Mount issue

Dear,
Could you help to the following issue of mount?

It doesn't like you giving it a password. You don't do that with mount.

lvm_ · 04-21-2023, 03:12 AM

User and password are options and as such must be preceded with -o (mount -o user=james -o password=Hm32... and so on. Yes, you exposed your credentials, if this server is public, change them at once. In future paste text as text, not as screenshots, or at least censor it properly, and not with airbrush tool.

Oops! Yes, they are options to mount.cifs, which apparently mount invokes in the case of a cifs filesystem. You learn something every day.

It's not the passord that is the problem, it's the fact that you haven't signalled to mount that these are options and not primary arguments. Do what lvm_ says and put the options marker -o in front of them, then give all the options in a comma-separated list.

Can you help to the following? Is it missing commas to it?

What operating system / version is running on the server?

What operating system / version is running on the client?

Are the share and permissions configured correctly on the server?
Is the firewall allowed incoming CIFS connections?

I run this on Ubuntu 22.04 OS, to back up the OS, into Windows 2019 server. I usually create the backup (of the other OS) in the same way, into the same Windows 2019 server remotely, and everything is fine.

Make sure the server is using smb versions 2+

Ant_1985 · 04-28-2023, 11:05 PM

SMB on Ubuntu 22.04, right?

michaelk · 04-29-2023, 05:43 AM

SMB on the Windows 2019 server.

Ant_1985 · 05-03-2023, 04:29 AM

I've enabled SMB on Windows 2019 server and was having the issue like the following. Please help

You forgot the mount point for the share i.e

Code:

mount -t cifs -o user=xxxx //server/share /mnt
