Unable to mount "Volume1" folder on NAS

$

0

To copy a patch file to the NAS I have on my network, I need to excess the Volume1 folder.

Usually I mount my NAS with Samba, but when I do that I have no access to the Volume1, and the invisible folders in there.

I have tried:

sudo mount 192.168.0.200
sudo mount 192.168.0.200:/volume1

But both commands give the error:

can't find in /etc/fstab.

I assume i have to configure /etc/fstab correctly, but i don't know how really, but for one, I do not see fstab folder in /etc.

Also I am not sure how to deal with the username and password issue.

A pointer in the right direction would be much appreciated.


In reply to the answer by Jos: I did the following.

sudo mkdir /mnt/vol
sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.0.200/volume1 /mnt/vol

The error message was:

mount: /mnt/vol: bad option; for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program.

The following error message was:

mount error(2): No such file or directory
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

The output of smbclient -L 192.168.0.200 was:

This is what needs to be done according to this thread, but from windows remote instead of Linux.

What to do when copying?

  1. In ADM Services > Enable "Terminal" port 22
  2. Download WinSCP from "https://winscp.net/eng/download.php"
  3. Install WinSCP as a Commander type
  4. Run WinSCP
  5. Create connection -> protocol "SCP" + host "your ip NAS" + port 22 + username "root" and password.
  6. After success connect > on the right panel goto / and copy volume1 (you must find volume1 from download dropbox in left side panel) from the left side to the right side .

Just got a phone call from a friend that was coming over. I asked if i could borrow his laptop (windows) to do this and got it fixed easily. I love Ubuntu, but sometimes the use of Windows can be very helpful, unfortunately.

Still I would love to be able to do this through Ubuntu too.
