Cannot mount share on server


I just formatted my hard drive on a Dell D600 and installed Ubuntu 8.04. I am trying to mount the shares on my server, which is a Gateway running Fedora Core 5. I run the command:
Code:
 sudo mount acsserver:/music /music
Code:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on acsserver:/music,
       missing codepage or helper program, or other error
       (for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might
       need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program)
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so
I was able to mount the shared just fine before reinstalling. I am having this issue on workstation also. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Todd

OK, I figured it out. I needed to install nfs-common. All works now.
