4 port USB network server via TCP/IP
I am running Fedroa 20 64 bit. Gnome 3 desktop
Recently I was given a 4 port USB network server. the connection to the network being by TCP/IP. I thought this would be ideal to plus a couple fo my USB Hard drives into and make then available on the home network for the other machines as part of the family network.
I can get Thunderbird to see the web page of the device (there is no manufactures name or model no on the device or the packing except to say it is made in China). So I have been unable to see if there is any special instructions to be able to view the plugged in USB hard drives drives on he USB network server.
Looking at similar devices, there does not seem to any one supporting linux as one of he operating systems.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how to get the server to work on a linux box.
Can I mount the device in the normal way? what files system needs to be entered jn the mount command? etc etc. Yes I will have to set up a folder in mnt or media folders for the mount command.
Be interested to hear how to set one of these up.
