldrives.com">smalldrives.com</a>) and I'm going round in circles trying to mount it as a disk.<br><br>It knows Samba and Ftp. I can access it as a network folder (smb://) and also read and write via FTP, but mounting the drive as a Samba or Cifs filesystem has me completely foxed. I'm using OpenSuse 10.3 and apparently this no longer supports the smbfs filesystem, so I'm attempting to use Cifs.<br>
<br>Does anyone have a simple recipe that I can follow that includes what services I need to have switched on, and what the contents of the fstab or smbsftab file should look like?<br><br>I have the following in smbfstab<br>
//<drive>/<share> /mnt/<point> cifs username=<me>,password=<mine><br><br>attempting to mount gets me<br>mount error 5 = Input/output error<br>Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)<br>
<br>What I'm aiming to do is to be able to backup to this disk via rsync.<br><br>All hints gratefully received!<br><br>'ö-Dzin<br><br><br><br><br clear="all"><br>-- <br>'ö-Dzin Tridral<br>Caerdydd, Cymru<br>Achos pan ddaw y Pedwar Marchog i ofyn a roist ti o dy gyfan - fydd gen ti ddim esgus - Meinir Gwilym
