Remove the double quotes from username and password options in fstab - it doesn't like them.

Works perfectly! Thanks a lot, both for your immediate help here and your development works!

3) The following should work:

Code

sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.0.18/Videos /media/pismb -o vers=3.0,guest

...

4) In terms of your fstab settings, I think the following should work for you:

Code

//10.19.64.3/Movies  /media/OpenelecMovies  cifs  vers=3.0,guest,uid=1000,users  0  0
//10.19.64.3/TV\040Shows  /media/OpenelecTVShows  cifs vers=3.0,guest,uid=1000,users  0  0

Hi Milhouse,

thank you for your help. I have a similar problem and managed to mount my LibreELEC smb share to my Lubuntu system with your explaination using sudo mount ...

sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.178.40/hddrive2go /media/LibreELECshare -o vers=3.0,username="myuser",password="mypassword"

However, I still fail to automatically mount the share using fstab. My fstab entry is similar to the one you explained above, but I use a password authentification:

//192.168.178.40/hddrive2go  /media/LibreELECshare cifs  uid=1000,vers=3.0,username="myuser",password="mypassword",users 0 0

In the Lubuntu File Manager PCManFM the fstab mounted share appears, but doesn't seem to be mounted as there is not "Unmount button" next to it. When I try to access the share there is an error Message

mount error(13): Permission denied
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

As explained, the manual mount works fine, so where is the error in my fstab entry?
