Hi ortegacomp! I am glad that i could help you! You have probably already solved the problem with the mounting of smb shares in Linux. I have no smb shares to mount but i would follow the following guide if i had to. https://www.linode.com/docs/guides/linux-mount-smb-share/ Good luck!

Hi Woodcogger, i am happy that my little guide helped you. In my use case i use the nas only sometimes for archiving so I shut id down to save on electricity and mount again every time I need it. If you want to mount permanently then explore the fstab solution that TTE77 writes about. I thought about you other problem and I think the problem lies with the space in path "TV shows" You must use "" for path like this ip:"/mnt/user/TV shows" if you have spaces or change the folder names to TVshows and KidsShare. Be careful of the upper-lower case. Linux is much more strict about it than windows. Try this and tell me if it works.

Hi I looked all over the internet to find a simple way to mount an unraid NFS share in linux. I was suprised that i could not find a simple guide and had to find mine own solution from information snippets here and there. If there is a better guide that i have missed, then i ask for an apology for poluting the internet with unneeded information. Unraid Version: 6.12.3 Ubuntu desktop 20.04.6 LTS In unraid Enable NFS (Settings > NFS) Add a share (Shares > Add share) [lets call the share "unraidshare1"] Share settings, NFS Security Settings ---Export: Yes ---Security: Private [You can choose Public, in that case it is not nescessery to enter Rule] ---Rule: 192.168.1.33(sec=sys,rw) [the ip number is the ip of your ubuntu desktop, here just an example] On your Ubuntu dekstop Install NFS if you don't have it allready, in terminal: sudo apt update sudo apt install nfs-common Create a folder where you want to mount the unraid share for example sudo mkdir -p /media/unraidshare1 and then mount the unraid share sudo mount -t nfs 192.168.1.30:/mnt/user/unraidshare1 /media/unraidshare1 [here the ip number is the ip of the unraid server and, "/mnt/user/unraidshare1" is the real share directory in unraid] to unmount use sudo umount 192.168.1.30:/mnt/user/unraidshare1 I hope this guide will help some people with the same problem, i felt allmost desperate before i got the pieces together. Feel free to correct me or ask me questions as long as they are not too complicated as i am just a linux beginner.
