Hi guys
firstly, please go gentle on me, it's been over 10 years since I played with linux and compared to the speed of windows, I would like to get back into using linux as its soo much faster.
Most problems I google and see if I can suss out the answer but afraid I need help with this one lol
I'm trying to learn how to mount my nas device (HDD Quad Bay Giganas) to my fedora16, been reading about and as far as I can suss out I just need to add the following command:
Quote:
|
mount //JaSonic-Nas1/public -t ext3 /mnt/md1 -o "username=yep,password=yep"
|
but when I su in and type that I get:
Quote:
|
mount: special device //JaSonic-Nas1/public does not exist
|
I have tried it with the IP address and got the same result
Quote:
|
mount //192.168.1.82/public -t ext3 /mnt/md1 -o "username=yep,password=yep"
|
Can someone please tell me where I am going wrong, I would be much appreciated.
I can confirm that the IP address is correct, as is the hostname, and also that the nas is on the same workgroup.
I did manage to create a network drive on my old windows machine using //JaSonic-Nas1/public and that worked fine :S
Do I need to add this to my /etc/fstab so it auto mounts on reboot ?
Cheers in advance for your expertise
