Hi,

I'm getting the followin error message when trying to mount windows server 2012 samba:

Any suggestions?

Can you mount the same share manually?

ssh root@runeaudio
rune (password)

cd /etc/mnt
mkdir TEST
mount -t cifs //ip_address/share_name /mnt/TEST -o username=your_user_name,password=your_password

Hi pacsabi, click on "Show advanced options" at the bottom of the screen of the RuneUI where you edit your network mount, and try to put this in the last field ("Mount flags"):

Code: Select all
-sec=ntlm

The manual mount is working.

Hi,
It is not working unfortunately. I've tried all win7 fixes, but none of them worked.

Previously I was able to mount the same directory with RaspyFi, if it helps.

I had a similar problem. It's documented in in other post: "Can't mount Win7 share from RuneUI".

The error I was getting was "command not found" which suggests a bug in the RuneUI mount function since I was able to mount the share manually. However, after re-imaging the SD card and starting from scratch, the mount from RuneUI worked first time so I'm not sure whats going on.
