Problems with mounting share from other unraid box in main unraid box

Featured Replies

Hi all,

 

I'm trying to mount the movies share from my second unraid box into my main unraid box where SAB is running to get the movies in the right place.

both boxes are running v5.0, SABnzbd is v 0.7.16

 

I'm using these commands to get the share mounted, but i still get  the msg

PostProcessing was aborted (Cannot create final folder /mnt/movies/My.Holiday.Movie (2003) 720p BrRip x264 )

 

# 1. Create the mount point
root@mediaserver:/boot/config# mkdir -p -m a=rwx /mnt/movies

# Show me the access rights
root@mediaserver:/boot/config# ls -ld /mnt/movies
drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 0 2013-10-31 11:24 /mnt/movies/

# 2. Change ownership
root@mediaserver:/boot/config# chown nobody:users /mnt/movies/

# Show me the access rights
root@mediaserver:/boot/config# ls -ld /mnt/movies
drwxrwxrwx 2 nobody users 0 2013-10-31 11:24 /mnt/movies/

# 3. Mount the movies
root@mediaserver:/boot/config# mount -t cifs -o username=guest,password= //192.168.176.120/Movies /mnt/movies

# Show me the access rights
root@mediaserver:/boot/config# ls -ld /mnt/movies
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 2013-10-31 00:01 /mnt/movies/

# Show me the access rights
root@mediaserver:/boot/config# ls -ld /mnt/movies/"My.Holiday.Movie (2002)"
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 2012-02-20 15:37 /mnt/movies/My.Holiday.Movie\ (2008)/

 

I put the "show access rights" between each step to see what is going on and notice that after step 3 the access rights have changed.

 

I hope there is some body who can give me pointers to get this working, because i know that i can not use unc path's in SAB on unraid

 

Regards

Rob.

 

Try:

su -c "mount -t cifs -o username=guest,password= //192.168.176.120/Movies /mnt/movies" nobody

Try:

su -c "mount -t cifs -o username=guest,password= //192.168.176.120/Movies /mnt/movies" nobody

 

Would have been a neat trick, unfortunately it did not mount the share at all.

I got no errors in the terminal, this is what i found in syslog

Oct 31 21:29:13 mediaserver su[10064]: Successful su for nobody by root
Oct 31 21:29:13 mediaserver su[10064]: + /dev/pts/0 root:nobody

Can you change the permissions after it's mounted?

  • Author

No, i have tried that before already.

the permissions stay the same after mounting.

 

Rob.

 

Try:

mount -t cifs -o username=guest,password=,umask=007,gid=100,uid=99 //192.168.176.120/Movies /mnt/movies

  • Author

Sorry this gives an error msg.

 

root@mediaserver:/mnt# mount -t cifs -o username=guest,password=,umask=007,gid=100,uid=99 //192.168.176.120/Movies /mnt/movies
mount error(22): Invalid argument
Refer to the mount.cifs( manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)
