Subject: Re: [Hampshire] Nas mounting problem
I, too, am trying to mount a similar device with something like:
T42:/home/chris# mount //192.168.1.247/ /mnt/LANdisk
(/mnt/LANdisk exists and I can ping 192.168.1.247. )
Response is
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //192.168.1.247/PUBLIC,
       missing codepage or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so
...which gives:
T42:/home/chris# dmesg | tail
sda: Mode Sense: 45 00 00 08
sda: assuming drive cache: write through
 sda: sda4
sd 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi removable disk sda
FAT: utf8 is not a recommended IO charset for FAT filesystems, filesystem 
will be case sensitive!
smb_fill_super: missing data argument
smb_fill_super: missing data argument
smb_fill_super: missing data argument
smb_fill_super: missing data argument
smb_fill_super: missing data argument
To be honest, I don't understand the feedback I'm getting. Can anyone point 
me in the right direction?
Chris.
Try
sudo mount -t smbfs //192.168.1.247/ /mnt/cnfs
I'm guessing the filesystem is only shared via smbfs.   I have a NAS and 
this is what works for me.
Cheers
