[SOLVED] Could not add network share
#1
So far I have not been able to add a network share. My music files are on a Vortexbox NAS with ip address 192.168.1.1 in a folder 'storage' which is mounted as 'files'.

I have created a folder /media/music/vortexbox and tried to mount

//vortexbox.local/files
//vortexbox.local/storage
//vortexbox/storage
///192.168.1.1/files
etc. in all permutations

Als I tried to add a line to /etc/fstab, such as/vortexbox/files /media/music/vortexbox cifs guest,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8 0 0

All to no avail.

Help appreciated!

Cheers, Dennis

*solved*
I finally mounted the network drive after changing /etc/fstab. The result:
//192.168.1.1/files  6.3T  4.8T  1.5T  76% /media/music/vortexbox
:-)
