Mounting Network Shares on a Netgear ReadyNas NV+
I'm been struggling on this for weeks to mount a non password protected share for this Nas in Mint 13
when I network browse for the first time to the network shares they work just fine no password needed but when I try to mount them to a direct to make it easier to use on a day to day basis it fails error(13) I used the following: sudo mount -t smbfs //10.1.30.6/Data /mnt/Data -o username=admin,workgroup=workgroup I have tried cifs as well. Having non password protected share there is not docs on how to do it! PLEASE HELP |
Couple of thoughts.
Should be Code:
sudo mount -t smbfs://10.1.30.6/Data /mnt/Data Does /mnt/Data have read-write permissions? What's your smb.conf look like? Quote:

The /mnt/Data is already existing
This is my result: sieberts@sieberts-GA-MA785GM-US2H ~ $ sudo mount -t smbfs://10.1.30.6/Data /mnt/Data Usage: mount -V : print version mount -h : print this help mount : list mounted filesystems mount -l : idem, including volume labels So far the informational part. Next the mounting. The command is `mount [-t fstype] something somewhere'. Details found in /etc/fstab may be omitted. mount -a [-t|-O] ... : mount all stuff from /etc/fstab mount device : mount device at the known place mount directory : mount known device here mount -t type dev dir : ordinary mount command Note that one does not really mount a device, one mounts a filesystem (of the given type) found on the device. One can also mount an already visible directory tree elsewhere: mount --bind olddir newdir or move a subtree: mount --move olddir newdir One can change the type of mount containing the directory dir: mount --make-shared dir mount --make-slave dir mount --make-private dir mount --make-unbindable dir One can change the type of all the mounts in a mount subtree containing the directory dir: mount --make-rshared dir mount --make-rslave dir mount --make-rprivate dir mount --make-runbindable dir A device can be given by name, say /dev/hda1 or /dev/cdrom, or by label, using -L label or by uuid, using -U uuid . Other options: [-nfFrsvw] [-o options] [-p passwdfd]. For many more details, say man 8 mount . |
the result is the same even when I run
sudo mount -t smbfs //10.1.30.6/Data /mnt/Data -o username=admin,workgroup=workgroup |
I assume what you mean by browsing is via a file browser i.e. nautilus?
I would try the following and just press the enter key at the password prompt. sudo mount -t cifs //10.1.30.6/Data /mnt/Data |
nautilus? = Yes I was
its just gives me the Sorry, try again. If I put in the Password for the Readynas web interface login it gives me the :mount error(13): Permission Denied I have ran these same mount commands in Gentoo no problem however I was mount windows based share in Gentoo |
The first password prompt is for your users password to grant sudo privileges which can not be blank. There will be a second prompt which I would expect to be blank. I assume that you do not have to enter a password when accessing the NAS from nautilus.

I guess I could change the termianl to run su all the time then I could remove this confusion

I exited from ther terminal and reopened it and then I ran this command:
sudo mount -t cifs //10.1.30.6/Data /mnt/Data result: prompts for the sudo password first I typed it in and hit enter and it thought for a few seconds and then retured this result: mount error: could not resolve address 10.1.30.6 unknown error |
Post the output of the command:
findsmb It will list the IP address and netbios names. |
