For some things there are definitely other ways to do this, and perhaps some people are overlooking or are unaware of those other ways. For example, the plex application itself has the ability to access media over SMB, so there is no need to remote mount that media in Unraid. Possibly other applications have similar capability.

This was this post: What did you mean "the plex application itself has the ability to access media over SMB, so there is no need to remote mount that media in Unraid" how?

After some googling I can't find any way to do what I thought I remembered doing with plex and my hpmediavault. I think I must have been using XBMC instead of plex at that time.

OK - Do anyone know if it's possible to do the SMB or NFS connect in the docker config using the Path option?

No

 

A ton a containers do not support SMB directly which means that you have to use the mount via unassigned devices.  There is no problems with doing this.

 

But, (caveat emptor), if the remote mount isn't on 24/7, but the container is on 24/7, then you may or may not run into trouble if the container cannot handle a mount going offline properly.  YMMV

Hi.

 

The Server do not seem to recognise smb devices, not finding NAS or MBPro. Both are set up smb. What is the domain setting, Workgroup?

 

I be happy for any help.

What happens when you click on the 'SEARCH FOR SERVERS' button?  Does it find your servers?

 

Domain is for a server on a Domain.  Typically a Windows server.

The Search Button blinks, and nothing happens.

Set up the share using the ip address, share name and credentials.  The try to mount it.  After that post diagnostics.

It looks like you have a problem with your server IP address.  Be sure the server is available on the same sub-net and the shares are set for SMB sharing.  Only enter the IP address as '192.168.1.10'.  Nothing else.

 

You should be able to enter the IP address and then click 'Load Shares' and the list of shares will show.  If not, unRaid cannot see the server.

You would know best, but on my logs, there's always a sharename listed on that line...

That's what is confusing to me.  I don't understand exactly what he is doing.  I believe he may be overthinking it and trying to do everything manually.

 

If he can't enter the IP address and get a share listing, his server is not being seen by unRaid.

Hidden Shares?

 

But, looks like if you don't enter in a share name then UD doesn't do anything.

 

But, if you enter in a space for the share name, then the exact same logging takes place...

I only have one subnet on my router. 192.168.1.10, as Qnap NAS, is set up smb/Workgroup, not AD. The Nas is fully available to other computers. With Goodsync I have made smb sync between the Nas and the unRaid server. 

 

After typing 192.168.1.10 only and push the "search for servers" button, nothing happens. Well, a small "blink", that's all. Adding user/pass and then push Load shares, no shares is visible. 

 

Please see attached video for how I do it. 

 

Router is restarted.

You are not following the instructions you get. Type in the IP, then push load shares. Not find servers.

You aren't filling in a share.  Leaving it empty will fail.

Hidden shares will show up in the list of shares.  It looks like the share name either not entered or blanks is not being handled very well.

 

EDIT: I stand corrected.  Hidden shares don't show.

I don't know what Goodsync is.  Can you browse the shares with a Windows computer?  Do you have any Windows computers on your network?

Actually, he did not do as I asked, but what he did should still work to display the shares.  When trying to mount a Windows computer share, you actually have to enter the login credentials or the shares won't be shown.

Yes. Yes.

 

Pushing the "Load shares" button not shares are available, and not possible to type. Not pushing the "Load shares" button, instead typing the share name and then add without pushing "Load shares" is possible. Then pushed the button "Mount".  Then it the button shows "Mounting" and stays there until I move to another area of the Server. I then get a question from Safari if I want to store the password. Just ignoring that, going back to Main. And hola, now the share on the Nas is mounted.

 

So ignoring "Load servers" and "Load shares" buttons did the trick. A bit confusing I have to say. 

 

Thank you very much for the help.

I'm going to make a few changes to make the dialog easier to use.
