Mount network NTFS drive as NFS

linux-howto

http://askubuntu.com – I have a NTFS NAS mounted on my Ubuntu PC (11.10) to /mnt/nas2/ I wish to set this up as an network drive so my Windows PC can access it. I've tried directly mounting the NTFS NAS to my windows PC, and I can access the files, but my streaming server software does not work with it. my /etc/exports looks like this: /mnt/nas2/ 10.x.x.x(rw,all_squash,async,insecure_locks,no_acl,no_subtree_check,nohide,insecure) my /etc/fstab looks like this: //10.x.x.y/GoFlex\040Home\040Public\Media /mnt/nas2 cifs username=rimiot,password=test%11,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,_net (HowTos)

Stories similar to Mount network NTFS drive as NFS

I am mounting a Windows network drive to my Ubuntu machine and I am getting write permission errors when trying to edit a file.

sudo mount -t cifs

gives me

//MEDIASERVER/A on /home/anon/Media/Overflow/A type cifs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)

and my fstab line is:

//MEDIASERVER/A /home/anon/Media/Overflow/A cifs username=USERNAME,password=PASSWORD,mode=0777,dir_mode=07‌​77 0 0

Anyone good with Fstab, i cant get the share to mount writable,

can write to it when i access through "Connect to server" in Nautilus but i cant write to it when i fstab mount it.

my fstab entry looks like

//192.168.1.**/public /media/pi cifs username=root,password=*******,iocharset=utf8,gid= 1000,uid=1000,nounix,noserverino,file_mode=0777,di r_mode=0777 0 0

any ideas

I've got a NAS that is setup with CIFS and open guest access. I mounted it in fstab with the following fstab line:

//192.168.0.101/Stor1 /media/freenasbox cifs guest,rw,noperm,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0

which appears to work great.

CIFS Question 18 weeks 5 days ago

I have a drive that I share via SMB (CIFS) and today I noticed two large files in the root of the share, one about 2.5GB and the other about 500MB, they are labeled cifsa3f and cifs2cc9.

I am accessing a samba share on an Buffalo Terastation from 10.04. Mounting the share from the desktop (gvfs) and using smbclient works fine, all characters are displayed correctly. However, when I do a permanent mount all 8-bit characters show up as "?" and I get "invalid encoding" errors from the desktop file manager.

I have a drive formatted with NTFS, and named using utf8 characters. When mounted by the system it replaces all unicode with '?' in the drive name. However, it does a fine job handling unicode within the drive itself. The drive name is identified correctly through ntfslabel the important line in fstab:
