Hi all,
I will admit a total lack of knowledge and appreciate (and hope) that
this is probably an easy fix.
Using Ubuntu on the laptop wanting to mount a directory on the server
(Debian) using Samba so that I can backup my data!
using:
mount /media/avrodocs
where fstab has:
//avro/documents /media/avrodocs smbfs
credentials=/etc/.smbcredentials,dmask=777,fmask=777,rw,hard,intr 0 0
(and every other possible combination I can think of!)
returns:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //avro/documents,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
So dmesg | tail returns:
smbfs: mount_data version 1684370019 is not supported
The strange thing is that I can browse the avro server and mount the
directory using nautilus but it seems that directories mounted in the
GUI are not visible in from the command line :(
Thanks
Paul
