Unassigned device smb share won't mount

Featured Replies

I am setting up a new server, but have an issue.  I'm attempting to mount an external NAS as an Unassigned Device for file transfers.  I have the unraid server and NAS each connected to the same router via ethernet cable.

 

I am able to add the NAS as an Unassigned Device by:  

 

  1. Searching for (and locating) the serer
  2. Entering the Username
  3. Entering the Password
  4. Leaving the domain blank
  5. Choosing the Share directory on the NAS

 

At this point, I see the green indicator next to smb.  However, when I click "Mount", the mount box goes grey, says "Mounting" and spins.  After a few seconds, it goes back to "Mount". 


Yesterday, I was able to mount the same NAS and see the files in Krusader.  I can't figure out why it would recognize the server and give me the green indicator, but not mount properly.  I am 100% sure I entered the correct username and password as well - when I search for shares, the appropriate directories appear.  I select the public folder.  

 

I am not sure what I could be doing wrong.  The values under "Source" are //MyServer/MyShare and the value under "Mount Point" is "MyServer_MyShare". 

 

I checked the logs, and get this:

Dec 5 20:34:39 MyServer kernel: CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -13
Dec 5 20:34:39 MyServer unassigned.devices: Mount of '//MyNAS/Public' failed. Error message: 'mount error(13): Permission denied Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) and kernel log messages (dmesg) '.

Dec 5 20:35:12 MyServer unassigned.devices: Mount SMB share '//MyNAS/Public' using SMB default protocol.
Dec 5 20:35:12 MyServer unassigned.devices: Mount SMB command: /sbin/mount -t cifs -o rw,nounix,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,uid=99,gid=100,credentials='/tmp/unassigned.devices/credentials_Public' '//MyNAS/Public' '/mnt/disks/MyNAS_Public'

Dec 5 20:35:12 MyServer kernel: No dialect specified on mount. Default has changed to a more secure dialect, SMB2.1 or later (e.g. SMB3), from CIFS (SMB1). To use the less secure SMB1 dialect to access old servers which do not support SMB3 (or SMB2.1) specify vers=1.0 on mount.

This is strange because I have enabled SMB security in the Unassigned Devices settings.

 

Can anyone offer some guidance on what I could be doing wrong?  I don't understand why it can find the shared directories, accept my select, but fail to mount.
