I’m a newb, but here I go. I’m running Ubuntu Server 23.10 and I have been trying to mount a NAS to it for days. Right up front I should mention that I have GNOME desktop installed and I can see as well as MOUNT any of the 4 shares using the GUI, but I want to be able to do this from the command line via SSH for example. I feel like I have been to the ends of the internet for clues, but nothing seems to work. At this point I am also wondering if I’m missing something very fundamental, like, “Oh you can’t do that”.
The NAS is PC based, running TrueNAS-SCALE-22.12.3.1. and there are 4 “Windows (SMB) Shares” on it. It’s ip address is 192.168.68.63 and if I ping it with “truenas.local” I get a proper response. PING truenas.local (192.168.68.63) 56(84) bytes of data.
My fstab file contains this line: /192.168.68.63/TrueNAS /mnt/nas cifs username=slingshot,password=bur$t,workgroup=WORKGROUP,iocharset=utf8 0 0
When I run: mount – a, I get this error: mount.cifs: bad UNC (/192.168.68.63/TrueNAS)
When I run: mount -t cifs //192.168.68.63/SFX /mnt/nas -o username=slingshot,password=bur$t,workgroup=WORKGROUP iocharset=utf8I get this error: mount: bad usage
When I run: smbclient -L 192.168.68.63I get all of this (correct) information:
