Mount is not supported

ScottyCZE · April 26, 2020 at 11:14 AM

Hi, I want to mount my NAS drive but I keep failing on so basic operation as a mount. When I use this:

Code

mount -t cifs //192.168.1.20/video /storage/nasvideo -o vers=3.0,username=myUsername,password=myPass,rw

I get this this result:

Code

mount: mounting //192.168.1.20/video on /storage/nasvideo failed: Operation not supported

So withount this working I can't make anything described in Mounting OS Level Network Shares | OpenELEC Mediacenter

Any idea what to do, please?

Hello maybe better to Take alook at the Libreelec Wiki instead of Openelec

Hi Nicolas, well it's similiar to link which I posted but it is not working. So I wanted to know why it's not working and use just mount command which also wouldn't work.

In your link is a status command which I tried and it returns this:

Code

● storage-nasvideo.mount - cifs mount script
   Loaded: loaded (/storage/.config/system.d/storage-nasvideo.mount; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)
   Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Sun 2020-04-26 11:58:19 CEST; 20h ago
    Where: /storage/nasvideo
     What: //192.168.1.20/video

So I'm reading that operation is not supported but I don't know why or what to change to make it work

Not sure what does that mean. I can't use mount at any time. Not a simple mount via SSH, not via script described in links here. It looks to me like whole mount operation is not possible in LibreELEC. But I have fresh install and doesn't change anything there...

Please provide the output of cat /storage/.config/system.d/storage-nasvideo.mount and ls -al /storage

So cat wrote this (username and password I changed here but it's correct and I tried it from another device):

Code

It shows nasvideo folder but there isn't anything mounted inside.

You haven't told us anything about the software you are using to share the drive (ie. what is your NAS on 192.168.1.20).

Is it a LibreELEC host? Or Windows? Or something else? What version of whatever software are you using?

It looks to me like SMB3 is either not supported or not enabled on the NAS, so you should either enable SMB3 (if the NAS supports it) or try connecting with a lower protocol (ie. vers=2.1, vers=2.0 etc.).

If the NAS only supports SMB1 you may need to include "sec=ntlm" as an option, and of course specify "vers=1.0".

ScottyCZE · April 28, 2020 at 11:56 AM

Thank you very much milhouse! Problem wasn't probably in mount command but really in NAS settings. There was SMB 1-2 allowed. When I increased max supported version to SMB3 it all works. Thank you very much!
