Could the path be something longer like IPADDRESS/share/VOLUME_DATA/public/Music

Try this:

In the morning, go back to the Joggler Webserver mounting screen.

Set the PC Name as the IP of the NAS.
Then in the folder name, try nas/Music (or your version of music)
Then set the mountpoint and add data.
Then see if it scans anything in LMS.

If that fails, in PC name set it as your IP/nas
Then folder as Music etc. etc.

Some info here: http://knowledge.seagate.com/articles/e ... Q/209791en

Could it be:

Ip-address/DataVolume/Public/Muzeik

???

But, from error's info earlier, I'd try /DATA/Public/Muzeik

I think it's going to be hit'n'miss trying various options!

Yeah, I found that too. Need to try those as well as my nas/ idea too.

I've posted on the Seagate forum for advice - somebody MUST know!

Just seen this on some other forum:

'then just pointed the Sonos to \\nasname\Public'

Which would suggest the /Public/Muzeik might be the path ?

Ridiculous that it's so difficult to discover the network path ....

I tried this with various names.

mount: bad address 'Data'
mount: mounting //Data/Muziek on /media/media/media-share1/ failed

So it seems it can't address the server?

Each of above should NOT have the final / on /media/media/media-share1/

/bin/busybox.new mount -t cifs //Peekserver/Muziek /media/media/media-share1 -o ro,user=Joggler,password=Joggler,_netdev

Also use //192.168.0.13 each time - just change the /Sharename

Please try the following:

/DATA/Public/Muziek

/DATA/Muziek

/Public/Muziek

and another:

/DataVolume/Muziek


We're looking for the combo which doesn't return an error. If you get lucky, then do:

ls /media/media/media-share-1

Re: PNPIII - trying to get NAS mounted for LMS

And /nas/Muziek

/nas/Public/Muziek

I've noticed in the sporadic info on the Seagate nas that often the UNC path is specified as:

//ipaddress:/sharename

Notice the colon?

Any idea why the colon is used? never seen that syntax before, myself.

Ooo. Something else to try.

Re: PNPIII - trying to get NAS mounted for LMS

Is there a way to look to how UPnP finds the server? Because that does find it. Can we in a way retrieve how it calls the server? With the use of PuTTY or something??

Another thing is, I made the NAS entirely public. So there's no logging in. I guess this does effect the way I have to setup the mount right? I should not need a user and password I suppose? So right now I'm trying all the suggestions. I use all the suggestions as the name of the share, this is OK right? Server name I fill in 192.168.0.13.

oh and another thing; should I use slashes or backslashes? / or \ ?

Edit: thing is, with all the options I can get Joggler Webserver get to say its mounted. With or without usernames, passwords etc.. Isn't that strange

Hm is this interesting?

Code: Select all

# /bin/busybox.new mount -t cifs //192.168.0.13/Muziek /media/media/media-share1 -o ro,user=Joggler,password=Joggler,_netdev
mount: mounting //192.168.0.13/Muziek on /media/media/media-share1 failed: Invalid argument
# /bin/busybox.new mount -t cifs //DATA/Muziek /media/media/media-share1 -o ro,user=Joggler,password=Joggler,_netdev
mount: bad address 'DATA'
mount: mounting //DATA/Muziek on /media/media/media-share1 failed
# /bin/busybox.new mount -t cifs //Data/Muziek /media/media/media-share1 -o ro,user=Joggler,password=Joggler,_netdev
mount: bad address 'Data'
mount: mounting //Data/Muziek on /media/media/media-share1 failed
#
first code returns "invalid argument"
second and third returns "bad address.."

the result is all the same, nothing mounted at all..
I suppose if it were mounted with ls media/media/media-share1 I should see all the directories with music right?

There's something strange happening

Just putting in the IPaddress of Server, together with "Muziek" as Share, and no user and passw (for this is the exact situation) results in a turning wheel which says "Waiting on 192.168.0.12" (= Joggler)

All other options result in "share configured"...

Have you tried all the combinations suggested shown above?

I HAD to assign a username and password for it to work. It didn't work for me at all without a username and a password.

You are not being consistent in the mount command!

In the above failures you've missed out the //192.168.0.13 address.

I have to use

username=guest,password=

for my NAS

But, try the various options above again

We must be able to solve this.


Example 1

/bin/busybox.new mount -t cifs //192.168.0.13/Muziek /media/media/media-share1 -o ro,user=guest,password=,_netdev



Then same again but omit the user pass bits.


You can Copy the above commands - in terminal click right-click and the command will be pasted

I've discovered that the colon is used when it's NFS shares ... so we can forget about using it, at the moment, as we are trying to get CIFS working.

I keep coming across this as the default UNC

//192.168.0.13/DataVolume/Public/Muziek

Can you please try that?
